Getting started with NitroNet for Sitecore

Please see the getting started guide of NitroNet to learn about the basic MVC features of NitroNet.

Create a Layout in Sitecore

Create a layout item below /sitecore/layout/Layouts and set the Path field relative to the path you configured in the setting NitroNet.BasePath. Please make sure that you set the file name without the file extension.

❗ Important: The path must not have a leading slash:
Layout path

Example

Assumption:

  • The layout file path is /Nitro/Sample/frontend/views/layout.html
  • NitroNet.BasePath setting is Nitro/Sample

Conclusion: The resulting Path field value of the layout item is frontend/views/layout

Create a Controller rendering in Sitecore

You only need to create Controller renderings for static components or renderings you want to place on a placeholder. But when creating a Sitecore Controller rendering for a Nitro component you also have the big advantage that you can configure the Sitecore caching for this component. For more information on this matter please follow the Samples page.

Create a Controller rendering item below /sitecore/layout/Renderings and set the item name accoording to the components directory name (hyphens and case sensitivity can be ignored). Also set the Controller field to the controller you have created as shown in the example above.
