如何在EF多对多关系中添加新记录？

Question

我正在研究我的教程项目我是新来的实体框架。

我有许多两个很多的关系表，我使用的代码第一approuch。

下面是表的定义：

class EmployeeDBContext : DbContext 
{ 
    public EmployeeDBContext() : base("DefaultConnection") { } 
    public DbSet<Course> Courses { get; set; } 
    public DbSet<Student> Students { get; set; } 
} 

//================================================My entities================================================= 
public class Student 
{ 
    [Key] 
    public int StudentID { get; set; } 
    public string StudentName { get; set; } 
    public virtual ICollection<Course> Courses { get; set; } 
} 

public class Course 
{ 

    [Key] 
    public int CourseID { get; set; } 
    public string CourseName { get; set; } 
    public virtual ICollection<Student> Students { get; set; } 
} 

充满了3门科目的课程表：历史，数学，物理。

我需要添加新学生并将学生与现有课程相关联。

任何想法如何实现它？

预先感谢您。

Answer 1

如果你需要创建一个学生，并添加一门课程（或更多的课程），以他EF做到这一点的方式是一样的用文字描述的...

using (var ctx= new EmployeeDBContext()) 
{ 
    // Create a new student (and set some properties) 
    Student student = new Student() 
    { 
     StudentName = "Scott Tiger" 
    }; 

    // Replace courseId with the course id that you need to add to the student 
    student.Courses.Add(ctx.Courses.Find(courseId)); 
    // Add other courses if you need to 

    // Let's write the student to the DB 
    ctx.Students.Add(student); 
    ctx.SaveChanges(); 

}

请尝试下面的代码： 取决于您是否要更新courseName或添加学生列表。

 public void UpdateCourse(string courseName, List<Student> students) 
     { 
      var dbInstance = new EmployeeDBContext(); 
      Course model = (from item in dbInstance.Courses 
          where item.CourseID = courseid 
          select item); 
      model.CourseName = courseName; 
      foreach(var item in students) 
       {  
       var currentStudent = from stud in dbInstance.Students 
         where stud.StudentId == item.StudentId; 
       if(currentStudent != null) 
       currentStudent.Name = item.Name; 
       else 
        dbInstance.Students.Add(new Student() {.StudentId = item.StudentId, .Name = item.Name}); 
      }; 
      dbInstance.SaveChanges(); 
     } 


public void CreateCourse(string courseName, List<Student> students) 
    { 
     var model = new Course(); 
     model.CourseName = courseName; 
     model.Students = students; 
     var dbInstance = new EmployeeDBContext(); 
     dbInstance.Courses.Add(model); 
     dbInstance.SaveChanges(); 
    }
