Custom validation rules for ASP.NET MVC2 Application

问题

I am attempting to add validation to my application. I have some rules I need to check before allowing the information to be written to the database. I have the basic data validation added to the model, but I also need to make sure that if one field has a certain value, this other field is required. At one time the NerdDinner tutorial at asp.net covered that and I used that in the past for validation, but now I can't find that or any other example. Here is my model:

public class DayRequested
{
    public int RequestId { set; get; }
    [Required, DisplayName("Date of Leave")]
    public string DateOfLeave { get; set; }
    [Required, DisplayName("Time of Leave")]
    public string TimeOfLeave { get; set; }
    [Required, DisplayName("Hours Requested")]
    [Range(0.5, 24, ErrorMessage = "Requested Hours must be within 1 day")]
    public double HoursRequested { get; set; }
    [Required, DisplayName("Request Type")]
    public string RequestType { get; set; }
    [DisplayName("Specify Relationship")]
    public string Relationship { get; set; }
    [DisplayName("Nature of Illness")]
    public string NatureOfIllness { get; set; }
    public bool AddedToTimesheet { get; set; }

    public bool IsValid
    {
        get { return (GetRuleViolations().Count() == 0); }
    }

    public IEnumerable<RuleViolation> GetRuleViolations()
    {
        if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(DateOfLeave))
            yield return new RuleViolation("Date of Leave Required", "DateOfLeave");
        if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(TimeOfLeave))
            yield return new RuleViolation("Date of Leave Required", "TimeOfLeave");
        if ((HoursRequested < 0.5) || (HoursRequested > 24))
            yield return new RuleViolation("Hours must be in a period of one day", "HoursRequested");
        if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(RequestType))
            yield return new RuleViolation("Request Type is required", "RequestType");
        if ((!String.IsNullOrEmpty(NatureOfIllness)) && (NatureOfIllness.Length < 3))
            yield return new RuleViolation("Nature of Illness must be longer 2 characters", "NatureOfIllness");

        // Advanced data validation to make sure rules are followed
        LeaveRequestRepository lrr = new LeaveRequestRepository();
        List<LeaveRequestType> lrt = lrr.GetAllLeaveRequestTypes();
        LeaveRequestType workingType = lrt.Find(b => b.Id == Convert.ToInt32(RequestType));

        if ((String.IsNullOrEmpty(Relationship)) && (workingType.HasRelationship))
            yield return new RuleViolation("Relationship is Required", "Relationship");
        if ((String.IsNullOrEmpty(NatureOfIllness)) && (workingType.HasNatureOfIllness))
            yield return new RuleViolation("Nature of Illness is Required", "NatureOfIllness");

        yield break;
    }
}

My controller:

    //
    // POST: /LeaveRequest/Create
    [Authorize, HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Create(LeaveRequest leaveRequest, List<DayRequested> requestedDays)
    {
        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            foreach (DayRequested requestedDay in requestedDays)
            {
                requestedDay.RequestId = leaveRequest.RequestId;
                requestedDay.NatureOfIllness = (String.IsNullOrEmpty(requestedDay.NatureOfIllness) ? "" : requestedDay.NatureOfIllness);
                requestedDay.Relationship = (String.IsNullOrEmpty(requestedDay.Relationship) ? "" : requestedDay.Relationship);

                if (requestedDay.IsValid)
                    lrRepository.CreateNewLeaveRequestDate(requestedDay);
                else
                    return View(new LeaveRequestViewModel(leaveRequest, requestedDays, lrRepository.GetLeaveRequestTypes()));
            }

            if (leaveRequest.IsValid)
                lrRepository.CreateNewLeaveRequest(leaveRequest);
            else
                return View(new LeaveRequestViewModel(leaveRequest, requestedDays, lrRepository.GetLeaveRequestTypes()));
        }
        else
            return View(new LeaveRequestViewModel(leaveRequest, requestedDays, lrRepository.GetLeaveRequestTypes()));

        return RedirectToAction("Index", lrRepository.GetLeaveRequests(udh.employeeId));
    }

ModelState.IsValid is not set to false though the code in IsValid is run and does return a RuleViolation. So I manually check IsValid it returns false. When I return to the view, the error messages do not appear. What might I be missing? Here are some snippets of the views.

Create.aspx

<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server">
    <h2>Create New Leave Request</h2>
    <div><%= Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "Index") %></div>
    <%= Html.Partial("RequestEditor", Model) %>
    <div><%= Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "Index") %></div>
</asp:Content>

RequestEditor.ascx

<% using (Html.BeginForm()) {%>
    <%= Html.ValidationSummary(true) %>
        <table id="editorRows">
            <% foreach (var item in Model.DaysRequested)
                Html.RenderPartial("RequestedDayRow", new EmployeePayroll.ViewModels.LeaveRequestRow(item, Model.LeaveRequestType)); %>
        </table>
        <p>Type your time to sign your request.</p>
        <p><%= Html.LabelFor(model => model.LeaveRequest.EmployeeSignature) %>: 
            <%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.LeaveRequest.EmployeeSignature, new { Class="required" })%>
            <%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.LeaveRequest.EmployeeSignature)%></p>
        <p><input type="submit" value="Submit Request" /></p>
<% } %>

RequestedDayRow.ascx

<tbody class="editorRow">
    <tr class="row1"></tr>
    <tr class="row2">
        <td colspan="2" class="relationship">
            <%= Html.LabelFor(model => model.DayRequested.Relationship)%>:
            <%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.DayRequested.Relationship) %>
            <%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.DayRequested.Relationship)%>
        </td>
        <td colspan="2" class="natureOfIllness">
            <%= Html.LabelFor(model => model.DayRequested.NatureOfIllness)%>:
            <%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.DayRequested.NatureOfIllness) %>
            <%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.DayRequested.NatureOfIllness)%>
        </td>
        <td></td>
    </tr>
</tbody>

It's quite simple - you just need to apply your validation attribute to the entire model (or a child class). Then the validation attribute gets a reference to the model instead of just one property and you can perform your checks on multiple properties.

You should look at password validation for an example of how to do this.
