Use Shared C# Code
Use a shared razor file to hold multiple functions / helpers, and call them one-by-one as needed.

Razor doesn't know about types inside code files, so you need some tricks to work with objects which are passed around.

⬇️ Result | Source ➡️

Working with anonymous objects

The only way to get values from an anonymous object created elsewhere is using AsTyped(... as object). Everything else will 🚫.

Anon: { Name = John, Age = 30 }
Anon Type: <>f__AnonymousType0`2[System.String,System.Int32]
aTyped.Name ✅: John
Anon.Name 🚫: ⚠️ Exception: 'object' does not contain a definition for 'Name'
anonDyn.Name 🚫: ⚠️ Exception: 'object' does not contain a definition for 'Name'
aTypedDyn.Name 🚫: ⚠️ Exception: 'ToSic.Sxc.Data.Internal.Typed.WrapObjectTyped' does not contain a definition for 'Get'

Working with `ITyped` objects

If the returned object is based on ITyped, things are a bit easier. But you must still ensure that Razor knows the type.

Name ✅: John
Name (string) ✅: John

Working with real objects

If the returned object is based on a class, things are a bit easier.

Person: ReturnObjects+Person
Person Type: ReturnObjects+Person
Person.Name ✅: John
pTyped.Get("Name") ✅: John
pTyped.String("Name") ✅: John
pTypedDyn.Get("Name") 🚫: ⚠️ Exception: 'ToSic.Sxc.Data.Internal.Typed.WrapObjectTyped' does not contain a definition for 'Get'

Working with dictionaries

If the returned object is based on a dictionary, things are a bit easier. This is because dynamic will be able to work with it, but it's not type safe.

dicDyn: System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.String]
dicDyn Type: System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.String]
dicDyn Count ✅: 2
dicDyn["Name"] ✅: John
dic: System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.String]
dic Type: System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.String,System.String]
dic Count ✅: 2

Loading JavaScripts is standard HTML using <script src="..."< tags. What more challenging is getting the right path to scripts in this app or relative to the current Razor file.

Load a JavaScript relative to the App folder (see message/console):

A core challenge is to activate JavaScripts only when needed - and when all dependencies are loaded. This is what turnOn does. It checks if all specified JS objects exist, and then triggers the JS code.

The following text will be replaced once the JS is triggered:

This example passes data to the JS, so it can be parameterized:

We can also pass in more sophisticated data:

Work with the new UniqueKey with JavaScript - new v16.04 🌟

The UniqueKey is a new feature in 2sxc 16.04 which allows you to create unique IDs for HTML elements. The value of UniqueKey is the same in all Razor and C# files for the same Content-Block.

This separate Razor will create a div for the resulting message, based on the same UniqueKey which is PJUzHqK3

// Make sure the object exists, which can contain various scripts for the Quick Reference

window.quickReference = window.quickReference || {};

// Bind a click action to the button with the unique id
window.quickReference.demoUniqueQuey = function (ids) {
  document.getElementById(ids.buttonId)
    .addEventListener("click", function () {
      const msg = 'The button was pressed. ' +
      'This was only possible thanks to the unique id using UniqueKey. ' + 
      'The ID this time was: ' + ids.buttonId + '.';

      // alert(msg);

      document.getElementById(ids.messageId).innerHTML = msg;
  });
}

Sometimes you need a UniqueKey which also depends on other objects. For example, you may need to have a UniqueKey which also uses another value - or many. This is done using @Kit.Key.UniqueKeyWith(...).

If the UniqueKey is based on known object types such as Entities, this works very well. For example, you may need to loop through a list of items, and each item needs a unique key.
