OfX-EFCore 3.1.13

OfX-EFCore

OfX-EFCore is an extension package for OfX that integrates with Entity Framework Core to simplify data fetching by leveraging attribute-based data mapping. This extension streamlines data retrieval using EF Core, reducing boilerplate code and improving maintainability.

Demo Project!

Introduction

OfX-EFCore extends the core OfX library by providing seamless integration with Entity Framework Core. This enables developers to automatically map and retrieve data directly from a database, leveraging the power of Entity Framework Core along with attribute-based data mapping.

For example, suppose you have a UserId property in your model, and you want to fetch the corresponding Name and Email fields from the database. By using OfX-EFCore, you can annotate your model with attributes, and the library will handle data fetching for you.

Installation

To install the OfX-EFCore package, use the following NuGet command:

dotnet add package OfX-EFCore

Or via the NuGet Package Manager:

Install-Package OfX-EFCore

How to Use

1. Register OfX-EfCore

Add OfX-EfCore to your service configuration during application startup:

builder.Services.AddOfXEntityFrameworkCore(cfg =>
{
    cfg.AddAttributesContainNamespaces(typeof(WhereTheAttributeDefined).Assembly);
    cfg.AddHandlersFromNamespaceContaining<SomeHandlerAssemblyMarker>();
})
.AddOfXEFCore(options =>
{
    options.AddDbContexts(typeof(TestDbContext));
    options.AddModelConfigurationsFromNamespaceContaining<SomeModelAssemblyMarker>();
});

Function Descriptions

AddDbContexts

Here, you can use the method AddDbContexts(), which takes DbContext(s) to executing.

AddModelConfigurationsFromNamespaceContaining

You have to tell OfX-EFCore where your models are located by assembly. OfX-EFCore will find all OfXConfigForAttribute to create handler automatically!

That all, Enjoy your moment!
