我刚刚通过以下方法在EF 4.1中实现了这一点:
数据库仍会被删除并重新创建 - 这是必要的,以便模式反映您的模型更改 - 但您的数据仍然完好无损。
下面是具体步骤:首先将数据库读入内存中的POCO对象,然后在POCO对象成功加载到内存后,让EF删除并重新创建数据库。以下是一个示例:
public class NorthwindDbContextInitializer : DropCreateDatabaseAlways<NorthindDbContext> {
DbConnection connection;
Dictionary<Tuple<PropertyInfo,Type>, System.Collections.IEnumerable> map;
public NorthwindDbContextInitializer(DbConnection connection, Dictionary<Tuple<PropertyInfo, Type>, System.Collections.IEnumerable> map = null) {
this.connection = connection;
this.map = map ?? ReadDataIntoMemory();
}
Dictionary<Tuple<PropertyInfo, Type>, System.Collections.IEnumerable> ReadDataIntoMemory() {
Dictionary<Tuple<PropertyInfo,Type>, System.Collections.IEnumerable> map = new Dictionary<Tuple<PropertyInfo,Type>,System.Collections.IEnumerable>();
switch (connection.State) {
case System.Data.ConnectionState.Closed:
connection.Open();
break;
}
using (this.connection) {
var metaquery = from p in typeof(NorthindDbContext).GetProperties().Where(p => p.PropertyType.IsGenericType)
let elementType = p.PropertyType.GetGenericArguments()[0]
let dbsetType = typeof(DbSet<>).MakeGenericType(elementType)
where dbsetType.IsAssignableFrom(p.PropertyType)
select new Tuple<PropertyInfo, Type>(p, elementType);
foreach (var tuple in metaquery) {
map.Add(tuple, ExecuteReader(tuple));
}
this.connection.Close();
Database.Delete(this.connection);
}
return map;
}
protected override void Seed(NorthindDbContext context) {
foreach (var keyvalue in this.map) {
foreach (var obj in (System.Collections.IEnumerable)keyvalue.Value) {
PropertyInfo p = keyvalue.Key.Item1;
dynamic dbset = p.GetValue(context, null);
dbset.Add(((dynamic)obj));
}
}
context.SaveChanges();
base.Seed(context);
}
System.Collections.IEnumerable ExecuteReader(Tuple<PropertyInfo, Type> tuple) {
DbCommand cmd = this.connection.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandText = string.Format("select * from [dbo].[{0}]", tuple.Item2.Name);
DbDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
using (reader) {
ConstructorInfo ctor = typeof(Test.ObjectReader<>).MakeGenericType(tuple.Item2)
.GetConstructors()[0];
ParameterExpression p = Expression.Parameter(typeof(DbDataReader));
LambdaExpression newlambda = Expression.Lambda(Expression.New(ctor, p), p);
System.Collections.IEnumerable objreader = (System.Collections.IEnumerable)newlambda.Compile().DynamicInvoke(reader);
MethodCallExpression toArray = Expression.Call(typeof(Enumerable),
"ToArray",
new Type[] { tuple.Item2 },
Expression.Constant(objreader));
LambdaExpression lambda = Expression.Lambda(toArray, Expression.Parameter(typeof(IEnumerable<>).MakeGenericType(tuple.Item2)));
var array = (System.Collections.IEnumerable)lambda.Compile().DynamicInvoke(new object[] { objreader });
return array;
}
}
}
这个例子依赖于一个ObjectReader类,如果需要,你可以在这里找到它。
我建议不要去看博客文章,而是阅读文档。
最后,我仍然建议您在运行初始化之前备份数据库。(例如,如果Seed方法抛出异常,则所有数据都在内存中,因此一旦程序终止,您的数据就有丢失的风险。)模型更改并不是一个随意行为,所以请确保备份好您的数据。
