If you are required to pass the same properties to each page, then creating a base viewmodel that is used by all your view models would be wise. Your layout page can then take this base model.
If there is logic required behind this data, then this should be put into a base controller that is used by all your controllers.
There are a lot of things you could do, the important approach being not to repeat the same code in multiple places.
Edit: Update from comments below
Here is a simple example to demonstrate the concept.
Create a base view model that all view models will inherit from.
public abstract class ViewModelBase
{
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public class HomeViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
}
Your layout page can take this as it's model.
@model ViewModelBase
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<header>
Hello @Model.Name
</header>
<div>
@this.RenderBody()
</div>
</body>
</html>
Finally set the data in the action method.
public class HomeController
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
return this.View(new HomeViewModel { Name = "Bacon" });
}
}
