I am relatively new to Umbraco, but really I feel like a little child in a candy store. I have been studying Umbraco 4 for now, until more documentation about Umbraco 5 emerges.
I have been able to do quite a lot using the API and Razor, however I've come across this issue and have no clean way to solve this.
I have a document type which represents a stock market security. Some of its data is static and may be inputed to the DB. However some othe data is dynamic and may change on a daily basis. I therefore need to use external webservice to get it.
I want my DynamicModel object to contain this dynamic model without saving it to the db. I am trying to find a way of extending the Model prior to the CSHTML loading. I know I can call the webservice from within the CSHtml, but I would rather to separate the Data Model from the View representing it.
I hope I am clear enough, any help would be appreciated.
