How can I do ASP.NET MVC view scaffolding in Rider IDE?

Question

Currently trying Rider (JetBrains IDE for .Net). I used to work on Visual Studio Enterprise for c# asp.net MVC projects, and i'd like to know if there's a way (on Rider) to do like the "Add -> view -> with create/delete/update/list" feature on Visual Studio?

Something which would generate CRUD views like that :

@model IEnumerable<Web.Models.Warrior>

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}

<h2>Index</h2>

<p>
    @Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create")
</p>
<table class="table">
    <tr>
        <th>
            @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Name)
        </th>
        <th>
            @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Health)
        </th>
        <th></th>
    </tr>

@foreach (var item in Model) {
    <tr>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Name)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Health)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.ActionLink("Edit", "Edit", new { /* id=item.PrimaryKey */ }) |
            @Html.ActionLink("Details", "Details", new { /* id=item.PrimaryKey */ }) |
            @Html.ActionLink("Delete", "Delete", new { /* id=item.PrimaryKey */ })
        </td>
    </tr>
}

</table>

Answer 2

But you still can...

You can use dotnet aspnet-codegenerator terminal tool. which is used for generating controllers and views with different options.

Install the tool globally.

dotnet tool install --global dotnet-aspnet-codegenerator

dotnet aspnet-codegenerator controller -name MyNewController -m MyModel -dc MyDbContext -outDir Controllers/

This is called Scaffolding and is unfortunately not a feature in Rider. I couldn't tell you if it's a planned feature, but I hope so.
My only suggestion might be to open VS, scaffold, and then use Rider again to continue coding.

Well, thanks for the "scaffolding" word I didn't knew. Your solution may be one solution (not sure if it's the optimal solution but .. meh, why not xD) or i'll wait till JetBrains implements it in Rider... – Garrik

You're welcome! Yeah I hope they implement it too :) – Parotic
