将DateTime传递给控制器

Question

I want to pass DateTime that was selected in datetimepicker in controller.

@{
ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}

<h2>Index</h2>

<script src="~/Scripts/jquery-2.2.0.min.js"></script>
<script src="~/Scripts/moment.min.js"></script>
<script src="~/Scripts/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="~/Scripts/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js"></script>

<link href="~/Content/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="~/Content/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />

<div class="container">
<div class="row">
    <div class='col-sm-6'>
        <div class="form-group">
            <div class='input-group date' id='datetimepicker1'>
                <input type='text' class="form-control" />
                <span class="input-group-addon">
                    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></span>
                </span>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(function () {
            $('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker();
        });
    </script>
</div>
</div>

Controller:

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    //
    // GET: /Home/

    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }

    public ActionResult GetData(DateTime dateTime)
    {
        return View();
    }
}

What is the best way to do this? Use Ajax? How to do it correct?

 $.ajax({
    url: "/Home/GetData",
    type: "POST",
    dataType: "json",
    data: JSON.stringify(????),
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
    success: function (result) { }, 
    failure: function (r, e, s) { alert(e); } 
 });

You can basically listen for the change event on the input field and send the value of that. You don't really need to stringify it as it is simple value you are sending.

$(function(){

  $("#datetimepicker1").change(function(){
     var v = $(this).val();
     if(v.length>0)
     {
          var url = "@Url.Action("GetData","Home")" +"? dateTime="+v;
          $.get(url, function(re) {
              //do something with the re
              console.log(re);
          });
     }

  });


});

I used the Url.Action method to generate the correct relative url to the action method. This code will work if your js code is inside a razor view. If your code is inside an external js file, Use the method explained in this post.
