Tanneryd.BulkOperations.EF6 1.1.0-beta

Tanneryd.BulkOperations.EF6

A nuget package that extends the DbContext in EF6 with bulk operations for both inserts and updates.

Getting Started

Read the CodeProject article Bulk operations using Entity Framework if you are interested in some background.

Prerequisites

The extension is built for, and requires, Entity Framework 6 and .NET 4.5 or later.

Installing

Install the nuget package Tanneryd.BulkOperations.EF6. This will make the following methods available on the DbContext.

/// <summary>
/// 
/// The request object properties have the following function:
/// 
/// Entities - The entities are mapped to rows in a table and these table rows will be updated.
/// UpdatedColumnNames - Specifies which columns to update. An empty list will update ALL columns.
/// KeyMemberNames - Specifies which columns to use as row selectors. An empty list will result
///                  in the primary key columns to be used.
/// Transaction - If a transaction object is provided the update will be made within that transaction.
/// InsertIfNew - When set to true, any entities new to the table will be inserted. Otherwise they 
///               will be ignored.
/// 
/// </summary>
/// <param name="ctx"></param>
/// <param name="request"></param>
public static BulkOperationResponse BulkUpdateAll(
    this DbContext ctx,
    BulkUpdateRequest request)


/// <summary>
/// 
/// The request object properties have the following function:
/// 
///  Entities - The entities are mapped to rows in a table and these table rows will 
///             be updated.
///  Transaction - If a transaction object is provided the update will be made within that transaction.
///  Recursive - If true any new entities added to navigation properties will also be inserted. Foreign 
///              key relationships will be honored for both new and existing entities in the entire 
///              entity graph.
/// 
/// </summary>
/// <param name="ctx"></param>
/// <param name="request"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
public static BulkOperationResponse BulkInsertAll<T>(
    this DbContext ctx,
