Convention-based Routes
routes.MapRoute(

       “MoviesByReleaseDate”,

       “movies/released/{year}/{month}”,

       new  {  

                 controller  =  “Movies”,  

                 action  =  “MoviesReleaseByDate”  

       },

       new  {  

                 year  =  @“\d{4},  month  =  @“\d{2}”

       }        isFavorite  =  false;  
}  

Attribute Routes
[Route(“movies/released/{year}/{month}”)  
public  ActionResult  MoviesByReleaseDate(int  year,  int  month)

{

}


To apply a constraint use a colon:

month:regex(\\d{2}):range(1,  12)

Passing Data to Views

Avoid using ViewData and ViewBag because they are fragile. Plus, you have to do extra
casting, which makes your code ugly. Pass a model (or a view model) directly to a view:

return  View(movie);  

Razor Views

@if  (…)  

{

       //  C#  code  or  HTML

}  

@foreach  (…)

{

}  

Render a class (or any attributes) conditionally:

@{

     var  className  =  Model.Customers.Count  >  5  ?  “popular”  :  null;

}

<h2  class=“@className”>…</h2>
