I am working on a MVC5 project with Areas. My plan is to publish this one codebase into 3 different IIS web servers. I thought about using the subdomain to route users to the designated application.
- Server 1 - App1.myweb.com
- Server 2 - App2.myweb.com
- Server 3 - App3.myweb.com
Areas (App1, App2, App3)
The subdomain class below gives me the URL subdomain but I do not know how to route traffic to the correct Area.
SubdomainRoute.cs
public class SubdomainRoute : RouteBase
{
public override RouteData GetRouteData(HttpContextBase httpContext)
{
if (httpContext.Request == null || httpContext.Request.Url == null)
{
return null;
}
var host = httpContext.Request.Url.Host;
var index = host.IndexOf(".");
string[] segments = httpContext.Request.Url.PathAndQuery.TrimStart('/').Split('/');
if (index < 0)
{
return null;
}
var subdomain = host.Substring(0, index);
string[] blacklist = { "www", "demo", "mail" };
if (blacklist.Contains(subdomain))
{
return null;
}
string controller = (segments.Length > 0) ? segments[0] : "Home";
string action = (segments.Length > 1) ? segments[1] : "Index";
var routeData = new RouteData(this, new MvcRouteHandler());
routeData.Values.Add("controller", controller);
routeData.Values.Add("action", action);
routeData.Values.Add("subdomain", subdomain);
return routeData;
}
public override VirtualPathData GetVirtualPath(RequestContext requestContext, RouteValueDictionary values)
{
return null;
}
}
RouteConfig.cs
public class RouteConfig
{
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.Add(new SubdomainRoute());
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
}
I found this code from http://benjii.me/2015/02/subdomain-routing-in-asp-net-mvc/ but I need to route to Areas.
How do I use the subdomain value from SubdomainRoute.cs to route to my Areas?
Please advise. Thanks.
