Interface ISeedProfile<T>

A reusable, named bundle of seed data that can be applied to any DbContextBuilder<T> in a single call via UseSeedProfile(ISeedProfile<T>).

Namespace: Wolfgang.DbContextBuilderCore

Assembly: Wolfgang.DbContextBuilder-Core.dll

Syntax

public interface ISeedProfile<T> where T : DbContext

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The DbContext type the profile seeds.

Remarks

Seed profiles encapsulate a complete set of seed entities so the same setup can be shared across many test classes instead of being re-built in each one. Implement Apply(DbContextBuilder<T>) to call SeedWith one or more times on the supplied builder.

Examples

public sealed class StandardCatalogue : ISeedProfile<ShopDbContext>
{
    public void Apply(DbContextBuilder<ShopDbContext> builder) =>
        builder.SeedWith(
            new Product { Name = "Widget" },
            new Product { Name = "Gadget" });
}

await using var context = await new DbContextBuilder<ShopDbContext>()
    .UseInMemory()
    .UseSeedProfile(new StandardCatalogue())
    .BuildAsync();

Methods

Apply(DbContextBuilder<T>)

Applies this profile's seed data to builder, typically by calling SeedWith one or more times.

Declaration

void Apply(DbContextBuilder<T> builder)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
DbContextBuilder<T>	builder	The builder to seed.
