How to get session value asp.net core inside a view

asp.net-mvc, session-variables

Solution

You have to inject the `IHttpContextAccessor` implementation to the views and use it.

@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http
@inject Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.IHttpContextAccessor HttpContextAccessor

Now you can access the `HttpContext` property and then `Session`

<p>
    @HttpContextAccessor.HttpContext.Session.GetInt32("MySessionKey")
</p>

Assuming you have all the necessary setup done to enable session in the `startup` class.

In your `ConfigureServices` method,

services.AddSingleton<IHttpContextAccessor, HttpContextAccessor>();

and `IApplicationBuilder.UseSession` method call in the `Configure` method.

app.UseSession();

Problem

I am trying to get session like this ``` @HttpContext.Session.GetString("some"); ``` But I am getting * An object reference is required for the non-static field ...... * Any one with ideas?
