工欲善其事必先利其器，在这之前先来介绍一款T4编辑器T4 Editor，我们可以点击链接去下载然后安装，不过还是推荐大家直接在VS扩展管理器里直接安装来的方便 工具->扩展管理器->联机库 搜索 "T4 Editor"，选择第一项 "tangible T4 Editor 2.0 plus modeling tools for VS2010" 进行安装即可，如下图所示:
安装上T4 Editor后，编辑T4模板是就有代码着色和智能提示了，下图为安装T4 Editor后的代码着色效果，怎么样是不是耳目一新，呵呵
接下来开始正式进入我们的主题，从数据库自动生成实体类
- 新建一个控制台项目，然后添加T4模板，这里我们起名字为Customers.tt
- 修改输出文件扩展名为.cs
<#@ output extension=".cs" #>
- 添加常用的程序集和命名空间引用
<#@ assembly name="System.Core.dll" #> <#@ assembly name="System.Data.dll" #> <#@ assembly name="System.Data.DataSetExtensions.dll" #> <#@ assembly name="System.Xml.dll" #> <#@ import namespace="System" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Xml" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Linq" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Data" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Collections.Generic" #> <#@ import namespace="System.IO" #>
- 添加数据库操作DbHelper引用

DbHelper相对比较复杂，把一些常用操作进行了简单封装，因此放到一个单独的文件里面进行引用，可以方便的进行复用，这里DbHelper的后缀名使用ttinclude，这里的后缀名可以随便起，按照微软的建议：用于include的文件尽量不要使用.tt做后缀名
- 在页面底部定义一些常用变量，以方便操作
<#+ public class config { public static readonly string ConnectionString="Data Source=(local);Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=Northwind;"; public static readonly string DbDatabase="Northwind"; public static readonly string TableName="Customers"; } #>这里我们把数据库连接串和数据库、表名字定义一下，方便修改和使用
- 最后来编写用于实体类生成的代码
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // <auto-generated> // 此代码由T4模板自动生成 // 生成时间 <#=DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss")#> by 懒惰的肥兔 // 对此文件的更改可能会导致不正确的行为，并且如果 // 重新生成代码，这些更改将会丢失。 // </auto-generated> //------------------------------------------------------------------------------ using System; namespace T4ConsoleApplication.Entities { public class <#=config.TableName#> { <# foreach(DbColumn column in DbHelper.GetDbColumns(config.ConnectionString, config.DbDatabase, config.TableName)){#> /// <summary> /// <#=column.Remark#> /// </summary> public <#= column.CSharpType#><# if(column.CommonType.IsValueType && column.IsNullable){#>?<#}#> <#=column.ColumnName#> { get; set; } <#}#> } }
- 全部完成后我们的Customers.tt文件就编写好了
<#@ template debug="false" hostspecific="false" language="C#" #> <#@ output extension=".cs" #> <#@ assembly name="System.Core.dll" #> <#@ assembly name="System.Data.dll" #> <#@ assembly name="System.Data.DataSetExtensions.dll" #> <#@ assembly name="System.Xml.dll" #> <#@ import namespace="System" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Xml" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Linq" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Data" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" #> <#@ import namespace="System.Collections.Generic" #> <#@ import namespace="System.IO" #> <#@ include file="$(ProjectDir)DbHelper.ttinclude" #> //------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // <auto-generated> // 此代码由T4模板自动生成 // 生成时间 <#=DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss")#> by 懒惰的肥兔 // 对此文件的更改可能会导致不正确的行为，并且如果 // 重新生成代码，这些更改将会丢失。 // </auto-generated> //------------------------------------------------------------------------------ using System; namespace T4ConsoleApplication.Entities { public class <#=config.TableName#> { <# foreach(DbColumn column in DbHelper.GetDbColumns(config.ConnectionString, config.DbDatabase, config.TableName)){#> /// <summary> /// <#=column.Remark#> /// </summary> public <#= column.CSharpType#><# if(column.CommonType.IsValueType && column.IsNullable){#>?<#}#> <#=column.ColumnName#> { get; set; } <#}#> } } <#+ public class config { public static readonly string ConnectionString="Data Source=(local);Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=Northwind;"; public static readonly string DbDatabase="Northwind"; public static readonly string TableName="Customers"; } #>
进行保存后会自动生成Customers.cs文件

至此完整演示了怎样一步步根据数据库生成实体类的操作，是不是很简单，如对语法和操作不理解的地方可以参考T4模版引擎之基础入门，稍微用心研究下，轻松打造属于自己的代码生成器。
本文简单介绍了基于单个模板生成数据库实体类的示例，离具体实用还有一定的距离，毕竟总不能为每个数据表建一个模板吧，下一篇将揭晓如何通过单个T4模板生成多个文件，以及自动生成整个数据库的所有实体类，敬请期待
