Miscellaneous

This section covers the following data annotations:

• [Color]
• [Placeholder]

Each of these are explained below:

[Color]

The [Color] data annotation can be used to decorate a string property and provide a UI hint to the admin interface to display a color picker field.

The editor will validate a hexadecimal color value e.g. "#EFEFEF" or "#fff".

Example

using Cofoundry.Domain;

public class ExampleDataModel : ICustomEntityDataModel
{
    [Color]
    public string ExampleColor { get; set; }
}

Output:

[Placeholder]

The [Placeholder] data annotation can be used to provide a UI hint to the admin interface to add a placeholder attribute in an html input field.

Example

using Cofoundry.Domain;

public class ExampleDataModel : ICustomEntityDataModel
{
    [Placeholder("Type here")]
    public string ExamplePlaceholder { get; set; }
}

Output:
