I have a an entity referencing another entity by MappedLongForeignKey.
I am using the CRUDify trait and have a problem.
Entity 1:
id
title (String)
validTo (Date)
Entity 2:
id
...
fk_entity_1 (mapped via MappedLongForeignKey)
In the listings generated by CRUDify for entity 2 I would like to include a column formatted as
fk_entity_1.title ( fk_entity_1.validTo )
I tried to create a function returning such a string and adding that fn to fieldsForDisplay, but it seems fieldsForDisplay requires mapped fields.
Is this possible to accomplish?
* Edit *
What I am trying to accomplish is (using the built in functionality of CRUDify for listings) produce listings as:
{Entity 2 fields} "Entity 1"
... Title_X (2001-01-01)
... Title_Y (2011-02-02)
If worse comes to worst, I can roll my own listings, but I really like the CRUDify functionality.
I'm not quite sure what you're trying to accomplish, but maybe you could override the asHtml method of the fields instead?

I have a table foo where one of the column is bar of type jsonb which contains property foo_bar jsonb.
I want to get count of elements with such ef core query:
await dbContext.Foo.CountAsync(x => x.bar.FooBar.Name == "some name");
Ef core generates such query:
SELECT COUNT(*)::INT
FROM foo AS f
WHERE f.bar#>>'{FooBar,Name}' = 'SomeName'
It doesn't work for me because of instead of right property name foo_bar ef core generates FooBar (as my .net property) and instead of name ef core generates Name.
If there a way to make ef core generate the following query:
SELECT COUNT(*)::INT
FROM foo AS f
WHERE f.bar#>>'{foo_bar,name}' = 'Production'
I tried to mark my FooBar property with [JsonPropertyName("foo_bar")] attribute.
Also I tried to use fluent approach:
entity.Property<FooBar>("FooBar").HasColumnName("foo_bar").HasColumnType("jsonb");
Both of them doesn't work.
Support for [JsonPropertyName] has just been added, and will work starting from version 5.0.0-preview6.
I Found a workaround - name .net properties as they named in db.
So in my case it would be .net property like:
public FooBar foo_bar { get; set; }
Looks ugly, but works
I have a model written using Entity Framework Code First called Project.
In my UI, there is a page called ProjectEdit as shown in the image below. As seen in the image below, Customer and BOMs are Lookup Edit.
I'm trying to load Customer and BOMs to Lookup Edit but it's not working. Below is my code.
//New
if (entity == null)
{
Entity = new Project();
}
//Edit
else
{
ProjectCodeTextEdit.DataBindings.Add("EditValue", entity, "ProjectCode");
DescriptionTextEdit.DataBindings.Add("EditValue", entity, "Description");
CustomerLookUpEdit.DataBindings.Add("EditValue", entity, "CustomerId");
BOMsLookUpEdit.DataBindings.Add("EditValue", entity, "BOMs");
}
Below is my LookUpEdit Properties.
Generally LookUpEdit object's data binding is not implemented the same way as a TextEdit object's. While in TextEdits's case you just need to assign the variable value to EditValue property (I suppose your TextEdits binding work fine, isn't it?), with LookUp Edit you should assign variables to ValueMember and a DisplayMember properties of the object. That is why we usually display data rows with LookUpEdit objects, where ValueMember is the identification field of the row and DisplayMember is the field of the row whose value you wish to be displayed.
In your case you should be more clear about what you wish to display in your lookupedits. Each Project instance has one Customer property and many BOMs, right? So CustomerLookUpEdit will show one record and BOMsLookUpEdit a list of values according to the Project object that was chosen for edit, correct? I suppose that both your Customer and BOM classes have some kind of ID property and description property of their own. In this case you should bind these values to the LookUpEdits. eg. in your initialization function code add these lines
CustomerLookUpEdit.Properties.DataSource = entity.Customer;
CustomerLookUpEdit.Properties.ValueMember = "someCustomerIDpropertyName" ;
CustomerLookUpEdit.Properties.DisplayMember = "someCustomerDescriptionpropertyName";
BOMsLookUpEdit.Properties.DataSource = entity.BOMs;
BOMsLookUpEdit.Properties.ValueMember = "someBOMIDpropertyName" ;
BOMsLookUpEdit.Properties.DisplayMember = "someBOMDescriptionpropertyName" ;
You can read more in this topic https://documentation.devexpress.com/#WindowsForms/clsDevExpressXtraEditorsLookUpEdittopic
When we are adding entities to a List, we have to take care of our DataSource if is a DBContext or a DBSet, each one has implications in the compiler, that was your case, in this case you had to especify your DataSource like a DBSet and get the Entities
Add<TEntity>(TEntity entity)
The type parameter omitted is posible because the compiler will infer it.
Haven't seen this error before, and a cursory web search turns up very little. Here's (I think) the offending code:
this.HasMany(a => a.ListItems).WithRequired()
.Map(m =>
{
m.MapKey("AttributeId");
m.ToTable("ProductAttributeListItem");
}
)
;
And here's the full error:
The specified table 'ProductAttributeListItem' was not found in the
model. Ensure that the table name has been correctly specified.
The table is there and spelled correctly.
The lack of search results makes me think I'm missing something obvious. What might that be?
If you want to define the table name of the entity ListItems is refering to you need to do that on the entity, not in the relationship mapping:
modelBuilder.Entity<ListItem>() // or whatever the entity is called
.ToTable("ProductAttributeListItem");
And remove m.ToTable from the Map action.
I want to include child objects on an IQueryable list..
I want to include a child object on selected columns of some table type IQueryable list..
I tried like this:
IQueryable<Persons> persons = Context.Persons.Select(x=> new persons{Pkid=x.pkid, FirstName=x.FirstName}).AsQueryable();
persons= persons.Include("Address");
this include of child objects is not working..anyone please help...where I am doing wrong..
thanks alot...
Include doesn't work with projection. Moreover it is not needed. Just do this:
var query = context.Persons
.Select(x => new PersonDto
{
Id = x.pkid,
FirstName = x.FirstName,
Address = x.Address
});
Few points here:
No Include
Address accessed directly in projection, EF will handle this
I'm using PersonDto as target of projection. PersonDto has just Id, FirstName and Address.
You can project to custom type or anonymous type but you cannot project to entity type (the mapped type) - it doesn't work and it throws exception.
If you want to use mapped type you can't return only selected scalar columns - all columns will always be loaded. Only navigation properties can be loaded selectively. To overcome this people sometimes use Table splitting but that is something which works if you can divide your big entity into disjunct entities. In your scenario use just projection.
You cannot use Include() on a projection, try this:
Iquerable<Persons> persons = Context.Persons
.Include("Address")
.Select(x=> new persons{Pkid=x.pkid, FirstName=x.FirstName})
.AsQuerable();
Also you have a naming conflict, you project to a type persons and want to hold the results in an IQueryable named persons - one of them is wrong. Is there a reason you need the projection at all? You could just do
Iquerable<Persons> persons = Context.Persons.Include("Address");
First: Check if lazy loading is enabled or not. I experienced different results when it was enabled. I prefer lazy loading being disabled.
Second: Check this syntax:
result = (From person In context.Persons.Include("Address")).ToList();
P.S.: Useful EF Tips & Tricks : http://blogs.msdn.com/b/alexj/archive/2009/03/26/index-of-tips.aspx
UPDATE:
Include is not working, because your are using it on newly created objects, not the objects available in the context. you should use Include before creating new objects.
Check This:
result = (From person In context.Persons.Include("Address") Select New With {.FirstName = item.FirstName, .AddressValue = item.Address.Value}).ToList();
I'm using Symfony 1.2 with Doctrine. I have a Place model with translations in two languages. This Place model has also a nested set behaviour.
I'm having problems now creating a new place that belongs to another node. I've tried two options but both of them fail:
1 option
$this->mergeForm(new PlaceTranslationForm($this->object->Translation[$lang->getCurrentCulture()]));
If I merge the form, what happens is that the value of the place_id field id an array. I suppose is because it is waiting a real object with an id. If I try to set place_id='' there is another error.
2 option
$this->mergeI18n(array($lang->getCurrentCulture()));
public function mergeI18n($cultures, $decorator = null)
{
if (!$this->isI18n())
{
throw new sfException(sprintf('The model "%s" is not internationalized.', $this->getModelName()));
}
$class = $this->getI18nFormClass();
foreach ($cultures as $culture)
{
$i18nObject = $this->object->Translation[$culture];
$i18n = new $class($i18nObject);
unset($i18n['id']);
$i18n->widgetSchema['lang'] = new sfWidgetFormInputHidden();
$this->mergeForm($i18n); // pass $culture too
}
}
Now the error is:
Couldn't hydrate. Found non-unique key mapping named 'lang'.
Looking at the sql, the id is not defined; so it can't be a duplicate record (I have a unique key (id, lang))
Any idea of what can be happening?
thanks!
It looks like the issues you are having are related to embedding forms within each other, which can be tricky. You will likely need to do things in the updateObject/bind methods of the parent form to get it to pass its values correctly to its child forms.
This article is worth a read:
http://www.blogs.uni-osnabrueck.de/rotapken/2009/03/13/symfony-merge-embedded-form/comment-page-1/
It gives some good info on how embedding (and mergeing) forms work. The technique the article uses will probably work for you, but I've not used I18n in sf before, so it may well be that there is a more elegant solution built in?
