MVC 4:从字符串而不是从文件路径创建新的Razor视图

我已经有一段时间没有得到解决方案了，我将在这里分享：

    public static string RenderRazorViewToString(string viewToRender, object model, string controllerName, string loadAction, HttpContextBase httpContext, List<FormViewBags> viewData, string formModelType)
    {
        string view = "";
        //Creating the view data
        ViewDataDictionary ViewData = new ViewDataDictionary();
        //The type of model used for this view
        Type modelType = Helper.GetModelType(formModelType); 
        //Compiling the object model from parameter with the correct type
        ViewData.Model = Cast(model, modelType);
        if ((ViewData.Model != null) && (viewData != null))
        {
            //Adding view bags for the view
            foreach (FormViewBags item in viewData)
            {
                ViewData.Add(item.Key, item.Value);
            }
        }
        //The controller used to all this view
        Type controllerType = Helper.GetModelType(controllerName);
        //Creating the controller
        object controller = Activator.CreateInstance(controllerType);
        //Setting the routing
        RouteData rd = new System.Web.Routing.RouteData();
        rd.Values.Add("controller", controllerName.Split('.').Last().Replace("Controller",""));
        //rd.Values.Add("action", loadAction);
        //Setting the controller with corresponding context
        ((ControllerBase)(controller)).ControllerContext = new ControllerContext(httpContext, rd, (ControllerBase)controller);
        ControllerContext cc = ((ControllerBase)(controller)).ControllerContext;
        using (var sw = new StringWriter())
        {
            //The custom view engine I used to get the view
            var engine = ViewEngines.Engines.Where(s => s.ToString().Equals("MyApp.App_Start.CustomViewEngine")).SingleOrDefault();
            if (engine == null) throw new Exception("no viewengine");
            //Finding the string/text of the view. My website use VPP to get view from database.
            var viewResult = engine.FindPartialView(cc, viewToRender, false);
            var viewContext = new ViewContext(cc, viewResult.View, ViewData, cc.Controller.TempData, sw);
            //This code here renders all the information above into the real compiled string view
            viewResult.View.Render(viewContext, sw);
            viewResult.ViewEngine.ReleaseView(cc, viewResult.View);
            view = sw.GetStringBuilder().ToString();
        }
        //Returns the string of the compiled view
        return view;
    }

这是我的自定义视图引擎：

public class CustomViewEngine : RazorViewEngine
{
    private List<string> _plugins = new List<string>();
    public CustomViewEngine(List<string> pluginFolders)
    {
        _plugins = pluginFolders;
        ViewLocationFormats = GetViewLocations();
        MasterLocationFormats = GetMasterLocations();
        PartialViewLocationFormats = GetViewLocations();
    }
    public string[] GetViewLocations()
    {
        var views = new List<string>();
        views.Add("~/Views/{1}/{0}.cshtml");
        foreach (string p in _plugins)
        {
            views.Add("~/Modules/" + p + "/Views/{1}/{0}.cshtml");
        }
        return views.ToArray();
    }
    public string[] GetMasterLocations()
    {
        var masterPages = new List<string>();
        masterPages.Add("~/Views/Shared/{0}.cshtml");
        foreach (string p in _plugins)
        {
            masterPages.Add("~/Modules/" + p + "/Views/Shared/{0}.cshtml");
        }
        return masterPages.ToArray();
    }
}

您需要使用VPP（虚拟路径提供商）来自动：

/* VIRTUAL PATH HELPER */
public class ViewPathProvider : VirtualPathProvider
{
    //private static FormDBContext dbForm = new FormDBContext();
    public override bool FileExists(string virtualPath)
    {
        return IsExistByVirtualPath(virtualPath) || base.FileExists(virtualPath);
    }
    public override VirtualFile GetFile(string virtualPath)
    {
        if (IsExistByVirtualPath(virtualPath))
        {
            return new ViewFile(virtualPath);
        }
        return base.GetFile(virtualPath);
    }
    public override CacheDependency GetCacheDependency(string virtualPath, System.Collections.IEnumerable virtualPathDependencies, DateTime utcStart)
    {
        if (IsExistByVirtualPath(virtualPath)) {
            //return null; //return null to force no cache
            return ViewCacheDependencyManager.Instance.Get(virtualPath); //uncomment this to enable caching
        }
        return Previous.GetCacheDependency(virtualPath, virtualPathDependencies, utcStart);
    }
    public override String GetFileHash(String virtualPath, IEnumerable virtualPathDependencies) //uncomment this getfilehash to turn on cache
    {
        if (IsExistByVirtualPath(virtualPath))
        {
            return Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
        }
        return Previous.GetFileHash(virtualPath, virtualPathDependencies);
    }
    public bool IsExistByVirtualPath(string virtualPath)
    {
        bool isExist = false;
        try
        {
            string checker = virtualPath.First().Equals('~') ? virtualPath : "~" + virtualPath;
            if (checker.IndexOf("/Views/", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) > 0)
            {
                checker = "~" + Helper.RemoveSubfolderName(checker);
            }
            using (FormDBContext formsDB = new FormDBContext())
            {
                List<Form> f = formsDB.Forms.Where(m => m.VirtualPath.Equals(checker, StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)).ToList();
                if ((f != null) && (f.Count > 0))
                {

                    base.GetFile(virtualPath);
                }
            }
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {

        }
        return isExist;
