Lookup

Pick a meal:

Lookup needs a controller or urls to be specified, by default convention the lookup will look for a controller with the same name as it + "LookupController"

action GetItem - used to show the value in the readonly field, it will receive a v parameter which is going to be the key of the selected item
action Search - gets data for the search result in it's popup, it should return a Json(AjaxListResult), so it has same features as the AjaxList (table layout, custom item template)

LookupDemo/IndexContent.cshtml

@(Html.Awe().LookupFor(o => o.Meal)
    .Controller<MealLookupController>()
    .ClearButton(Model.ClearButton)
    .HighlightChange(Model.HighlightChange)
    .Fullscreen(Model.Fullscreen))
