Question

Is it possible to show database content on _layout.cshtml?

I have menu and roleMenu tables, and I want show different a menu based on database records.

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `menu` (
  `Id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `Name` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
  `IconUrl` VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL,
  `ActionUrl` VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL,
  `ParentMenuId` INT NULL DEFAULT NULL,
  `Hide` boolean not null DEFAULT False,
  PRIMARY KEY (`Id`),
  CONSTRAINT `FK_menu_menu` FOREIGN KEY (`ParentMenuId`) REFERENCES `menu` (`Id`) ON DELETE CASCADE);

How can I do this?
