an UmbracoHelper property to the PluginController class which will expose any methods needed by devs to retreive media or content.
Have updated UmbracoHelper with loads of new helpful methods and moved the Wrap methods to HtmlHelper extensions because this is purely to
do with rendering html (have written unit tests for it too).
Updated some 'library' methods to proxy calls to UmbracoHelper so we only have to maintain one set of code.
Added a convenience property to UmbracoContext to return the current NiceUrlProvider so you don't have to go through the RoutingContext to get it.
Instead (because we still want areas), we have an attribute called PluginControllerAttribute which allows a dev to assign an area name as a string. A package developer should always ensure that all of their plugin controllers are assigned to the same
area. This also lets us get rid of the GUID id part of the plugin (hopefully we can leave it out, just need to run some tests). Since we have areas, package devs can then put their views into
their own folders and not clutter up the local devs ~/Views folder. Perhaps we use App_Plugins/[PackageName] for the views like we did in v5 but need to ask on the mail list. Otherwise it will be the standard MVC:
~/Areas/[AreaName]/Views which will still also clutter up the local devs view folder if they are using Areas.
I've also added this web.config file to the sln so it should output in the build by default though it will still be created automatically if
its not there.
the suffixed '/'. Fixed a bug with the reserved paths which was caused by code written in 4.9 to the new code written in 4.10 and the combined
effort was not working. Added more logic to cleanup the URL before comparing too.
Cleaned up GlobalSettings to not have any reliance whatsoever on httpcontext (which of course it shouldn't and not sure why it even did before).
Obsoleted a few methods on the legacy GlobalSettings that aren't used anywhere and should be removed in the future.
Cleaned up a bit of the UmbracoModule with the URLs used.
interface IPublishedDataStore.
Simplified the interface structure and removed the GetDocumentProperty method as it is not needed and i think existed
before we updated the codebase to not rely on xml.
