Sample SPA application demonstrating ASP.NET 5 features
This is the sample code for the Album Viewer sample application from the CoDe Magazine Article A First Look at ASP.NET vNext and various vNext blog posts from Rick Strahl's Web Log.
This sample is a Mobile Web enabled album viewer that allows you to browse, add and music albums and artists that demonstrates using a client side AngularJs application talking to a ASP.NET 5 API backend using Entity Framework and a simple layer to handle data access.
Current Supported Version: Beta6 (use tags for others)
The sample uses SQL Server sample data which you can import from a SQL script.
To use it:
- Open the Sql Data Tools or Sql Server Management Studio
- Create a database named AlbumViewer (or whatever)
- Select the database
- Run the AlbumViewer.sql script from the AlbumViewerAspNet5\App_Data folder
The script creates the tables and sample data in order for the application to run.
You can run the application in a number of different ways. The easiest is probably using Visual Studio and simply opening the project and View in Web Browser or Run the application. Alternately you can run the sample from the command line.
From Visual Studio
- Open Visual Studio
- Open the AlbumViewerAspNet5 Solution
- Run the AlbumViewerAspNet5 Project
- Or: Select Index.html in /wwwroot/ and View in Web Browser
