ToDo

Some people have loss their jobs, or had reduced hours in my case I have been hyper-busy with my main employment.

It seems my work still is keeping me away, from my side projects and adding content to this blog. However, some progress has happened.

So my thoughts for the new year … more time on my side projects with luck.

Say safe and happy new year.

DelphiLibSass API is simply composed of a main TDelphiLibSass class:

TDelphiLibSass.ConvertToCss converts a SCSS string to a CSS

Try
  FDelphiLibSass := TDelphiLibSass.Create('libsass.dll');
  FDelphiLibSass.LoadDll;

  FScssResult := FDelphiLibSass.
      ConvertToCss('$font-stack: Helvetica, sans-serif; body { font: 100% $font-stack; }');

  writeln(FScssResult.CSS);
Finally
  FScssResult.Free;
  FDelphiLibSass.Free; 
end;

TDelphiLibSass.ConvertFileToCss converts a SCSS file to a CSS

Try
  FDelphiLibSass := TDelphiLibSass.Create('libsass.dll');
  FDelphiLibSass.LoadDll;

  FScssResult := FDelphiLibSass.ConvertFileToCss('test.scss');

  writeln(FScssResult.CSS);
Finally
  FScssResult.Free;
  FDelphiLibSass.Free; 
end;

Implementing 301 redirect in ASP.NET Webforms or ASP.NET MVC; Simply use the Application_BeginRequest event in Global.asax. Then retrieve the URL from the Web.Config file or a Repository.

protected void Application_BeginRequest(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string path = "";
switch (Request.Url.Scheme)
{

case "https":
Response.AddHeader("Strict-Transport-Security", "max-age=300");
break;
case "http":
    if (Request.Url.PathAndQuery == "/")
     {

    path = "https://" + WebUtils.WebConfigUtils.GetAppSettingskey("SiteURL") + "/";

    }
else
    {
     path = "https://" + WebUtils.WebConfigUtils.GetAppSettingskey("SiteURL") + "/" + Request.Url.PathAndQuery;

    }
    Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently";
    Response.AddHeader("Location", path);
    break;
   }
}

• When a URL request for an http is made, the switch statement responses by inserting a 301 Moved Permanently and the new location path into the HTTP header .

• Store the SiteURL in the Web.Config or a Repository.

• When a URL request for an https is made,the switch statement responses by in inserting Strict-Transport-Security telling the browser to prevent any communications from being sent for HTTP.

Test this function locally in your development environment use IIS Express SSL option.?

Razor Page

@model MyWebApp.Models.Foo
@{
ViewBag.Title = "Foo";
}

<script type="text/javascript">
var _model = @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Model))
</script>
@Scripts.Render("/scripts/Foo.js")

• The model must be strongly-typed.
• Model encoding must be done at the top of the Razor page to allow the encoded JSON variable to be accessible.
• JQuery must be included.

Example output

<script type="text/javascript">
var _model = {"Firstname":"Adam","Lastname":"Johnston"}
</script>

_model.Firstname
_model.Lastname
