    CachedPartial with querystring

    Using Umbraco 7

    I'm trying to use @Umbraco.CahcedPartial to present a image gallery. I would like the cahce to take the querystring of the page into account so that /Mypage?year=2014 return a diffrent cacheresult than /Mypage?year=2013.

    Been trying this in my template

    @Html.CachedPartial("MediaGallery", null, 3600, false, false, new ViewDataDictionary { { "year", Request.QueryString["year"] } })

    But that results in a YSOD saying 

    The model item passed into the dictionary is of type 'System.Web.HttpValueCollection', but this dictionary requires a model item of type 'Umbraco.Web.Models.RenderModel'.

    Any ideas?

    What you are trying will not work. If you look at the documentation of the cached partial :

    http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Mvc/partial-views at the bottom.

    You can create a marco partial and that will call your partial view. Then you creat a macro that renderds your macro partial view. You can define a year parameter on the macro and pass the year querystring to that. Macro's will be cached on parameter values.

    You can find documentation on macro partials here  : http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/reference/templating/macros/Partial-View-Macros/

    This will actually work the way you want, you have to pass an additional parameter generating a unique due passed of the parameters that affect the layout. IE either of these.

    @Html.CachedPartial("MediaGallery", Model, 3600, false, false, new ViewDataDictionary { { "year", Request.QueryString["year"] } }, (model, viewData) => viewData["year"].ToString())

    Or this will take a list of viewData Key's and attach them all.

    @Html.CachedPartial("MediaGallery", Model, 3600, false, false, new ViewDataDictionary { { "year", Request.QueryString["year"] } }, (model, viewData) => String.Join("", new string[] {"year"}.Select(s => viewData[s].ToString()) ) )

    Another cleaner option is to add a extension method in your site code somewhere.

    public static Func<object, ViewDataDictionary, string> CacheBy(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, params string[] keys)
{
    return (model, viewData) => String.Join("", keys.Select(s => viewData[s].ToString()));
}

    Then call it like so:

    @Html.CachedPartial("MediaGallery", Model, 3600, true, false, new ViewDataDictionary { { "year", Request.QueryString["year"] } },CacheBy("year", "anotherParameter") )
