Cofoundry View Helper

Cofoundry has it's own razor view helper that you can use to access Cofoundry features from any view that injects ICofoundryHelper or ICofoundryHelper<TModel>.

When injecting the helper we recommend aliasing it as Cofoundry, for example:

@using Cofoundry.Domain

@model MyTestViewModel
@inject ICofoundryHelper<MyTestViewModel> Cofoundry


<div>
    <img src="@Cofoundry.Routing.ImageAsset(Model.HeaderImageAsset, 400, 300)">
</div>

<div>
     @Cofoundry.Sanitizer.Sanitize("<h1>My Heading</h1><script>alert('uh oh')</script>")
</div>
