EF Core 2.0 已经支持自动生成父子关系表的实体

现在我们在SQL Server数据库中有Person表如下：

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Person](
    [ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
    [Code] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
    [Name] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
    [ParentCode] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
    [CreateTime] [datetime] NULL,
    [UpdateTime] [datetime] NULL,
 CONSTRAINT [PK_Person] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
(
    [ID] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO

ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Person] ADD  CONSTRAINT [DF_Person_CreateTime]  DEFAULT (getdate()) FOR [CreateTime]
GO

ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Person] ADD  CONSTRAINT [IX_Person] UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED 
(
    [Code] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ONLINE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
GO

ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Person]  WITH CHECK ADD  CONSTRAINT [FK_Person_Person] FOREIGN KEY([ParentCode])
REFERENCES [dbo].[Person] ([Code])
GO

ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Person] CHECK CONSTRAINT [FK_Person_Person]
GO

语句中有一个外键FK_Person_Person，关系是[Person].[ParentCode]指向[Person].[Code]，这是一个典型的父子关系表，[Person]表的一行数据属于另一行数据，关系可以无限递归。

现在我们使用EF Core的Scaffold-DbContext指令自动生成实体和DbContext，生成Person实体代码如下：

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace FFCoreView.Entities
{
    public partial class Person
    {
        public Person()
        {
            InverseParentCodeNavigation = new HashSet<Person>();
        }

        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Code { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public string ParentCode { get; set; }
        public DateTime? CreateTime { get; set; }
        public DateTime? UpdateTime { get; set; }

        public Person ParentCodeNavigation { get; set; }
        public ICollection<Person> InverseParentCodeNavigation { get; set; }
    }
}

我们可以看到Person实体中的属性public Person ParentCodeNavigation { get; set; }表示的是实体的父级Person。

Person实体中的属性public ICollection<Person> InverseParentCodeNavigation { get; set; }表示的是实体的所有子级Person。

再来看看Scaffold-DbContext指令自动生成的DbContext类TestDBContext：

using System;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata;

namespace FFCoreView.Entities
{
    public partial class TestDBContext : DbContext
    {
        public TestDBContext()
        {
        }

        public TestDBContext(DbContextOptions<TestDBContext> options)
            : base(options)
        {
        }

        public virtual DbSet<Person> Person { get; set; }

        protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder)
        {
            if (!optionsBuilder.IsConfigured)
            {
                optionsBuilder.UseSqlServer("Server=localhost;User Id=sa;Password=Dtt!123456;Database=TestDB");
            }
        }

        protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
        {
            modelBuilder.Entity<Person>(entity =>
            {
                entity.HasIndex(e => e.Code)
                    .HasName("IX_Person")
                    .IsUnique();

                entity.Property(e => e.Id).HasColumnName("ID");

                entity.Property(e => e.Code)
                    .IsRequired()
                    .HasMaxLength(50);

                entity.Property(e => e.CreateTime)
                    .HasColumnType("datetime")
                    .HasDefaultValueSql("(getdate())");

                entity.Property(e => e.Name).HasMaxLength(50);

                entity.Property(e => e.ParentCode).HasMaxLength(50);

                entity.Property(e => e.UpdateTime).HasColumnType("datetime");

                //设置了Person实体ParentCodeNavigation属性和InverseParentCodeNavigation属性的父子关系（一对多关系，一个Person对多个Person）
                entity.HasOne(d => d.ParentCodeNavigation)
                    .WithMany(p => p.InverseParentCodeNavigation)
                    .HasPrincipalKey(p => p.Code)
                    .HasForeignKey(d => d.ParentCode)
                    .HasConstraintName("FK_Person_Person");
            });
        }
    }
}

可以看到TestDBContext类的OnModelCreating方法中，已经用Fluent API设置了Person实体ParentCodeNavigation属性和InverseParentCodeNavigation属性的父子关系（一对多关系，一个Person对多个Person）。

然后我们在.NET Core控制台项目的Program类中定义了两个静态方法：

• AddPersonFromParentNavigation通过Person实体的ParentCodeNavigation属性插入父子关系数据到Person表
• AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation通过Person实体的InverseParentCodeNavigation集合属性插入父子关系数据到Person表

还有个DeleteAllPersons静态方法，用于清除Person表的数据。在Main方法中我们还通过循环逐层显示了Person数据的父子关系。

我们先调用AddPersonFromParentNavigation方法通过Person实体的ParentCodeNavigation属性插入父子关系数据到Person表：

using FFCoreView.Entities;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

namespace FFCoreView
{
    class Program
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// 通过Person实体的ParentCodeNavigation属性插入父子关系数据到Person表
        /// </summary>
        static void AddPersonFromParentNavigation()
        {
            //通过ParentCodeNavigation属性插入父子关系数据：James<-Tom<-Sam
            using (TestDBContext dbContext = new TestDBContext())
            {
                Person james = new Person()
                {
                    Code = "P001",
                    Name = "James"
                };

                Person tom = new Person()
                {
                    Code = "P002",
                    Name = "Tom",
                    ParentCodeNavigation = james//通过ParentCodeNavigation属性指定Tom的父级是James
                };

                Person sam = new Person()
                {
                    Code = "P003",
                    Name = "Sam",
                    ParentCodeNavigation = tom//通过ParentCodeNavigation属性指定Sam的父级是Tom
                };

                dbContext.Person.Add(james);
                dbContext.Person.Add(tom);
                dbContext.Person.Add(sam);

                dbContext.SaveChanges();
            }
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// 通过Person实体的InverseParentCodeNavigation集合属性插入父子关系数据到Person表
        /// </summary>
        static void AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation()
        {
            //通过InverseParentCodeNavigation集合属性插入父子关系数据：James<-Tom<-Sam
            using (TestDBContext dbContext = new TestDBContext())
            {
                Person james = new Person()
                {
                    Code = "P001",
                    Name = "James",
                    InverseParentCodeNavigation = new List<Person>()//通过InverseParentCodeNavigation集合属性指定James的子级是Tom
                    {
                        new Person()
                        {
                            Code = "P002",
                            Name = "Tom",
                            InverseParentCodeNavigation = new List<Person>()//通过InverseParentCodeNavigation集合属性指定Tom的子级是Sam
                            {
                                new Person()
                                {
                                    Code = "P003",
                                    Name = "Sam"
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                };

                dbContext.Person.Add(james);
                dbContext.SaveChanges();
            }
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// 删除数据库Person表的所有数据
        /// </summary>
        static void DeleteAllPersons()
        {
            using (TestDBContext dbContext = new TestDBContext())
            {
                dbContext.Database.ExecuteSqlCommand("DELETE FROM [dbo].[Person]");
            }
        }

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            DeleteAllPersons();
            AddPersonFromParentNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了
            //AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了

            Person rootPerson;
            using (TestDBContext dbContext = new TestDBContext())
            {
                //查询根级的Person "James"，并使用EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法查询下两级Person的InverseParentCodeNavigation集合
                rootPerson = dbContext.Person.Where(p => p.Name == "James").Include("InverseParentCodeNavigation.InverseParentCodeNavigation").First();
            }

            int level = 1;//用于计算当前显示到第几级的Person实体了

            //从rootPerson开始，通过Person实体的集合属性InverseParentCodeNavigation逐层遍历所有子Person集合，来显示Person的Name
            while (true)
            {
                //显示当前Person的层级数和Name
                Console.WriteLine($"Person level {level.ToString()} : {rootPerson.Name}");

                if(rootPerson.InverseParentCodeNavigation.Count==0)
                {
                    //如果rootPerson.InverseParentCodeNavigation.Count为0表示父子关系已经循环完毕，没有子级的Person了，跳出循环
                    break;
                }

                //设置rootPerson为子级Person，以便在循环中继续遍历
                rootPerson = rootPerson.InverseParentCodeNavigation.First();
                level++;//当前Person实体的层级数加1
            }

            Console.WriteLine("Press any key to quit...");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}

执行上面代码后，数据库Person表的数据如下所示：

控制台输出的内容如下：

如果我们在Main方法中注释掉AddPersonFromParentNavigation方法，改为使用AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法插入数据，会得到相同的结果。

使用EF Core删除父子关系数据

我们现在更改Program类Main方法的逻辑，来尝试删除父子关系的根级Person "James"，代码如下：

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    DeleteAllPersons();
    AddPersonFromParentNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了
    //AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了

            
    using (TestDBContext dbContext = new TestDBContext())
    {
        //查询根级的Person "James"，不使用EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法查询子级InverseParentCodeNavigation集合
        Person james = dbContext.Person.Where(p => p.Name == "James").First();
                
        dbContext.Person.Remove(james);
        dbContext.SaveChanges();//尝试删除Person "James"，结果报错：The DELETE statement conflicted with the SAME TABLE REFERENCE constraint "FK_Person_Person". 违反了外键的强制约束
    }

            
    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to quit...");
    Console.ReadKey();
}

执行上面代码，会在DbContext.SaveChanges方法调用时抛出异常，如下所示：

使用EF Core的日志功能我们可以看到在执行DbContext.SaveChanges方法时，EF Core执行的SQL语句如下：

=============================== EF Core log started ===============================
Failed executing DbCommand (29ms) [Parameters=[@p0='?' (DbType = Int32)], CommandType='Text', CommandTimeout='30']
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DELETE FROM [Person]
WHERE [ID] = @p0;
SELECT @@ROWCOUNT;
=============================== EF Core log finished ===============================

该SQL语句相当于是执行了：

DELETE FROM [Person]
WHERE [Name]=N'James'

很明显这个删除操作违反了我们在数据库中Person表上定义的外键[FK_Person_Person]的强制约束，[FK_Person_Person]的外键定义如下：

--注意下面写了关键字WITH CHECK表示该外键是强制约束
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Person]  WITH CHECK ADD  CONSTRAINT [FK_Person_Person] FOREIGN KEY([ParentCode])
REFERENCES [dbo].[Person] ([Code])
GO

所以很明显我们如果直接使用Delete语句删除Person表中父子关系的根级Person “Jame”，SQL Server会报错，当然有人可能会说如果我们设置外键不强制约束就不会报错了，但是这并不是一个好办法，我们来看看在强制约束下如何使用EF Core来删除Person表的根级Person。

下面我们继续更改Program类Main方法的逻辑，现在我们在读取Person表的根级Person “Jame”时，加上EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法将Person "James"的子节点Person "Tom"也查询出来：

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    DeleteAllPersons();
    AddPersonFromParentNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了
    //AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了


    using (TestDBContext dbContext = new TestDBContext())
    {
        //查询根级的Person "James"，使用EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法，将Person "James"的子节点Person "Tom"也查询出来
        Person james = dbContext.Person.Where(p => p.Name == "James").Include("InverseParentCodeNavigation").First();

        dbContext.Person.Remove(james);
        dbContext.SaveChanges();//尝试删除Person "James"，现在就不会报错了，数据在数据库中被成功删除
    }


    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to quit...");
    Console.ReadKey();
}

我们看到这一次删除成功执行了，没有报错，那么为什么这次没有违反数据库外键 [FK_Person_Person]的强制约束呢？我们查看EF Core生成的后台日志如下：

我们看到这次EF Core在执行DbContext.SaveChanges方法时执行了两个SQL语句，在执行Delete语句前还执行了一个Update语句，这个Update语句就是关键所在，它会先更新Person表中父子关系根级Person "James"的子节点Person "Tom"的ParentCode列为NULL，相当于下面的SQL语句：

UPDATE [Person] SET [ParentCode] = NULL
WHERE  [Name] = N'Tom'

这样后面再用Delete语句删除Person "James"时，就不会违反数据库外键 [FK_Person_Person]的强制约束了，所以我们看到这次执行完Program类Main方法的代码后，数据库Person表的数据如下所示：

我们可以看到Person "Tom"的ParentCode列为NULL，这就是Update语句的效果。

那么有没有办法在删除Person表中父子关系的根级Person "James"时，让EF Core也删除"James"所有的子孙节点呢（也就是将Tom和Sam也同时删除掉）？

首先我们更改Scaffold-DbContext指令自动生成的DbContext类TestDBContext，将其OnModelCreating方法更改如下：

protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
    modelBuilder.Entity<Person>(entity =>
    {
        entity.HasIndex(e => e.Code)
            .HasName("IX_Person")
            .IsUnique();

        entity.Property(e => e.Id).HasColumnName("ID");

        entity.Property(e => e.Code)
            .IsRequired()
            .HasMaxLength(50);

        entity.Property(e => e.CreateTime)
            .HasColumnType("datetime")
            .HasDefaultValueSql("(getdate())");

        entity.Property(e => e.Name).HasMaxLength(50);

        entity.Property(e => e.ParentCode).HasMaxLength(50);

        entity.Property(e => e.UpdateTime).HasColumnType("datetime");

        //设置了Person实体ParentCodeNavigation属性和InverseParentCodeNavigation属性的父子关系（一对多关系，一个Person对多个Person）
        entity.HasOne(d => d.ParentCodeNavigation)
            .WithMany(p => p.InverseParentCodeNavigation)
            .HasPrincipalKey(p => p.Code)
            .HasForeignKey(d => d.ParentCode)
            .OnDelete(DeleteBehavior.Cascade)//设置父子表的级联删除
            .HasConstraintName("FK_Person_Person");
    });
}

和前面不一样的地方用绿色高亮标记出来了，这次我们使用了Fluent API的OnDelete方法声明Person实体的父子外键关系是DeleteBehavior.Cascade级联删除的。

现在我们再将Program类Main方法改为如下，我们这次在查询Person表父子关系的根级节点Person "James"时，用EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法查询了下两级Person的InverseParentCodeNavigation集合，相当于还查询出了Person "Tom"和Person "Sam"，然后删除Person "James：

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    DeleteAllPersons();
    AddPersonFromParentNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了
    //AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation();//AddPersonFromParentNavigation和AddPersonFromChildrenNavigation方法调用一个就可以了


    using (TestDBContext dbContext = new TestDBContext())
    {
        //查询根级的Person "James"，并使用EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法查询下两级Person的InverseParentCodeNavigation集合，相当于还查询出了Person "Tom"和Person "Sam"
        Person james = dbContext.Person.Where(p => p.Name == "James").Include("InverseParentCodeNavigation.InverseParentCodeNavigation").First();

        dbContext.Person.Remove(james);
        dbContext.SaveChanges();//这次，父子关系的根级Person "James"及子孙级Person "Tom"和Person "Sam"被一起删除了
    }


    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to quit...");
    Console.ReadKey();
}

我们看看在执行DbContext.SaveChanges方法时，EF Core生成的后台日志：

我们看到由于我们在DbContext类TestDBContext的OnModelCreating方法中开启了级联删除，这次在执行DbContext.SaveChanges方法时，EF Core后台生成了三个Delete语句，其相当于如下SQL语句的效果：

DELETE FROM [Person]
WHERE [Name]=N'Sam'

DELETE FROM [Person]
WHERE [Name]=N'Tom'

DELETE FROM [Person]
WHERE [Name]=N'James'

所以Person “James”连同其子孙节点Person “Tom”和Person “Sam”被一起从数据库中删除了，最后数据库中Person表的数据如下所示：

因此我们看到在EF Core级联删除父子表的数据是可以的，但是有个最大的缺点，那就是必须先用EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法查询出所有要删除的子孙节点，试想一下我们怎么知道Person表中的父子关系有多少级呢，在本例中因为我们知道Person表只有三级数据:James<-Tom<-Sam，所以我们在Program类Main方法中是这么写的查询：

//查询根级的Person "James"，并使用EF Core中EagerLoading的Include方法查询下两级Person的InverseParentCodeNavigation集合，相当于还查询出了Person "Tom"和Person "Sam"
Person james = dbContext.Person.Where(p => p.Name == "James").Include("InverseParentCodeNavigation.InverseParentCodeNavigation").First();

但是实际场景中，我们很有可能不知道Person表的父子关系到底有多少级，所以我们无法知道上面的Include("InverseParentCodeNavigation.InverseParentCodeNavigation")中InverseParentCodeNavigation集合属性该写多少次。所以删除父子关系表数据最好的办法还是使用EF Core调用SQL Server中的存储过程，在存储过程中用递归算法删除父子关系数据。
