Learn MVC Using Angular Wizard

Introduction

In this article, we will learn MVC using Angular Wizard and Datatable from the server side, and work with the stored procedure using Visual Studio 2015.

Why Use Wizard?

Wizard means the process is moved step-by-step. It allows you to logically divide the groups of data. That way, the user can enter valuable data.

In this article, we are going to:

  • Create a database.
  • Create a stored procedure.
  • Create an MVC Application.
  • Do all this using Angular Datatable.

Create a Database

Open SQL Server 2016. Click the “New Query” window and run the query given below.

USE [master]
 
GO
 
CREATE DATABASE [test]
 
CONTAINMENT = NONE
 
ON PRIMARY
 
( NAME = N'test', FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\test.mdf' , SIZE = 8192KB , MAXSIZE = UNLIMITED, FILEGROWTH = 65536KB ),
 
FILEGROUP [DocFiles] CONTAINS FILESTREAM DEFAULT
 
( NAME = N'FileStream', FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\FileStream' , MAXSIZE = UNLIMITED)
 
LOG ON
 
( NAME = N'test_log', FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\test_log.ldf' , SIZE = 8192KB , MAXSIZE = 2048GB , FILEGROWTH = 65536KB )
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL = 130
 
GO
 
IF (1 = FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY('IsFullTextInstalled'))
 
begin
 
EXEC [test].[dbo].[sp_fulltext_database] @action = 'enable'
 
end
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET ANSI_NULL_DEFAULT OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET ANSI_NULLS OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET ANSI_WARNINGS OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET ARITHABORT OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET AUTO_CLOSE OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET AUTO_SHRINK OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS ON
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET CURSOR_CLOSE_ON_COMMIT OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET CURSOR_DEFAULT GLOBAL
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET RECURSIVE_TRIGGERS OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET DISABLE_BROKER
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS_ASYNC OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET DATE_CORRELATION_OPTIMIZATION OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET TRUSTWORTHY OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET PARAMETERIZATION SIMPLE
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET HONOR_BROKER_PRIORITY OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET RECOVERY FULL
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET MULTI_USER
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET PAGE_VERIFY CHECKSUM
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET DB_CHAINING OFF
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET FILESTREAM( NON_TRANSACTED_ACCESS = FULL, DIRECTORY_NAME = N'DocFileDirctory' )
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET TARGET_RECOVERY_TIME = 60 SECONDS
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET DELAYED_DURABILITY = DISABLED
 
GO
 
EXEC sys.sp_db_vardecimal_storage_format N'test', N'ON'
 
GO
 
ALTER DATABASE [test] SET QUERY_STORE = OFF
 
GO

Create a Table

I will create a new table that is based on the booking information.

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[WizardMaster](
 
[BookCode] [varchar](10) NULL,
 
[BookName] [varchar](50) NULL,
 
[BookDesc] [varchar](500) NULL,
 
[BookAuthor] [varchar](50) NULL,
 
[Email] [varchar](50) NULL,
 
[Password] [varchar](10) NULL,
 
[Name] [varchar](10) NULL,
 
[PhoneNo] [varchar](10) NULL,
 
[Addess] [varchar](500) NULL
 
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO

After creating the table, add some data, as given below.

Create a Stored Procedure

I have written the stored procedure for my data operations, so run SP as given below. In this procedure, I have used the “Select” and “Insert” operations.

Create an MVC Application

Open Visual Studio 2015.

Go to Menu, click New->New Project ->select Visual C# under templates-> ASP.NET Web Application.

Once you click OK, one more window opens. Select MVC.

HTML Design

Step 1

Here, we are going to get our email input and matching password set up using “ui-validate-watch” and “ui-validate”.

<div ng-show="activeStep==1" class="wizard-step">
 
    <h4> Create Account <small>— Step 1</small> </h4>
 
    <form name="form_step1" class="form-validate">
 
        <p>Email:</p> <input type="email" placeholder="mail@example.com" name="email" ng-model="Email" required="required" class="form-control" />
 
        <p class="mt">Password</p>
 
        <div class="row">
 
            <div class="col-xs-6"> <input id="id-source" type="password" placeholder="Type your password" ng-model="form.match1" class="form-control" /> </div>
 
            <div class="col-xs-6"> <input type="password" placeholder="Retype your password" name="confirm_match" data-parsley-equalto="#id-source" required="" ng-model="form.match2" ui-validate="'$value==form.match1'" ui-validate-watch="'validator.match1'" class="form-control" /> </div>
 
        </div>
 
        <p ng-show="form_step1.confirm_match.$error.validator" class="text-danger">Password do not match!</p>
        <div class="mt"> <button type="submit" ng-disabled="form_step1.$invalid" ng-click="activeStep=2" class="btn btn-primary">Next</button> </div>
    </form>
</div>

Output 1

Step 1 output given below:

Step 2

Once you click the “Next” button, you have completed Step 1. In Step 2, I have used ng-pattern=”/^[0-9]+$/” and required a keyword used for validation in the HTML form element.

<div ng-show="activeStep==2" class="wizard-step">
 
    <h4> Your Social Networks <small>— Step 2</small> </h4>
 
    <form name="form_step2" class="form-validate">
 
        <p class="mt">Name:</p> <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your fullname" ng-model="name" required="" class="form-control" />
 
        <p class="mt">Phone:</p> <input type="text" name="phone" ng-model="phone" placeholder="Only numbers" ng-pattern="/^[0-9]+$/" class="form-control" />
 
        <p class="mt">Address:</p> <textarea name="address" placeholder="Your address" ng-model="address" class="form-control"></textarea>
 
        <div class="mt"> <buttontype ="button" ng-click="activeStep=1" class="btn btn-default">Prev</button> <buttontype ="submit" ng-disabled="form_step2.$invalid" ng-click="activeStep=3" class="btn btn-primary">Next</button> </div>
 
    </form>
 
</div>

Output 2

If you need go back, click the “Prev” button.

Step 3

After clicking the “Next” button in step 2, it will show as Step 3.

<div ng-show="activeStep==3" class="wizard-step">
 
    <h4> Personal details <small>— Step 3</small> </h4>
 
    <form name="form_step3" class="form-validate">
 
        <div class="form-group">
 
            <p class="mt">Book Code:</p> <input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="BookCode" placeholder="Book Code" /> </div>
 
        <div class="form-group">
 
            <p class="mt">Book Name:</p> <input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="BookName" placeholder="Book Name" /> </div>
 
        <div class="form-group">
 
            <p class="mt">Book Desc:</p> <input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="BookDesc" placeholder="Book Desc" /> </div>
 
        <div class="form-group">
 
            <p class="mt">Book Author:</p> <input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="BookAuthor" placeholder="Book Author" /> </div>
 
    </form>
 
    <div ng-show="stepsDone" class="alert alert-success mv-lg">
 
        <p class="text-bold m0">Excellent ! You've completed all steps.</p>
 
    </div>
    <div class="mt"> <buttontype ="button" ng-click="activeStep=2" class="btn btn-default">Prev</button> <buttontype ="button" ng-disabled="form_step3.$invalid" ng-click="Save()" class="btn btn-primary">Finish</button> </div>
</div>

Output 3

If you click the “Finish” button, data should be added into the tables.

Angular Module

angular.module('uiroute',['ui.router', 'datatables']);

Create and design an HTML page with the table. Mention datatable=ng. Now, bind the Server data.

<table datatable="ng" class="table-responsive table-bordered table-striped ">
 
    <thead style="background-color:#428bca;color:white">
 
        <tr>
 
            <td> User Name </td>
 
            <td> Email </td>
 
            <td> Book Name </td>
 
            <td> Book Description </td>
 
            <td> Book Author Name </td>
 
            <td> Phone No </td>
 
            <td> Address </td>
 
        </tr>
 
    </thead>
 
    <tbody>
 
        <tr ng-repeat="model in LoadData">
 
            <td>{{ model.Name }}</td>
 
            <td>{{ model.Email }}</td>
 
            <td>{{ model.BookName }}</td>
 
            <td>{{ model.BookDesc }}</td>
 
            <td>{{ model.BookAuthor }}</td>
 
            <td>{{ model.Phone }}</td>
 
            <td>{{ model.Address }}</td>
 
        </tr>
 
    </tbody>
 
</table>

Code Behind

Create a Model folder in the Solution Explorer and create a new class in the Model folder.

public class BookModel {
 
    public string Email {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string Password {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string Name {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string Phone {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string Address {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string BookCode {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string BookName {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string BookDesc {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string BookAuthor {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
    public string Mode {
 
        get;
 
        set;
 
    }
 
}

 

Write the method given below in the home controller. LoadData displays the data in the Datatable and another table is using data manipulation.

[HttpPost]
 
#region LoadData
 
public JsonResult LoadData(BookModel Param) {
 
    List < BookModel > BookList = new List < BookModel > ();
 
    using(var con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DbSqlCon"].ConnectionString)) {
 
        var cmd = new SqlCommand("WizardBook_SP", con);
 
        cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
 
        cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@Mode", SqlDbType.VarChar)).Value = Param.Mode;
 
        try {
 
            con.Open();
 
            using(SqlDataReader DbReader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
 
            if (DbReader.HasRows) {
 
                while (DbReader.Read()) {
 
                    BookModel Books = new BookModel();
 
                    Books.Email = DbReader.GetString(DbReader.GetOrdinal("Email"));
 
                    Books.Password = DbReader.GetString(DbReader.GetOrdinal("Password"));

Declare the connection string in Web.config file.

<connectionStrings>
 
<add name="DbSqlCon" connectionString="Data Source=xxxx; Initial Catalog=test; User Id=sa; Password=XXX; connect timeout=0;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient;" />
 
</connectionStrings>

Create an Angular Controller and Service to get the data from the server side.

Angular Controller

controller('WizardController', function($scope, WizardService) {
    $scope.loadTable = function() {
        var Param = {
            Mode: 'GET'
        }
        var ServiceData = WizardService.loadGrid(Param);
 
        ServiceData.then(function(result) {
 
            $scope.LoadData = result.data;
 
        }, function() {});
 
    }
 
    $scope.loadTable();
 
    $scope.Save = function() {
 
        debugger;
 
        var Param = {
 
            Mode: 'ADD',
 
            Email: $scope.Email,
 
            Password: $scope.form.match1,
 
            Name: $scope.name,
 
            Phone: $scope.phone,
 
            Address: $scope.address,
 
            BookCode: $scope.BookCode,
 
            BookName: $scope.BookName,
 
            BookDesc: $scope.BookDesc,
 
            BookAuthor: $scope.BookAuthor
 
        }
 
        var ServiceData = WizardService.EditData(Param);
 
        ServiceData.then(function(result) {
 
            $scope.loadTable();
 
            $scope.stepsDone = true;
 
        }, function() {});
 
    }
 
});

Angular Service

this.loadGrid = function(Param) {
 
    var response = $http({
 
        method: "post",
 
        url: "Home/LoadData",
 
        data: JSON.stringify(Param),
 
        dataType: "json"
 
    });
 
    return response;
 
}
 
this.EditData = function(Param) {
 
    var response = $http({
 
        method: "post",
 
        url: "Home/EditData",
 
        data: JSON.stringify(Param),
 
        dataType: "json"
 
    });
 
    return response;
}

Do not forget to refer to the plugin files and JS file also.

Plug In

<link href="~/Plugin/datatables/media/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="~/Plugin/datatables/media/js/jquery.dataTables.js"></script>
<script src="~/Plugin/angular-datatables/dist/angular-datatables.js"></script>

My Files

<script src="~/App/App.module.js"></script>
<script src="~/App/App.config.js"></script>
<script src="~/App/BookController.js"></script>

Once you are done with the process given above, your datable is ready to load. Thus, run the Application.
