vbSharp is a collection of ASP.NET shortcuts

VBSharp

VBSharp is a collection of extensions and classes to make ASP.NET development faster. This collection is seriously undocumented because I don't have the time to wite it all down and I am always updating it. I use this codebase every single day and you may find it useful as well. It works with VB.NET and C#.

Example: .forEach extension to Data.DataTable

    Dim ret As New StringBuilder
    With ret
        read.sql("select title from manufacturer") _
            .forEach(Sub(r As Data.DataRow, i As Integer)   
                         .Append(__(r("title")) & html.br())
                     End Sub,
                     Sub() rW(ret.ToString),
                     Sub() .Append("There was no data!"))
    End With

Output with records:

CompanyA<br />
CompanyC<br />
CompanyB<br />

Output with no records:

There was no data!

Example: .template extension to Data.DataTable

dim ret as string = _
	read.sql("select title from manufacturer") _
		.template("${title}<br />"))
rw(ret)

Output with records:

CompanyA<br />
CompanyC<br />
CompanyB<br />

Example: .template extension with Zen coding

dim ret as string = _
    read.sql("select title from manufacturer") _
        .template(New zen("tr>td${title}").output,"<table>","</table>"))
rw(ret)

Output with records:

<table>
<tr><td>CompanyA</td></tr>
<tr><td>CompanyB</td></tr>
<tr><td>CompanyC</td></tr>
</table>

Example: CSV as Data.Datatable

Dim recs As Data.DataTable =
  read.csv(PathOf("app_data/randomdata.csv"),True)

Example: Directory as Data.Datatable

Dim recs As Data.DataTable =
  read.dir(PathOf("examples/forEach/"))

Example: Convert Data.Datatable to various formats

(DataTable).toJSON()
(DataTable).toJS("id-for-js-array")
(DataTable).toCSV()
(DataTable).toTable()
