Setup N2Cms on an Asp.Net MVC
Dusty Candland |
|
The following are my notes on setting up a n2cms site starting with a default MVC project and copying in the needed stuff from the Example_Mvc sample from the n2cms site.
Starting with a new MVC site. Reference the dll’s in the \Example_Mvc\Mvc\wwwroot\Bin folder. I copied them to an externals folder under my solution and referenced them there.
Global.asax
-
Add IEngine parameter to the RegisterRoutes method.
-
Add a new ContentRoute to the RouteCollection.
-
Add an ignore for .ashx routes.
-
Initialize the N2 engine and pass to the RegisterRoutes in the Application_Start()
-
Override Init and attach this to the EventRroker instance.

{
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes, IEngine engine)

<h4>
Initial DB Setup
</h4>
<p>
Copy the Edit directory from Example_Mvc\Mvc\wwwroot to the root of your web project. This is the code that handles setup and content management and shouldn’t need to be modified. Add a new mdf database in the app_data directory or point the connection string to some other DB.
</p>
<p>
Now the site can be compiled and run. This should bring up the /edit/install page to create the db tables and insert the root node value. You may need to stop the development server and restart it to see your ContentPage in the root and start node drop downs. Once this is done you should be able to edit the content of your Start Page!
</p>
<h4>
What’s Next?
</h4>
<p>
A few more details need to be handled, like authentication, some N2 setup on the Site.Master page, and some clean up of unused pages from the MVC project setup.
