ASP.NET MVC Programmatically Get a List of Controllers

by

Using Jon’s suggestion of reflecting through the assembly, here is a snippet you may find useful:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Web.Mvc;

public class MvcHelper
{
    private static List<Type> GetSubClasses<T>()
    {
        return Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().GetTypes().Where(
            type => type.IsSubclassOf(typeof(T))).ToList();
    }

    public List<string> GetControllerNames()
    {
        List<string> controllerNames = new List<string>();
        GetSubClasses<Controller>().ForEach(
            type => controllerNames.Add(type.Name));
        return controllerNames;
    }
}
