Auto validation with custom model binder

[cris770]

Hi,

I am trying to use auto request validation in an app that uses a custom model binder.
Looking at the code here , I see the accepted binding sources are Query, Form and Body. Would it be possible to extend that to allow custom binding sources as well?

Thank you!

Hi there! I haven't used custom binding source yet. Could you post some code to help me understand how the binding works? I do see a BindingSource.Custom option in the .NET framework so I guess we can make it work.

I actually have a PR I'm hoping to submit today with this exact feature, as I had a need for it. @mvdgun, is it worth me submitting that or have you started implementation?

@JonAdamsFromNC I am happy you have a PR for this.
I was trying to use a variation of FromHybrid model binding, but apart from the auto validation issues I had a few other problems that made me decide to go back to the default model binding.
But I do think adding support for custom binders will be a nice feature for this great library.
