How to map javascript object to mvc model?

Question

I've a js object like bellow:

$scope.docPropIdentityModel = {
        Owner: {OwnerID:"", OwnerName: ""},
        };

I want to send this object to my mvc controller through ajax call. Let say the controller is like:

controller(test_class model)
{
}

and the model is like:

test_class
{
  public string Owner{get;set;};
}

I'm getting null in my controller. How can I map the js object value to my model?

Yur json object includes two different classes. The top level class which holds a second object (Owner). You should have two classes:

public class TestClass {
    public Owner owner;

}
public class Owner {
    public String ownerId;
    public String ownerName;
}

Your JSON object with proper naming conventions:

{
"owner":{"ownerId":"yourID", "ownerName":"yourOwnerName"}
}

Is there any way to map just the OwnerID to my TestClass model?

Your TestClass should be like ´public class TestClass { public String ownerId;}' your JSON object like ´{"ownerId":"yourID"}´. But then you loose information about owner name.

If you are using AngularJS, use $http.get or $http.post.

Controller:

[HttpPost]
public ReturnType Foo(YourModelClass modelClass)
{
}

JavaScript:

$http({
  url: url,
  method: 'POST',                    
  data: $scope.docPropIdentityModel                   
 })
   .success(function (data) {
        alert("OK");
   })
   .error(function (data) {
        alert("error");
   });
