DxaPropertyMarkup() for List<> in model

Question

I am having partial that renders:

@model List<AccessoryGroupModel>

I tried to create DxaPropertyMarkup() for items like this:

int i = 0;
@foreach (var item in Model)
{
    <div class="u-flow" @Html.DxaPropertyMarkup(() => item)>

or this:

<div class="u-flow" @Html.DxaPropertyMarkup(() => Model, i++)>

But nothing works. Any idea?

Answer 1

The Html.DxaPropertyMarkup extension method is intended for rendering (guess what... :-)) property markup. For that purpose, you should provide a lambda expression which resolves to a property of an Entity Model.

You are trying to provide it a lambda expression which resolves to the Model itself. That doesn't work, indeed.

Maybe you actually wanted to render entity markup? In that case, use Html.DxaEntityMarkup. That one does expect a lambda which resolved to a Model as a whole.
