Making a Web ToDo List with ASP.NET MVC - Part 2

In this video we start building controller classes for our web application. We also add logic to ensure users only see the ToDo lists they have created.

These tutorials has been a very helpful to me. Straight forward and very informative. I needed this. Went through 3-4 different resources, in essence waisting my time to figure out how to link my databases and make my asp.net mvc database driven and user specific. I had the database driven part down but making it user specific troubled me. Your videos bridged the gap and will benefit me for years to come! Exciting. Thank you!

Hey Pill, thank you very much for these tutorials :-) Currently studying Advanced Programming in University, and we need to develop web app. Before working on my assignment I am watching your tutorial. Just finished Part 2 :D . Some tips: Add a water mark to your videos, you can do so from the Creators Studio, also, if we would see your face in the top right corner, that might be more engaging and bring more subscribers.

Good luck!!

Additional information: Multiple object sets per type are not supported. The object sets 'ToDos' and 'ToDoes' can both contain instances of type 'ToDoList.Models.ToDo'.

Nice tutorials I love them. Since I am quite new I am a bit confused, it's seems to me that that there is way to much features already created when you start the project. Is it good, is it bad ?

[oleglarionov]

Hi, can you get some advice, when run the project I have such exception

[yoboicliff]

Great Video, there barely Video tutorials on this

[oleglarionov]

Ok, I understood why I have had such exception, when we did migration and added DbSet<ToDo> ToDos { get; set; } at IdentityModel, visual studio automatically created another DBSet connection - public ToDoes { get; set; }, that`s why I`ve got exception. I just commented it, and it`s works.

While trying to repeat code samples from your video, I have error in following code:
public ActionResult Index()
{
string currentUserId = User.Identity.GetUserId();
ApplicationUser currentUser = db.Pages.FirstOrDefault
(x => x.Id == currentUserId); //<-error in this string
return => x.User == currentUser));
}
My system configuration:
MS Visual Studio 2015
Please, help me.

Hello Sean !!
Your videos are pretty good and informative.
A quick question - why did you add the User property in ToDo model as an ApplicationUser type ? We ultimately want to link each ToDo item to a user id, so wont a string do ? Also, this can save us from writing the extra bit of code in controller where we are retrieving the User object from the current user id.
