Handle multiple binding errors from ModelBindingException in NancyFX when binding to JSON in Request.Body

I have a post route that accepts some JSON payload in the request body.
Post["/myroute/}"] = _ =>
{
try
{
var model = this.Bind<MyModel>();
}
catch (ModelBindingException e)
{
//PropertyBindException list is empty here,
//so only the first exception can be handled...
}
}
If there are multiple invalid data types (i.e. if there are several int properties defined in MyModel, and a user posts strings for those properties), I would like pass back a nice list of these errors, similar to how would use ModelState dictionary in a vanilla ASP.NET MVC application.
How can I accomplish this type of exception handling when attempting to bind the JSON payload in the request body to my Model in NancyFX?
Update:
Looking through the DefaultBinder in the Nancy source here:
https://github.com/sloncho/Nancy/blob/master/src/Nancy/ModelBinding/DefaultBinder.cs
The problem I see is that in this block:
try
{
var bodyDeserializedModel = this.DeserializeRequestBody(bindingContext);
if (bodyDeserializedModel != null)
{
UpdateModelWithDeserializedModel(bodyDeserializedModel, bindingContext);
}
}
catch (Exception exception)
{
if (!bindingContext.Configuration.IgnoreErrors)
{
throw new ModelBindingException(modelType, innerException: exception);
}
}
The Deserialize call seems to be "all or nothing" and it is handled by a plain Exception, not a ModelBindException, so I cannot see any PropertyBindExceptions here either.
Should I be needing to implement something custom for this...?

Add your own custom body serializer that uses newtonsoft to ignore errors:
public class CustomBodyDeserializer : IBodyDeserializer
{
private readonly MethodInfo deserializeMethod = typeof(JavaScriptSerializer).GetMethod("Deserialize", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Public);
private readonly JsonConfiguration jsonConfiguration;
private readonly GlobalizationConfiguration globalizationConfiguration;
/// <summary>
/// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="JsonBodyDeserializer"/>,
/// with the provided <paramref name="environment"/>.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="environment">An <see cref="INancyEnvironment"/> instance.</param>
public CustomBodyDeserializer(INancyEnvironment environment)
{
this.jsonConfiguration = environment.GetValue<JsonConfiguration>();
this.globalizationConfiguration = environment.GetValue<GlobalizationConfiguration>();
}
/// <summary>

/// </summary>
/// <param name="mediaRange">Content type to deserialize</param>
/// <param name="context">Current <see cref="BindingContext"/>.</param>

public bool CanDeserialize(MediaRange mediaRange, BindingContext context)
{
return Json.IsJsonContentType(mediaRange);
}
/// <summary>
/// Deserialize the request body to a model
/// </summary>
/// <param name="mediaRange">Content type to deserialize</param>
/// <param name="bodyStream">Request body stream</param>

/// <returns>Model instance</returns>
public object Deserialize(MediaRange mediaRange, Stream bodyStream, BindingContext context)
{
//var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer(this.jsonConfiguration, this.globalizationConfiguration);
//serializer.RegisterConverters(this.jsonConfiguration.Converters, this.jsonConfiguration.PrimitiveConverters);
if (bodyStream.CanSeek)
{
bodyStream.Position = 0;
}
string bodyText;
using (var bodyReader = new StreamReader(bodyStream))
{
bodyText = bodyReader.ReadToEnd();
}
// var genericDeserializeMethod = this.deserializeMethod.MakeGenericMethod(context.DestinationType);
// var deserializedObject = genericDeserializeMethod.Invoke(serializer, new object[] { bodyText });
object deserializedObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(bodyText, context.DestinationType, new JsonSerializerSettings
{
Error = HandleDeserializationError
});
return deserializedObject;
}
public void HandleDeserializationError(object sender, Newtonsoft.Json.Serialization.ErrorEventArgs errorArgs)
{
string currentError = errorArgs.ErrorContext.Error.Message;
errorArgs.ErrorContext.Handled = true;

Why can I still write to session when SessionStateBehavior.ReadOnly is set on a controller and should I care?

I have a number of controllers with SessionStateBehavior.ReadOnly set on them to enable parallel processing of multiple ajax requests.
But I have noticed that this doesn't stop me from writing to session (unlike SessionStateBehavior.Disabled which throws an exception).
My application uses Microsoft Charting and the chart and image map are generated in response to an ajax request with the chart being stored in session until the image markup is rendered by the browser at which point the image src triggers the browser to request the chart image which is retrieved from session. So there are no issues here with attempting to read from session before its been written.
Everything works fine, I have multiple ajax requests being processed in parallel and my charts are being returned correctly so does it matter that I have declared SessionStateBehavior.ReadOnly when I am writing to session?

I am trying to figure out where i can pass the parameter like my account username, password, developer token and access token to this function? Does anybody know how i can pass those info to this code? Thanks.

It seems to me, wildly guessing, the account, username and password are present in some secondary resource files not passed in as arguments, or typed into the program as input, but loaded automatically from some 'special' location by the Google API.
Do you, perhaps, have a PGP type keys downloaded from the AdWords program?

I know this getting old but you can pass parameter in your app.config/web.config
<add key="ClientCustomerId" value="insert your client customer id"/>
<add key="AuthorizationMethod" value="OAuth2"/>
<add key="OAuth2ClientId" value="insert oauth2 client id"/>
<add key="OAuth2ClientSecret" value="insert oauth client scret"/>
<add key="OAuth2RefreshToken" value="insert oauth2 refresh token"/>
all oauth2 value you can get from google API Manager

C# & ASP.NET - Anyone create a library to talk to EdgeCast CDN via FTP?

For one of my projects we utilize a Content Delivery Network (EdgeCast) and I was wondering if anyone knew of an existing (open source) library for C# that we could leverage? In a nutshell, I am investigating the ability to create directories, upload files, and allow some general maintenance (rename files, delete files) via our admin panel. Any insight would be appreciated.
NOTE: My code to do this. I don't know if they have an updated API at this point so please check. This code is circa 2009 (as-is, no warranties, use at your own risk, etc).
