DbContext Class
Namespace: Nucleus.Data.EntityFramework
Assembly: Nucleus.Data.EntityFramework.dll
Entity-framework dbcontext implementation.
Remarks
This class includes automatic configuration of the data provider, automatic handling of Models.ModelBase audit properties, and a special SaveChanges overload which allows the caller to limit the scope of saved changes. Modules should inherit this class instead of inheriting Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.DbContext.
Constructor
DbContext (DbContextConfigurator, IHttpContextAccessor, ILoggerFactory) Constructor
DbContext (DbContextConfigurator dbContextConfigurator, IHttpContextAccessor httpContextAccessor, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)
Constructor.
Parameters
| Name | Type |
|---|---|
| dbContextConfigurator | Nucleus.Data.EntityFramework.DbContextConfigurator |

| loggerFactory | Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILoggerFactory |
Properties
ConfigureNucleusEntities Property
Get or set whether Nucleus entities should be configured in OnModelCreating.
Remarks
The default value is true. Data providers for business applications which reside in a different database to the Nucleus data objects can set this value to false in their constructor in order to prevent Nucleus entities from being added to the entity framework model for this context.
DbContextConfigurator Property
HttpContextAccessor Property
Http context accessor.
Remarks
This is used to determine the current user Id for populating audit columns.
LoggerFactory Property
Logger factory used to provide logger instance for entity-framework logs.
