MVC Shared Layout Parameter to Logoff












1















I use a shared layout and I am trying to pass the current location to the logoff method, but I'm not sure how to do it. I've tried: Request.Url.OriginalString, Request.Url.Scheme and in the logoff method the parameter type I put the parameter type as string but it isn't working. Anyone have any idea?



Log Off Button on my layout page



<a onclick="location.href = '@Url.Action("Logoff", "Account", "Request.Url.Scheme")'"><span class="logOffSpan">Sign Out</span

public ActionResult LogOff(string url)
{
var local = Convert.ToBoolean(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["local"]);
if (local)
{
FormsAuthentication.SignOut();
}
else
{
CasAuthentication.SingleSignOut();
}

Session.Clear();
return to Redirect("Some Method","Some Controller");//I want the user to just return to whatever page they were just on when they clicked log off
}

You can use Request.Url.AbsoluteUri to get the absolute URL of the current page.



Then you can use this overload of @Url.Action method which takes a RouteValueDictionary object as third parameter to build the route params / querystrings.



public virtual string Action (string actionName, 
string controllerName,
RouteValueDictionary routeValues);


So your view code will be



<a href="@Url.Action("Logoff", "Account", new { url = Request.Url.AbsoluteUri })">
<span class="logOffSpan">Sign Out</span>
</a>


This will basically generate the anhcor tag with the href attribute value set to /Account/Logogg?url={yourCurrentPageUrl}, where {yourCurrentPageUrl} will be replaced with your current page URL.



Now in your action method you can use the Redirect method with this aboslute URL value which will be available in your url parameter.



public ActionResult LogOff(string url)
{
// Your existing logic

return Redirect(url);
}
