About Me

 


Hi there

I’m Warren, I’m a skilled and passionate designer, analyst and developer interested in product management, user experience design and software development. I believe in thinking outside the box and that the best ideas are usually simple. I’m great with teams and a change-driven environment. I like to get people involved and the best ideas out there.

I’ve designed and developed apps in the startup world, focussed on mental health support and connecting people at events. Following from my natural state in everyday life, connecting and helping people.

My vision for the future is one where people can connect more, talking about things that matter with people who share experiences. It’s hard to really understand someone’s experiences unless you’ve been there yourself.

In my spare time, I love spending time on the beach or in nature.

How I got here

I have over a decade of experience in IT working in areas like job recruitment tech to designing and developing medical software for logistics and reporting.

Where I’m going

I’m going further into brand strategy, defining markets, understanding the customer and translating that into more effective advertising and structured social media.

Passing Additional View Data to a DisplayTemplate

Passing additional ViewData Asp.NET MVC Now as the name suggests, ViewData might get you thinking about just that. Whereas there's a quite simple way to get your extra data across to a Display or Editor Template . This time the simplest answer is the one, though not the obvious one. Pass across your additionalViewData like you normally would @Html.DisplayFor( modelItem => item.ImageId, new { Class = "thumb-sm" } ) Then access if from your template using a simple ViewBag dynamic object. File Path /Views/Shared/DisplayTemplates/TemplateName.cshtml In this case we're passing along an additional class intended to allow us to control the size of the image rendered on the page. Haven't tried this in older versions of MVC, this will work in 4 & 5 Hope this helps someone, thought I'd put it up here as I forgot and spent a few minutes searching my code for the answer.  Thanks for reading.

MVC Value Providers - Cookie Value Providers

Asp.NET MVC -  Value providers What are value providers? A Value provider is a class that ties into the request pipeline and gets values out for you, now this is fine for simple requests like when someone submits a form on your site.  The built in one is quite powerful and covers simple data types all the way to creating models for you. But what if you require a value that's not part of the form data or the query string, for example a header or a cookie. Then you'll need to find or write a custom value provide r to get one of these values in your action. So today we're going to build a Cookie Value provider public class HttpCookieValueProvider : System.Web.Mvc.IValueProvider     {         private ControllerContext _context;         public HttpCookieValueProvider ( ControllerContext context )         {             if ( context == null )    ...

Get Started with AngularJs using a WebApi backend

AngularJs & WebApi Getting started I'd found it quite a ride converting an .NET MVC3 web app over to Angular, especially with Auth,  the social login flow. So once I did I decided to put up a neatly packaged template on Github to get people started incase these things were holding them up as well. Get Started with my template  https://github.com/warrendodsworth/angular-webapi-start It's a working template app and I'd like to say that I welcome contributions, please keep the code lean and readable. This is a pretty old template now since Angular on Typescript came out. It was fun then and is a lot nicer now with Typescript. MVC3 has moved on to dotnet core for API building. PS I'll be adding to this post to explain the pieces of it a bit more, the same should be visible on the readme on Github.
