Using MVC 5.2, VS 2013.

If I want a custom route on my site like, "www.mydomain.com/Electronics"  that a end visitor can hit where Electronics is a category parameter that could really be any available category value and hits a
class method within a Category controller?   How do I set this up in the Category controller with attribute routing?   And how do I call it with either Url.RouteUrl or Url.HttpRouteUrl?   Is there a way to just use the attribute routing to achieve this and
not have to place an entry into RouteConfig.cs?  

Thanks,

Ian

I actually solved this problem with attribute routing on a Category Controller that I created.   So now you can enter any category description as a parameter off the root of the site, e.g.

http://www.mywebsite.com/Electronics as an example, as long as it has a min length of 1 byte.

public class CategoryController : Controller
{


    public class CategoryController : Controller
    {
        private MyContext db = new MyContext();

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

        [Route("{CategoryDesc:minlength(1)}",Name="Category")]
        public ActionResult DisplayCategory(String CategoryDesc)
        {
                // validate the incoming category description and do your stuff... 

                return View("Index");
        }

    }


  }

I can also refer to it in an anchor tag like this:

<a href="@Url.RouteUrl("Category", new { CategoryDesc = "Electronics" })">
