Programmatically Adding List viewer Web part(for document Library) on the page

Objective is to add the listviewer web part on the page programmatically. I have a document library for which i want to add the list viewer web part on any page.

Create a console application and paste the code

Code snippet

class Program

{

static void Main(string[] args)

{

SPSite site = new SPSite("Site Url");

SPWeb oSubWeb = site.OpenWeb();

oSubWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;

//Get the object of the page as SPFile on which we need to add the listviewer webpart

SPFile oFile = oSubWeb.GetFile("default.aspx");

//Create the object SPLimitedWebPart Manager

SPLimitedWebPartManager oWebPM = oFile.GetLimitedWebPartManager(PersonalizationScope.Shared);

//Get the object of the list of which we are creatin the list viewer webpart

SPList oSubSiteList = oSubWeb.Lists["Shared Documents"];

//Create the object of ListViewer webpart

ListViewWebPart oListViewWP = new ListViewWebPart();

//Set the properties of the webpart

oListViewWP.ChromeType = PartChromeType.TitleOnly;

oListViewWP.Title = "Shared Documents";

oListViewWP.ListName = oSubSiteList.ID.ToString("B").ToUpper();

//Define the zone in which webparts need to be added

oWebPM.AddWebPart(oListViewWP, "Zone 1", 1);

}

}

Your job is done....

Enjoy!!!
