I have a complex object that I need to pass to the controller when submitting a form. This complex object has an object and a list of objects. This is my Web API controller that receives the complex object via post with ajax:
[HttpPost]
public IHttpActionResult CreatePurchaseInvoice(NewPurchaseInvoice newPurchaseInvoice)
{
try
{
var purchaseInvoice = new PurchaseInvoice
{
Id = newPurchaseInvoice.PurchaseInvoice.Id,
DatePurchaseInvoice = newPurchaseInvoice.PurchaseInvoice.DatePurchaseInvoice
};
// Here i do other stuff with the list of objects
_context.SaveChanges();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
return BadRequest();
}
return Ok();
}
This is my html form:
<form id="purchaseInvoiceForm">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6">
<label>Order:</label>
<select id="numberOrder" class="form-control" required name="numberOrder">
<option value="">Select an order number...</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Date of Purchase Invoice:</label><br />
<input id="datePurchaseInvoice" style="width: 70%" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
//Here i have an html table and every row i push into an array of the complex object
</form>
And this is my jQuery code where i send the complex object via ajax:
$(document).ready(function(){
//this is the declaration of my complex object
var newPurchaseInvoice = {
PurchaseInvoice: {},
PurchaseInvoiceDetails: []
}
$("#purchaseInvoiceForm").submit(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
newPurchaseInvoice.PurchaseInvoice= {
Id: $("#numberOrder").val(),
DatePurchaseInvoice : $("#datePurchaseInvoice").val()
}
$.ajax({
url: "/api/purchaseInvoices",
method: "post",
data: newPurchaseInvoice
});
});
});
The problem I have is that the date of the KendoDateTimePicker is not sending correctly to the controller. I get this date and not the one I select with the kendoDateTimePicker. This is the DatePurchaseInvoice property of my PurchaseInvoice model in spanish:
This is my KendoDateTimePicker for jQuery:
$("#datePurchaseInvoice").kendoDateTimePicker({
value: new Date(),
dateInput: true
});
And this is my NewPurchaseInvoice model:
public class public class NewPurchaseInvoice
{
public PurchaseInvoice PurchaseInvoice{ get; set; }
public List<PurchaseInvoiceDetail> PurchaseInvoiceDetails{ get; set; }
}
This is my PurchaseInvoice model:
public class PurchaseInvoice
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public DateTime DatePurchaseInvoice { get; set; }
}
