## What are commands
|
||||
|
||||
Commands provide a way to expose code within an application that performs an action (typically a method) so that it can be invoked by a user interaction with a UI element, such as clicking a `Button`.
|
||||
Commands provide a way to expose code within an application that performs an action (typically a method) so that it can be invoked by a user interaction with a UI element, such as clicking a `Button`.
|
||||
|
||||
For example the `MainModel` includes a public `Save` method:
|
||||
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
public partial record MainModel()
|
||||
{
|
||||
{
|
||||
public void Save() { ... }
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `Save` method will be exposed as an `IAsyncCommand` (an MVUX interface that extends the `ICommand` interface) on the generated bindable proxy for the `MainModel`:
|

The `Save` method will be exposed as an `IAsyncCommand` (an MVUX interface that extends the `ICommand` interface) on the generated ViewModel for the `MainModel`:

public partial class BindableMainModel
|

public partial class MainViewModel
|
||||
{
|
||||
public IAsyncCommand Save { get; }
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `Command` property on a `Button` can be bound to the `Save` command on the `BindableMainModel`. When the `Button` is clicked, the `Save` command will be executed, which will invoke the `Save` method on `MainModel`.

|
||||
```xml
|
||||
<Button Command="{Binding Save}">Save</Button>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
During the execution of the `Save` method, the `Button` will automatically be disabled, making it clear that the method is running.

## Command generation
|
||||
|
||||
By default, MVUX will generate a command in the bindable proxy for each public method in a Model via [**Implicit command generation**](#implicit-command-generation). This behavior can be customized using attributes, or alternatively, can be disabled in favor of [**Explicit command creation**](#explicit-command-creation).

|
||||
|
||||
### Implicit command generation
|
||||
|
||||
#### Basic commands
|
||||
|
||||
By default, a command property will be generated in the bindable proxy for each method on the Model that has no return value or is asynchronous (e.g. returns `ValueTask` or `Task`).
|
||||
By default, a command property will be generated in the ViewModel for each method on the Model that has no return value or is asynchronous (e.g. returns `ValueTask` or `Task`).
|
||||
|
||||
The asynchronous method on the Model may take a single `CancellationToken` parameter, which will be cancelled if the bindable proxy is disposed of whilst commands are running. Although a `CancellationToken` parameter is not mandatory, it's a good practice to add one, as it enables the cancellation of the asynchronous operation.

|
||||
#### Using the CommandParameter
|
||||
|
||||
An additional parameter can be added to the method on the Model, which is then assigned with the value of the `CommandParameter` received from the View. For example, when a `Button` is clicked, the [`Button.CommandParameter`](https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/windows-app-sdk/api/winrt/microsoft.ui.xaml.controls.primitives.buttonbase.commandparameter) value will be passed to the command.

|
||||
The `CommandParameter` value is first passed to the `CanExecute` method on the command to determine if the command can be executed. The command checks both that the `CommandParameter` value can be cast to the correct type, and that there's not already an invocation of the command for that `CommandParameter` value. Assuming `CanExecute` returns true, when the `Button` is clicked the `Execute` method on the command is invoked which routes the call, including the `CommandParameter` value (correctly cast to the appropriate type), to the method on the Model.

In MVUX, we use feeds to pull entities from a service. When a command or an action is executed, we call methods on the service that apply changes to the data, for example, an entity creation, removal, or update.
|
||||
But when the data is changed by the service, we need to ping back the feed and tell it that a change has taken place and that it should update the changed entities, but at the same time, we don't want the service to have a reference to the model or know about it; it's the model that uses the service, not the other way around.
|
||||
|
||||
This is where messaging comes in handy. The service sends a message about this entity change to a central messenger that publishes messages to anyone willing to listen. The model then subscribes to the messages it wants to listen to (filtered by type of entity and entity key) and updates its feeds with the updated entities received from the service.

The Community Toolkit messenger is a common tool that can use to send and receive such messages between objects in the app. The messenger enables objects to remain decoupled from each other without keeping a strong reference between the sender and the receiver. The messages can also be sent over specific channels uniquely identified by a token or within certain areas of the application.
|
||||
|

The core component of the messenger is the `IMessenger` object. Its main methods are `Register` and `Send`. `Register` subscribes to an object to start listening to messages of a certain type, whereas `Send` sends out messages to all listening parties.

|
||||
There are various ways to obtain the `IMessenger` object, but we'll use the most common one, which involves using [Dependency Injection](xref:Uno.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Overview) (DI) to register the `IMessenger` service in the app so it can then be resolved at the construction of other dependent types (e.g., ViewModels).
|
||||
|
||||
In the model, we obtain a reference to the `IMessenger` on the constructor, which is resolved by the DI's service provider.
|
||||
The `Register` method has quite a few overloads, but for the sake of this example, let's use the one that takes the recipient and the message type as parameters. The first parameter is the recipient (`this` in this case), and the second one is a callback that is executed when a message has been received. Although `this` can be called within the callback, it's preferred that the callback doesn't make external references and that the `MyModel` is passed in as an argument.

The `AsyncPaginated` method generates a `ListFeed` that supports pagination.

The parameter of `AsyncPaginated`, is a delegate taking in a [`PageRequest`](#the-pagerequest-type) value and a `CancellationToken` and returning an `IListFeed<T>` where `T` is `Person` in our case. This delegate is invoked when a page request comes in.

This property is a nullable uint, and is null on the first call, as by the time of the first call the UI is initializing the data-binding and there's no data present yet to determine the number of items the UI should place in the space. On the first call, we'll instead use the constant value `DefaultPageSize` which is set to `20`.

What's unique to MVUX is the additional information that `IFeed` exposes. The `IFeed` includes information about the state of the asynchronous operation, such as whether the operation is in progress, whether the operation returned data, or not, and whether there was an error. This information can be used to display the appropriate UI to the user.
|
||||
|
||||
To simplify working with an `IFeed`, we can leverage the MVUX `FeedView` control. The `FeedView` has been designed to work with `IFeed` sources and exposes an simple way for developers to define what the layout should be for the different states of the asynchronous operation.
|

|

The following XAML shows how the `FeedView` can be used to display the current temperature. The `Source` property is bound to the `CurrentWeather` property of the `BindableMainModel`. Inside the `DataTemplate` the `Data` property contains the data returned by the `CurrentWeather` property, which will be a `WeatherInfo` entity.

#### MVVM vs MVUX Data Flow
|
||||
|
||||
The Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern is a popular pattern for building XAML applications. The MVVM pattern is a specialization of the Presentation Model pattern, where the **ViewModel** is responsible for exposing data from the **Model** to the **View**. The **ViewModel** is also responsible for handling user interactions and updating the **Model**. The **ViewModel** is often referred to as the glue between the **Model** and the **View**.

The Model-View-Update-eXtended (MVUX) pattern still leverages data binding to present information to the user and capture input. However, instead of being bound directly to the **Model**, the **View** is data bound to bindable proxies that are generated by MVUX. It's the use of bindable proxies that ensure the single direction of flow of data. When an update occurs, either by the user triggering an action, or entering some data, this generates new instances of the **Model**. The bindable proxies then detect the change and update the **View** accordingly. The bindable proxies also ensure that the **Model** is updated in a thread-safe manner.

To avoid strong dependency on a dispatcher (neither by injection nor by the need to create VM on UI thread), all generated classes are auto resolving the dispatcher when an event handler is registered or when a public method is used, using the internal `LazyDispatcherResolver` and `EventManager`. Those classes are then completing their initialization once the first dispatcher is resolved.
