Features

  • Soft delete (DeletedAt).
  • Timestamps (CreatedAt, UpdatedAt).

Both features support DateTime and Unix Time Milliseconds format.

DateTime using Utc format

Example of Unix Time Milliseconds: currentmillis

Get started

run this command to install

Install-Package Idam.Libs.EF

or

dotnet tool install Idam.Libs.EF

Usage

Using Timestamps

  1. Add AddTimestamps() in your context.

    using Idam.Libs.EF.Extensions;
    
    public class MyDbContext : DbContext
    {
        public override int SaveChanges(bool acceptAllChangesOnSuccess)
        {
            ChangeTracker.AddTimestamps();
            return base.SaveChanges(acceptAllChangesOnSuccess);
        }
    
        public override Task<int> SaveChangesAsync(bool acceptAllChangesOnSuccess, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
        {
            ChangeTracker.AddTimestamps();
            return base.SaveChangesAsync(acceptAllChangesOnSuccess, cancellationToken);
        }
    }
    
  2. Implement an Interface (ITimeStamps or ITimeStampsUnix) to your entity.

    using Idam.Libs.EF.Interfaces;
    
    /// Using DateTime Format
    public class Boo : ITimeStamps
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; } = default!;
        public string? Description { get; set; }
        public DateTime CreatedAt { get; set; }
        public DateTime UpdatedAt { get; set; }
    }
    
    /// Using Unix Format
    public class Foo : ITimeStampsUnix
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; } = default!;
        public string? Description { get; set; }
        public long CreatedAt { get; set; }
        public long UpdatedAt { get; set; }
    }
    

Using SoftDelete

  1. Add AddTimestamps() and AddSoftDeleteFilter() in your context. see below.

    using Idam.Libs.EF.Extensions;
    
    public class MyDbContext : DbContext
    {
        public override int SaveChanges(bool acceptAllChangesOnSuccess)
        {
            ChangeTracker.AddTimestamps();
            return base.SaveChanges(acceptAllChangesOnSuccess);
        }
    
        public override Task<int> SaveChangesAsync(bool acceptAllChangesOnSuccess, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
        {
            ChangeTracker.AddTimestamps();
            return base.SaveChangesAsync(acceptAllChangesOnSuccess, cancellationToken);
        }
    
        protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
        {
            modelBuilder.AddSoftDeleteFilter();
    
            base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
        }
    }
    
  2. Implement an Interface (ISoftDelete or ISoftDeleteUnix) to your entity.

    using Idam.Libs.EF.Interfaces;
    
    /// Using DateTime Format
    public class Boo : ISoftDelete
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; } = default!;
        public string? Description { get; set; }
        public DateTime? DeletedAt { get; set; }
    }
    
    /// Using Unix Format
    public class Foo : ISoftDeleteUnix
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; } = default!;
        public string? Description { get; set; }
        public long? DeletedAt { get; set; }
    }
    

The SoftDelete has a restore function, so you can restore the deleted data, see below.

using Idam.Libs.EF.Extensions;

/// Your context
public class MyDbContext : DbContext
{
    public DbSet<Foo> Foos => Set<Foo>();
}

/// Foo Controller
public class FooController
{
    readonly MyDbContext context;

    public async Task<IActionResult> RestoreAsync(Foo foo)
    {
        Foo restoredFoo = context.Foos.Restore(foo);
        await context.SaveChangesAsync();
        
        return Ok(restoredFoo);
    }
}

Also, you can ignore the global softdelete filter by using IgnoreQueryFilters(). See below.

public class FooController
{
    public async Task<IActionResult> GetAllDeletedAsync()
    {
        var deletedFoos = await context.Foos
            .IgnoreQueryFilters()
            .Where(x => x.DeletedAt != null)
            .ToListAsync();

        return Ok(deletedFoos);
    }
}

You can permanently delete data that has a DeletedAt value.

Using IGuidEntity

An Interface to implement Id as Guid instead of int.

using Idam.Libs.EF.Interfaces;

public class Foo : IGuidEntity
{
    public Guid Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; } = default!;
    public string? Description { get; set; }
}

Migrating

Migrating from 2.0.1

  1. If you implements ITimeStamps and/or ISoftDelete in your entities before, update your CreatedAt and UpdatedAt to UTC datetime.

  2. Update DbContext

    Inside SaveChanges() and SaveChangesAsync()

    /// before
    ChangeTracker.Entries().AddTimestamps();
    
    /// to
    ChangeTracker.AddTimestamps();
    

    Inside OnModelCreating()

     /// before
     var entityTypes = modelBuilder.Model.GetEntityTypes();
    modelBuilder.AddSoftDeleteFilter(entityTypes);
    
    /// to
    modelBuilder.AddSoftDeleteFilter();
