Error when using partial view :ProductVariant_SKU_Man_Stock

You can also overload the method in the Catalog controller to call stock availibilty.

Its contained in the following non action

[NonAction]protected ProductModel PrepareProductOverviewModel

I am currently working on the same idea.

Hi

Well I created a partial view as suggested by Creative, but I get the same error as when I tried to use the ProductVariant_SKU_Man_Stock view, being a novice I will post my code in case I have made any glaring errors which someone may see right away.


Creatives code was @model  ProductModel.ProductVariantModel  but that throws an error staright away.

So my view is called _ProductStockLevel with the following code

@model  ProductDetailsModel.ProductVariantModel
@using Nop.Web.Models.Catalog ;
       @*Stock availability*@      
       <div class="stock">
          @T("Products.Availability"): @Model.StockAvailablity
       </div>

I also tried

@model  ProductDetailsModel.ProductVariantModel
@using Nop.Web.Models.Catalog ;
       @*Stock availability*@      
        @Html.Raw(Model.StockAvailablity)      


which does not produce an error.

Then in the  _ProductBox.cshtml

@Html.Partial("_ProductStockLevel", Model.ProductVariantModel)

but @Html.Partial("_ProductStockLevel", Model.ProductVariantModel) gives an error of

'Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.ProductOverviewModel' does not contain a definition for 'ProductVariantModel' and no extension method 'ProductVariantModel' accepting a first argument of type 'Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.ProductOverviewModel' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Thanks

Hi

Its in the Controller.

I'm a novice to to ASP.NET MVC C# the view's are the easy part controller's the hardest.

So far I have the following in bold but It will throw multiple error's throughout the whole Catalog Controller that I'm currently working through

[NonAction]protected ProductModel PrepareProductOverviewModel(Product product, ProductModel.ProductVariantModel productVariant , bool preparePriceModel = true, bool preparePictureModel = true, int? productThumbPictureSize = null)
        {
            if (product == null)
                throw new ArgumentNullException("product");

            var model = product.ToModel();
            //ConcordProductBlock
            model.CCCPack = product.CCCPack;
            model.CCCStockCode = product.CCCStockCode;
            model.CCCRetailPrice = product.CCCRetailPrice;
            model.StockAvailablity = productVariant.StockAvailablity;

The error is coz there is no productvariantmodel in ProductOverviewModel, You need to define all the partial classes within  ProductOverviewModel inorder to use there properties, Currently ProductOverviewModel consist of ProductPriceModel , PictureModel , ProductSpecificationModel And there details are fetched through controller  PrepareProductOverviewModels which is used by view to generate the required details . You have to define partial class in the productoverview model and get the value in controller which can be used by View.

I had arrived at that conclusion, but was unsure if I was on the correct path, but thank you for confirming I am going the right direction.

It really is a steep learning curve for me as not only am I a MVC novice I am in the VB camp, so C# code is not as easy to read as VB for me.

Thanks

Just try this, i have not tested it , just a guess :

Add this line to PrepareProductOverviewModels [Nope.WebControllers.CatalogController]

var quantity = productVariant.AllowedQuantities;

after this line
var productVariant = _priceCalculationService.GetProductVariantWithMinimalPrice(productVariants, _workContext.CurrentCustomer, true, int.MaxValue, out minimalPrice); //line248

Now add this line in the ProductOverviewModel
public string quantity { get; set; } it should be included in the partial class
public partial class ProductPriceModel : BaseNopModel

Now call quantity in the _ProductBox.cshtml
like:
@Html.Raw(Model.ProductPrice.quantity)

Hi

Well as you posted the above code I had just worked out that I may be able to get to the Stock Qty by using this line in the productVariant.StockQuantity; at the line in the code u suggested.

However I was still trying to work out how how to get that in to the view, so I followed the code u suggested with a couple of minor changes

priceModel.StockQty = productVariant.StockQuantity; instead of
var quantity = productVariant.AllowedQuantities;

public int StockQty { get; set; } instead of public string quantity { get; set; }

and @Model.ProductPrice.StockQty instead of
@Html.Raw(Model.ProductPrice.quantity)

and it worked :) thank you again for your time and patience, I am begining to learn a little C# and MVC. :)

Thanks
