Can we expose the EditForm code?

Closed this issue 3 years ago · 9 comments

First of all this is fantastic! My question is often when building a form we have some wonky CSS and or business requirements that require us to have full control over the HTML. Is it possible to just generate the EditForm so we can easily modify it for special situations? Thanks!

Just to be more specific, I am wondering if we can output the input fields and what is in the RenderFormElements

hi @longhornleads,

If i understand your question correctly. You want to dynamicly create the editform and than attach it to an already created html form?

Yes, that would be pretty awesome. Basically just have an extension that would create an edit form from the model. Then the developer could take it from there.

Sorry about the delay... parenthood isn't giving me the time I want for this baby :). let me investigate this approach this week. I'll come back on this.

Did you ever get a chance to look at this one? It would be really awesome to be able to just simply generate the EDITFORM fields from a POCO in such a way that we can interact directly with them. This library is awesome but I think it's a pretty huge oversight that you cannot just right click on an annotated POCO and generate a razor component. This library does it when it renders the form but we would love to have it just render the code for the component.
