EF Many-to-many dbset.Include in DAL on GenericRepository
- by Bryant
I can't get the QueryObjectGraph to add INCLUDE child tables if my life depended on it...what am I missing? Stuck for third day on something that should be simple :-/
DAL:
public abstract class RepositoryBase<T> where T : class
{
private MyLPL2Context dataContext;
private readonly IDbSet<T> dbset;
protected RepositoryBase(IDatabaseFactory databaseFactory)
{
DatabaseFactory = databaseFactory;
dbset = DataContext.Set<T>();
DataContext.Configuration.LazyLoadingEnabled = true;
}
protected IDatabaseFactory DatabaseFactory
{
get;
private set;
}
protected MyLPL2Context DataContext
{
get { return dataContext ?? (dataContext = DatabaseFactory.Get()); }
}
public IQueryable<T> QueryObjectGraph(Expression<Func<T, bool>> filter,
params string[] children)
{
foreach (var child in children)
{
dbset.Include(child);
}
return dbset.Where(filter);
}
...
DAL repositories
public interface IBreed_TranslatedSqlRepository : ISqlRepository<Breed_Translated>
{
}
public class Breed_TranslatedSqlRepository : RepositoryBase<Breed_Translated>,
IBreed_TranslatedSqlRepository
{
public Breed_TranslatedSqlRepository(IDatabaseFactory databaseFactory)
: base(databaseFactory)
{}
}
BLL Repo:
public IQueryable<Breed_Translated>
QueryObjectGraph(Expression<Func<Breed_Translated, bool>> filter,
params string[] children)
{
return _r.QueryObjectGraph(filter, children);
}
Controller:
var breeds1 = _breedTranslatedRepository
.QueryObjectGraph(b => b.Culture == culture, new string[] { "AnimalType_Breed" })
.ToList();
I can't get to Breed.AnimalType_Breed.AnimalTypeId ..I can drill as far as Breed.AnimalType_Breed then the intelisense expects an expression?
Cues if any, DB Tables: bold is many-to-many
Breed, Breed_Translated, AnimalType_Breed, AnimalType, ...
