How to get html generated by razor into a string?

Question

I created a workflow using umbraco and what I am trying to do is: create a workflow that get the html created by a razor template (umbraco.forms).

Here is the locations where is the templates of umbraco.forms

Views\Partials\Forms\Emails This template is what I want to send by email when this workflow is called.

public class SendMail : WorkflowType
{  
    //Here I get the path where the razor template is
    [Umbraco.Forms.Core.Attributes.Setting("Path to template",
     Description = "Path to template",
     View = "TextField")]
     public string Template{ get; set; }
   public SendMail()
   {

    this.Id = new Guid("ccbeb0d5-adaa-4729-8b4c-4bb439dc0204");
    this.Name = "Send Mail";
    this.Description = "Send Mail";
    this.Icon = "icon-plugin";
    this.Group = "Services";
   }
    //When workflow get called this method is executed 
    public override WorkflowExecutionStatus Execute(Record record, RecordEventArgs e)
   {

      //here I'm trying to get the template converted to string however isn't work
     //  string template = html.Raw(Template).ToString();
   }

}

I tried string template = html.Raw(Template); but I have no access to the html.Raw("");

I've tried this solutions but seems that record.ParseWithRazorView(filePath); doesn't exists

There is a workflow that do something close but seems I can't re-write or get access to this code

• Email Templates
• Workflow Types
• Creating a custom workflow

Answer 1

I created a View and a umbraco controller

namespace name.Core.Controllers
{
    public class TemplateController : Umbraco.Web.Mvc.SurfaceController
    {
        public ActionResult Template()
        {

            return View();
        }
   }
}

The I pass the URL into "pathtoTemplate"

 public static class TemplateHTML
    {
        public static string GetTemplate(string pathtoTemplate)
        {
            using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
            {
                var encodingbody = client.DownloadData(CaminhoTemplate);
                return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(encodingbody);
            }
        }
    }

var body = TemplateHTML.GetTemplate("http://example.com/umbraco/surface/Template/Template")
