What options do we have for scaffolding controllers in ASP.NET MVC (v2 and v3 RC)? I know about the code templates folder and T4 but it only allows creating one .tt file and thus, replacing the default controller template with your own but what I would need is different types of templates for various types of controllers.
I’ve heard that Rails has huge support for this. I’m also aware of the MvcScaffold package in MVC 3 (via NuGet) as described and developed by Scott Hanselman which supports ControllerWithContext and ControllerWithRepository but I would like to take this further and since the source code hasn’t been published (at least I’m not aware of it) there isn’t much I can do to customize it.
What do you guys use or do?
There is the Generic Controller (
Controller<T>) technique. Big fan.
