Migrating an existing ASP.NET MVC project to ASP.NET Core MVC, and there are no ajax tag helpers?
The tag helpers have been replaced with data-ajax-*
** attributes.
To use ajax, you’ll need to reference jquery
and jquery.unobtrusive-ajax
scripts, you can download and install it via npm, libman, etc. Here is a CDN link (https://cdnjs.com/libraries/jquery-ajax-unobtrusive).
Once you install ajax, add a reference in _layout.cshtml
, for example:
<script src="~/lib/jquery-unobtrusive/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js"></script>
or
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery-ajax-unobtrusive/3.2.6/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js"></script>
Here are the @Ajax tag helpers and their html attributes equivalents.
Ajax Option | HTML attribute |
---|---|
Confirm | data-ajax-confirm |
HttpMethod | data-ajax-method |
InsertionMode | data-ajax-mode |
LoadingElementDuration | data-ajax-loading-duration |
LoadingElementId | data-ajax-loading |
OnBegin | data-ajax-begin |
OnComplete | data-ajax-complete |
OnFailure | data-ajax-failure |
OnSuccess | data-ajax-success |
UpdateTargetId | data-ajax-update |
