After creating this project we need to make a few one-time changes to enable downloading our pre-release NuGet packages. You can do this using the Package Manager Settings button in the Package Manager Console. If you don\u2019t see the Package Manager Console you can open it from View->Other Windows->Package Manager Console.<\/p>\n You should configure you\u2019re new feed with the following values.<\/p>\n You can see the screenshot below of what the result should look like. Don\u2019t forget to click Update after setting those values.<\/p>\n Now that we have this configured we have access to the pre-release NuGet packages for ASP.NET vNext. To enable command line scaffolding there are a few edits to the project.json that you\u2019ll need to make. The required changes are summarized below.<\/p>\n The final project.json should look like the following.<\/p>\n Now that we have the project configured we will now go to the command line. There is some one-time setup there as well. I\u2019ll get you started with that now.<\/p>\n From an **admin command prompt **execute the following command.<\/p>\n powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command “iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString(‘https:\/\/raw.githubusercontent.com\/aspnet\/Home\/master\/kvminstall.ps1’))”<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n You should exit the command prompt after executing this command. Some environment variables are set that need to be applied before continuing.<\/p>\n Now we need to download the latest kvm package. To do this open a new command prompt<\/strong> (Note: for the next few steps do not use a PowerShell prompt<\/em>) execute the following two commands.<\/p>\n set KRE_NUGET_API_URL=https:\/\/www.myget.org\/F\/aspnetvnext\/api\/v2<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n kvm upgrade<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n This will give us access to the latest version of kvm which is required for scaffolding. This will apply to the current session as well as future sessions for the command\/PowerShell prompt. After executing this you should restart any instances of Visual Studio that are currently open so that Visual Studio can pick up that setting.<\/strong><\/p>\n Now let\u2019s get started with the actual scaffolding. For this sample I\u2019ll show you how you can add a new model to your project and then scaffold some new content based on that. Let\u2019s start by adding the Person class below to the project in the Models folder.<\/p>\n Now that we\u2019ve added the new model, let\u2019s scaffold a controller and view to so that we can interact with it. In the command prompt you should navigate (cd) to the directory for the project (the directory that has the .kproj and project.json file). From there we will execute the following command.<\/p>\n k gen controller -m Person -dc PersonContext<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n Note: you could also use the fully qualified name for the model if you have more than one Person class. For example.<\/p>\n k gen controller -m WebApplication2.Person -dc WebApplication2.PersonContext<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n The parameters passed in indicate that the model (-m<\/strong><\/font>) Person and the data context (-dc<\/strong><\/font>) to be created is PersonContext. (To learn more about the options you can execute k gen controller –help<\/strong><\/font>.)<\/em><\/p>\n The command executed will generate some artifacts into your project. During generation the command line will report added\/modified artifacts. In the screenshots below you can see the command line output. There is a screenshot of the new files in Solution Explorer as well.<\/p>\n This is similar to the content that is generated for projects when using Visual Studio 2013. Now that you\u2019ve generated these artifacts you can navigate to \/Person <\/strong><\/font>to see the Index view and start interacting with this model. At this point you may want to play around with the views\/controllers created in your project to get a sense for the updates. Now that we\u2019ve gone through the basics I will wrap up this post and include some details on what\u2019s next.<\/p>\n In this post I\u2019ve shown how you can get started with ASP.NET vNext command line scaffolding. Our current support is pretty limited, but we are working hard to extend this support and to bring this functionality into Visual Studio. Keep an eye on this blog as well as http:\/\/asp.net\/vNext<\/a> for further updates.
