Can't access object attributes using X.PagedList

Can't access object attributes using X.PagedList

I have a search field that returns a list of movies. It works fine if I reference the model as @MovieSearch in the View. But I want to use pagination so it won't break with thousands of results if someone types "a". I'm trying to use X.PagedList, but when I use IPagedList<MovieSearch> as model I can't access the MovieSearchResults[] results property inside MovieSearch in the View, and that contains most of the data I want to retrieve from the search. Basically I can't access anything inside "results" below. public class MovieSearch { public int? page { get; set; } public MovieSearchResult[]? results { get; set; } public int? total_pages { get; set; } public int total_results { get; set; } } public class MovieSearchResult { public string? backdrop_path { get; set; } public string? first_air_date { get; set; } public int[]? genre_ids { get; set; } public int? id { get; set; } public string? title { get; set; } public string[]? origin_country { get; set; } public string? original_language { get; set; } public string? original_title { get; set; } public string? overview { get; set; } public float? popularity { get; set; } public string? poster_path { get; set; } public float? vote_average { get; set; } public int? vote_count { get; set; } } The search results come as objects from a SearchMovies method, I'm not accessing any local DB. This model comes from the API. Any ideas?

Sounds to me like your not using the IPagedList correctly. It should probably be IPagedList<MovieSearchResult> as the page list itself will already contain the pagination inormation, so having your own class that has paging info doesn't make sense.

I think you are right. But now I'm getting this error InvalidOperationException: The model item passed into the ViewDataDictionary is of type 'System.Threading.Tasks.Task1[X.PagedList.IPagedList1[Cinemanage.Models.TMDB.MovieSearchResult]]', but this ViewDataDictionary instance requires a model item of type 'X.PagedList.IPagedList`1[Cinemanage.Models.TMDB.MovieSearchResult]'. This is how I'm returning it from the Action: if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(searchTerm)) { movies = await _tmdbMovieService.SearchMoviesAsync(searchTerm); } var movieResults = movies.results.ToPagedListAsync(pageNumber, pageSize); return View(movieResults); I think it doesn't like the "movieResults = movies.results" But otherwise I can't use the ToPagedListAsync Oh Just needed the await Hehe, all good now. Damn I need some time away. Been grinding Thanks
