Dashboard Application With ASP.NET MVC 5 And jQuery

Introduction

As you know dashboard system has become very important because it helps the managers taking the right decisions. Generally, a dashboard has so many KPIs (Key Performance Indicator) which represent what happens in business. The KPIs or metrics can be number of users, number of orders, top customers, top orders etc...

All of these KPIs give visibility that can allow the top management of any enterprise to make good decisions. In this article, the idea is to build simple dashboard system with KPIs, then represent them in charts (using Google Charts).

Finally, I would like to point out that we will use ASP.NET MVC 5 and jQuery to build our app. I hope you will like it.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed Visual Studio 2015 (.NETFramework 4.5.2) and SQL Server.

In this post, we are going to,

  • Create MVC application.
  • Create database (Using Entity Framework Code First).
  • Create controllers (Customer Order, Product, and Dashboard).

Create your MVC application

Open Visual Studio and select File >> New Project.

The "New Project" window will pop up. Select ASP.NET Web Application (.NET Framework), name your project, and click OK.

ASP.NET

Next, new dialog will pop up for selecting the template. We are going choose MVC template and click Ok.

ASP.NET

Once our project is created, we will create database using entity framework (Code first approach).

SQL Database part

As you know, entity framework has different approach to map database such as database first, model first, and code first. In this article, I’d like to show you how we can create database using code first approach.

Let’s follow the steps below to create our database. Before of all, we are going create Data Access folder.

To do that. From solution explorer >> right click on project name >> Add >> New Folder.

After that, we are adding two new folders, entities and configurations respectively.

Here entities folder contains the definition of all the implied entities in our application whereas configurations folder is used to define characteristics of different properties of each entity.

Entities Folder

Now, we are adding the following entities

IEntity.cs

  1. using System;  
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  3. using System.Linq;  
  4. using System.Text;  
  5. using System.Threading.Tasks;  
  6.   
  7. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites  
  8. {  
  9.    public interface IEntity  
  10.     {  
  11.         int ID { get; set; }  
  12.     }  
  13. }  

Customer.cs

  1. using System;  
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  3. using System.Linq;  
  4. using System.Web;  
  5.   
  6. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites  
  7. {  
  8.     public class Customer : IEntity  
  9.     {  
  10.         public Customer()  
  11.         {  
  12.             Orders = new List<Order>();  
  13.         }  
  14.   
  15.         public int ID { get; set; }

  20.         public string CustomerImage { get; set; }  
  21.   
  22.         public virtual ICollection<Order> Orders { get; set; }  
  23.     }  
  24. }  

Order.cs

  1. using System;  
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  3. using System.Linq;  
  4. using System.Web;  
  5.   
  6. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites  
  7. {  
  8.     public class Order: IEntity  
  9.     {  
  10.         public Order()  
  11.         {  
  12.             OrderDetail = new List<OrderDetails>();  
  13.         }  
  14.         public int ID { get; set; }  
  15.         public DateTime OrderDate { get; set; }  
  16.   
  17.         public virtual Customer Customer { get; set; }  
  18.         public virtual ICollection<OrderDetails> OrderDetail { get; set; }  
  19.     }  
  20. }  

OrderDetails.cs

  1. using System;  
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  3. using System.Linq;  
  4. using System.Web;  
  5.   
  6. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites  
  7. {  
  8.     public class OrderDetails : IEntity  
  9.     {  
  10.         public int ID { get; set; }  
  11.         public int Quatity { get; set; }  
  12.         public virtual Order Order { get; set; }

  7. {  
  8.     public class Product : IEntity  
  9.     {  
  10.         public Product()  
  11.         {  
  12.             OrderDetails = new List<OrderDetails>();  
  13.         }  
  14.         public int ID { get; set; }  
  15.         public string ProductName { get; set; }  
  16.         public decimal UnitPrice { get; set; }  
  17.         public int UnitsInStock { get; set; }  
  18.         public string ProductImage { get; set; }  
  19.         public string ProductType { get; set; }  
  20.         public virtual ICollection<OrderDetails> OrderDetails { get; set; }  
  21.           
  22.     }  
  23. }  

Now, it’s time to add configurations of all entities which will be used in our application.

EntityConfiguration.cs

  1. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites;  
  2. using System;  
  3. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  4. using System.Data.Entity.ModelConfiguration;  
  5. using System.Linq;  
  6. using System.Web;  
  7.   
  8. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Configurations  
  9. {  
  10.     public class EntityConfiguration<T> : EntityTypeConfiguration<T> where T: class, IEntity  
  11.     {  
  12.         public EntityConfiguration()  
  13.         {  
  14.             HasKey(e=>e.ID);  
  15.         }  
  16.     }  
  17. }  

CustomerConfiguration.cs

  1. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites;  
  2. using System;  
  3. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  4. using System.Linq;  
  5. using System.Web;  
  6.   
  7. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Configurations  
  8. {  
  9.     public class CustomerConfiguration : EntityConfiguration<Customer>  
  10.     {  
  11.         public CustomerConfiguration()  
  12.         {  
  13.             Property(c => c.CustomerName).IsRequired().HasMaxLength(100);  
  14.             Property(c => c.CustomerEmail).IsRequired().HasMaxLength(60);  
  15.             Property(c => c.CustomerPhone).IsRequired().HasMaxLength(100);  
  16.             Property(c => c.CustomerCountry).IsRequired().HasMaxLength(100);  
  17.             Property(c => c.CustomerImage).IsOptional();  
  18.         }  
  19.     }  
  20. }  

OrderConfiguration.cs

  1. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites;  
  2. using System;  
  3. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  4. using System.Linq;  
  5. using System.Web;  
  6.   
  7. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Configurations  
  8. {  
  9.     public class OrderConfiguration : EntityConfiguration<Order>  
  10.     {  
  11.         public OrderConfiguration()  
  12.         {  
  13.             Property(o => o.OrderDate).IsRequired();  
  14.         }  
  15.     }  
  16. }  

OrderDetailsConfiguration.cs

  1. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites;  
  2. using System;  
  3. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  4. using System.Linq;  
  5. using System.Web;  
  6.   
  7. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Configurations  
  8. {  
  9.     public class OrderDetailsConfiguration : EntityConfiguration<OrderDetails>  
  10.     {  
  11.   
  12.         public OrderDetailsConfiguration()  
  13.         {  
  14.             Property(o => o.Quatity).IsRequired();  
  15.         }  
  16.     }  
  17. }  

ProductConfiguration.cs

  1. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites;  
  2. using System;  
  3. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  4. using System.Linq;  
  5. using System.Web;  
  6.   
  7. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Configurations  
  8. {  
  9.     public class ProductConfiguration : EntityConfiguration<Product>  
  10.     {  
  11.         public ProductConfiguration()  
  12.         {  
  13.             Property(p => p.ProductName).IsRequired().HasMaxLength(100);  
  14.             Property(p => p.UnitPrice).IsRequired();  
  15.             Property(p => p.ProductImage).IsRequired().HasMaxLength(100);  
  16.             Property(p => p.UnitsInStock).IsRequired();  
  17.         }  
  18.     }  
  19. }  

As final step. We are adding our dashboard context which will help us to access data from database. Usually context inherits from dbcontext class.

DashboardContext.cs

  1. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Configurations;  
  2. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess.Entitites;  
  3. using System;  
  4. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  5. using System.Data.Entity;  
  6. using System.Data.Entity.ModelConfiguration.Conventions;  
  7. using System.Linq;  
  8. using System.Web;  
  9.   
  10. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess  
  11. {  
  12.     public class DashboardContext : DbContext  
  13.     {  
  14.   
  15.         public DashboardContext():base("DashboardOrder")  
  16.         {  
  17.   
  18.         }  
  19.  
  20.         #region Entities  
  21.         public IDbSet<Customer> CustomerSet { get; set; }  
  22.         public IDbSet<Order> OrderSet { get; set; }  
  23.         public IDbSet<Product> ProductSet { get; set; }  
  24.         public IDbSet<OrderDetails> OrderDetailSet { get; set; }  
  25.  
  26.         #endregion  
  27.   
  28.         protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)  
  29.         {  
  30.             modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingTableNameConvention>();  
  31.   
  32.             modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(new CustomerConfiguration());  
  33.             modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(new OrderConfiguration());  
  34.             modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(new ProductConfiguration());  
  35.             modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(new OrderDetailsConfiguration());  
  36.         }  
  37.   
  38.     }  
  39. }  

Note

Make sure that you have added connection string of your database in Web.config file.

  1. <connectionStrings>  
  2.     <add name="DashboardOrder" connectionString="Data Source=.;Initial Catalog=DashboardOrder;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />  
  3.   </connectionStrings>  

Now, Open Package Manager console and type the following command.

Enable-migrations

After that, I can see that we are ready to create our database. Run the following commands respectively.

add-migration "initial_migration"

update-database –verbose

ASP.NET

As you can see above, all the table have been added successfully.

ASP.NET

Create a controller

Now, we are going to create a controller. Right click on the controllers folder> > Add >> Controller>> selecting MVC 5 Controller - Empty>> click Add. In the next dialog name the controller CustomerOrderController and then click Add.

ASP.NET

ASP.NET

CustomerOrderController.cs

  1. using ApplicationDashboardMVC.DataAccess;  
  2. using System;  
  3. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  4. using System.Linq;  
  5. using System.Web;  
  6. using System.Web.Mvc;  
  7.   
  8. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.Controllers  
  9. {  
  10.     public class CustomerOrderController : Controller  
  11.     {  
  12.         // GET: CustomerOrder  
  13.         public ActionResult Index()  
  14.         {  
  15.             return View();  
  16.         }  
  17.   
  18.         [HttpGet]  
  19.         public ActionResult CustomersList()  
  20.         {  
  21.             return View();  
  22.         }  
  23.   
  24.         [HttpGet]  
  25.         public ActionResult GetCustomers()  
  26.         {  
  27.             using (DashboardContext _context = new DashboardContext())  
  28.             {  
  29.                 var customerList = _context.CustomerSet.Select(c => new  
  30.                 {  
  31.                     c.ID,  
  32.                     c.CustomerName,  
  33.                     c.CustomerEmail,  
  34.                     c.CustomerPhone,  
  35.                     c.CustomerCountry,  
  36.                     c.CustomerImage  
  37.                 }).ToList();  
  38.   
  39.                 return Json(new { data = customerList }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);  
  40.             }  
  41.   
  42.              
  43.         }         
  44.   
  45.     }  
  46. }  

Here, we have added two actions CustomersList decorated with HttpGet attribute and GetCustomers with HttpGet attribute respectively.

CustomersList returns view that contains customer’s datatable whereas GetCustomers retrieves all customers from customer table and returns them in JSON format.

Now, we need to add CustomersList view. To do that, right click on CustomersList action >> Add view >> Add.

CustomersList.cshtml

ASP.NET

Notice that, we must add DataTable libraries in order to display customers list into DataTable grid, thus do not forget add the following libraries.

  1. <script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.13/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>  
  2. <script src="~/Scripts/dataTables.bootstrap.min.js"></script>

Let’s explain the different actions implemented within products controller.

ProductList action has an id as parameter which means customer id that would make an order.

Now, we are going add ProductList view. Right click on ProductList action >> Add View >> Add.

GetProductByCategory accepts category as parameter and it is used to retrieve products from database based on the given category, then display them into GetProductByCategory partial view.

In order to display products by category, we will add new partial view with GetProductByCategory as name.

ShoppingCart action is used when customers select their products, then they will be added in memory at first this is why we have used productList.

public static List<ProductsViewModel> productList = new List<ProductsViewModel>();

Now, to display all the selected products by customer, we will add DisplayShoppingCart action which is able to show all customer’s products.

So, what we need to do, it’s adding new partial view with DisplayShoppingCart as name then copy-past the following code snippet.

DisplayShoppingCart.cshtml

Here, GetDetails action is responsible to get all products or customers based on type parameter which takes as value customer or product type then we will loop the returned result within GetDetails partial view.

GetDetails.cshtml

Copy-past the following code snipped

  1. @model IEnumerable<ApplicationDashboardMVC.Models.ProductOrCustomerViewModel>  
  2. @using ApplicationDashboardMVC.Helpers;  
  3.   
  4. <table class="table table-hover">  
  5.     
  6.     @foreach (var md in Model)  
  7.     {  
  8.         <tr>  
  9.             <td> @Html.ProductImage(@md.Type, @md.Image, "60px", "58px") </td>  
  10.             <td>@md.Name </td>  
  11.             <td>@md.TypeOrCountry </td>  
  12.         </tr>  
  13.     }  
  14.   
  15. </table>  
  16.   
  17. <script type="text/javascript">  
  18.   
  19.     $('img').addClass('rounded img-thumbnail');  
  20.   
  21. </script>  

TopCustomers action is used to get top 5 customers who made more orders, then we will use TopCustomers partial view to display result.

TopCustomers.cshtml

  1. @model IEnumerable<ApplicationDashboardMVC.Models.TopCustomerViewModel>  
  2.   
  3. <div class="list-group">  
  4.   
  5.     @foreach (var customer in Model)  
  6.     {  
  7.         <a href="#" class="list-group-item">  
  8.             <div style="display: inline-block;width: 60px;">  
  9.                 <img class="rounded img-thumbnail" src="@string.Format("/Images/Customers/{0}", customer.CustomerImage)" alt="" style="width:50px; height:60px;" />  
  10.             </div>  
  11.   
  12.             @customer.CustomerName  
  13.             <span class="label label-info"> @string.Format("{0} : {1}", "Count Orders", customer.CountOrder) </span>  
  14.             <span class="label label-success" style="margin-left: 10px;"> @string.Format("{0} : {1}", "From", customer.CustomerCountry) </span>  
  15.   
  16.         </a>  
  17.     }  
  18.   
  19. </div>  

Next, OrdersByCountry action will help us to return as result the number of orders by country in JSON format.

Now, let’s switch to CustomersByCountry which has the role to return the number of customers by country in JSON format.

Finally, we have OrdersbyCustomer action which is used to return the number of orders by customer.

Note

Do not forget to add the following view models

  1. using System;  
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  3. using System.Linq;  
  4. using System.Web;  
  5.   
  6. namespace ApplicationDashboardMVC.Models  
  7. {  
  8.     public class ProductsViewModel  
  9.     {  
  10.         public int ProductID { get; set; }  
  11.         public string ProductName { get; set; }  
  12.         public decimal UnitPriceProduct { get; set; }  
  13.         public int UnitsInStock { get; set; }  
  14.         public string ProductImage { get; set; }  
  15.         public string ProductType { get; set; }  
  16.         public int QteSelected { get; set; }  
  17.   
  18.     }  
  19.   
  20.     public class ProductOrCustomerViewModel  
  21.     {  
  22.         public string Name { get; set; }  
  23.         public string Image { get; set; }  
  24.         public string TypeOrCountry { get; set; }  
  25.         public string Type { get; set; }  
  26.     }  
  27.   
  28.     public class TopCustomerViewModel  
  29.     {  
  30.         public string CustomerName { get; set; }  
  31.         public string CustomerImage { get; set; }  
  32.         public string CustomerCountry { get; set; }  
  33.         public int CountOrder { get; set; }  
  34.     }  
  35. }
