Web忽略DbGeography的自定义DbGeography

Question

与此斗争的主要人物。因此，我试图将嵌套的Json数据发送到我的web中。我有一个为我的DbGeography类型定制的子转换器。但是，当我发送请求时，似乎从未调用过我的自定义转换器。我收到错误的说法:无法将对象类型对象强制转换为DbGeography。我使用数据库优先EF作为我的数据模型。注释掉locationAccountCreated属性，其他一切都可以正常工作，数据将成功地保存到数据库中。

如能提供任何帮助，将不胜感激。

请参阅下面的代码

控制器

[Route("Create")]
[HttpPost]
public HttpResponseMessage PostNewAccount([FromBody]IDictionary<string, object> formData) 
{
    if (formData != null)
    {
        var nValueCol = formData;

        var account = new Account()
        { 
            Email = (string)nValueCol["email"],
            Password = (string)nValueCol["password"],
            AgreedToTerms = Convert.ToBoolean(nValueCol["agreesToTerms"]),
            LocationAccountCreated = (DbGeography)nValueCol["userLocation"]//source of error
            //LocationAccountCreated = (DbGeography)(IDictionary<string, IDictionary<string, double>>)nValueCol["userLocation"] 
        };

       //...rest of code unrelated to problem
}

自定义凸点

public class DbGeographyConverter : JsonConverter
{
    private const string LATITUDE_KEY = "latitude";
    private const string LONGITUDE_KEY = "longitude";
    public override bool CanConvert(Type objectType)
    {
        return objectType.Equals(typeof(DbGeography));
    }

    public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, object existingValue, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        if(reader.TokenType == JsonToken.Null) // checks if token is null.
        {
            return default(DbGeography);
        }

        var jObject = JObject.Load(reader);

        if (!jObject.HasValues || (jObject.Property(LATITUDE_KEY)) == null || (jObject.Property(LONGITUDE_KEY)) == null) //checks if Json Object is null, and if longitude or latitude properties are null
        {
            return default(DbGeography);
        }

        string wellKnownText = string.Format("POINT({0} {1})", jObject[LATITUDE_KEY], jObject[LONGITUDE_KEY]);
        return DbGeography.FromText(wellKnownText, DbGeography.DefaultCoordinateSystemId);
    }

    public override void WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, object value, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        var dbGeography = value as DbGeography;

        serializer.Serialize(writer, dbGeography == null || dbGeography.IsEmpty ? null : new { latitude = dbGeography.Latitude.Value, longitude = dbGeography.Longitude.Value });
    }
}


public class QueryLocationMetadata
{
    [JsonConverter(typeof(DbGeographyConverter))]
    public virtual System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeography LocationAccountCreated { get; set; }
}

部分类

[MetadataType(typeof(QueryLocationMetadata))]
public partial class Account
{        
}

Global.asax

protected void Application_Start()
{
    var config = GlobalConfiguration.Configuration;

    //Registering routes from the WebApi.Config file
    GlobalConfiguration.Configure(Config.WebApiConfig.Register);


    //Registering Autofac
    GlobalConfiguration.Configure(Config.AutofacConfig.Initialize);

//Registering Formatter
    config.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings.Converters.Add(new DbGeographyConverter());
}

Answer 1

尝试将其作为第一个提供程序插入：

config.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings.Converters.Insert(0, new DbGeographyConverter());

我在Web 2控制器中使用如下的转换器代码尝试了这种方法：

public void Post([FromBody]System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeography value)

也要处理数字格式问题。WKT部分可能需要如下所示：

string wellKnownText = string.Format("POINT({0} {1})", jObject[LATITUDE_KEY].Value<double>().ToString(System.Globalization.NumberFormatInfo.InvariantInfo), jObject[LONGITUDE_KEY].Value<double>().ToString(System.Globalization.NumberFormatInfo.InvariantInfo));
