这两个实体是一对多关系(由代码第一个fluent api构建)。

public class Parent
{
    public Parent()
    {
        this.Children = new List<Child>();
    }

    public int Id { get; set; }

    public virtual ICollection<Child> Children { get; set; }
}

public class Child
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    public int ParentId { get; set; }

    public string Data { get; set; }
}

在我的WebApi控制器中,我有创建父实体(工作正常)和更新父实体(有一些问题)的操作。更新操作如下所示:

public void Update(UpdateParentModel model)
{
    //what should be done here?
}

目前我有两个想法:

获取一个被跟踪的父实体,命名为按模型存在的。Id,并将模型中的值逐个分配给实体。这听起来很愚蠢。在模型中。我不知道哪个子是新的,哪个子是修改的(甚至是删除的)。 通过模型创建一个新的父实体,并将其附加到DbContext并保存。但是DbContext如何知道子节点的状态(新增/删除/修改)呢?

实现这个功能的正确方法是什么?

因为我讨厌重复复杂的逻辑,这里有一个Slauma解决方案的通用版本。

这是我的更新方法。请注意,在分离场景中,有时您的代码将读取数据,然后更新它,因此它并不总是分离的。

public async Task UpdateAsync(TempOrder order)
{
    order.CheckNotNull(nameof(order));
    order.OrderId.CheckNotNull(nameof(order.OrderId));

    order.DateModified = _dateService.UtcNow;

    if (_context.Entry(order).State == EntityState.Modified)
    {
        await _context.SaveChangesAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);
    }
    else // Detached.
    {
        var existing = await SelectAsync(order.OrderId!.Value).ConfigureAwait(false);
        if (existing != null)
        {
            order.DateModified = _dateService.UtcNow;
            _context.TrackChildChanges(order.Products, existing.Products, (a, b) => a.OrderProductId == b.OrderProductId);
            await _context.SaveChangesAsync(order, existing).ConfigureAwait(false);
        }
    }
}

这里定义了CheckNotNull。

我一直在摆弄这样的东西……

protected void UpdateChildCollection<Tparent, Tid , Tchild>(Tparent dbItem, Tparent newItem, Func<Tparent, IEnumerable<Tchild>> selector, Func<Tchild, Tid> idSelector) where Tchild : class
    {
        var dbItems = selector(dbItem).ToList();
        var newItems = selector(newItem).ToList();

        if (dbItems == null && newItems == null)
            return;

        var original = dbItems?.ToDictionary(idSelector) ?? new Dictionary<Tid, Tchild>();
        var updated = newItems?.ToDictionary(idSelector) ?? new Dictionary<Tid, Tchild>();

        var toRemove = original.Where(i => !updated.ContainsKey(i.Key)).ToArray();
        var removed = toRemove.Select(i => DbContext.Entry(i.Value).State = EntityState.Deleted).ToArray();

        var toUpdate = original.Where(i => updated.ContainsKey(i.Key)).ToList();
        toUpdate.ForEach(i => DbContext.Entry(i.Value).CurrentValues.SetValues(updated[i.Key]));

        var toAdd = updated.Where(i => !original.ContainsKey(i.Key)).ToList();
        toAdd.ForEach(i => DbContext.Set<Tchild>().Add(i.Value));
    }

你可以这样调用:

UpdateChildCollection(dbCopy, detached, p => p.MyCollectionProp, collectionItem => collectionItem.Id)

不幸的是,如果子类型上有集合属性也需要更新,这种方法就会失败。考虑通过传递一个IRepository(带有基本的CRUD方法)来解决这个问题,这个IRepository将负责自己调用UpdateChildCollection。调用repo,而不是直接调用DbContext.Entry。

不知道这将如何大规模地执行,但不确定还能做什么来解决这个问题。

这个应该可以了……

private void Reconcile<T>(DbContext context,
    IReadOnlyCollection<T> oldItems,
    IReadOnlyCollection<T> newItems,
    Func<T, T, bool> compare)
{
    var itemsToAdd = new List<T>();
    var itemsToRemove = new List<T>();

    foreach (T newItem in newItems)
    {
        T oldItem = oldItems.FirstOrDefault(arg1 => compare(arg1, newItem));

        if (oldItem == null)
        {
            itemsToAdd.Add(newItem);
        }
        else
        {
            context.Entry(oldItem).CurrentValues.SetValues(newItem);
        }
    }

    foreach (T oldItem in oldItems)
    {
        if (!newItems.Any(arg1 => compare(arg1, oldItem)))
        {
            itemsToRemove.Add(oldItem);
        }
    }

    foreach (T item in itemsToAdd)
        context.Add(item);

    foreach (T item in itemsToRemove)
        context.Remove(item);
}

这是我的代码,工作得很好。
