Requirements

Features

Quick Start

  1. Install nuget package

    Install-Package KirkChen.EFRepository

  2. Create data class with interface IEntity

    public class MyData : IEntity<int>
{        
    [Key]
    public int Id { get; set; }

    public string Content { get; set; }
}

  3. Create dbContext

    public class MyDbContext: DbContext
{
    public DbSet<MyData> MyDatas { get; set; }
}

  4. Create repository for data class

    public class MyDataRepository : GenericRepository<int, MyData>, IRepository<int, MyData>
{
    public MyDataRepository(MyDbContext context)
        : base(context)
    {
        // Enable soft delete
        this.RegisterPostLoadHook(new SoftDeletePostLoadHook<MyData>());
        this.RegisterPostActionHook(new SoftDeletePostActionHook<MyData>());
    }
}

  5. Use reository

    var dbContext = new MyDbContext();
var repository = new MyDataRepository(dbContext);
var myData = repository.Get(1);

Unit of work

Using unit of work to handle transaction

using(var dbContext = new MyDbContext())
using(var unitOfWork = new UnitOfWork(dbContext))
{
    var repository = new MyDataRepository(dbContext);
    repository.Add(data);

    var anotherRepository = new OtherDataRepository(dbContext);
    repository.Add(anotherdata);

    unitOfWork.SaveChanges();
}
