编辑用于XmlIgnore的实体框架模板文件.tt

Question

I have Entity Framework 6 template file. I would like to include [XmlIgnore] on public virtual ICollection as it can not be serialized.

This template file generates designer class and I do not want to edit designer class to include [XmlIgonre] by editing designer class once it's generated. I want to edit template so all lines with public virtual ICollection will have the [XmlIgnore] attribute.

you must be find and edit this (in your model tt file) :

<#
        foreach (var navigationProperty in navigationProperties)
        {
            if (navigationProperty.ToEndMember.RelationshipMultiplicity == RelationshipMultiplicity.Many)
            {
#>
    [System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Usage", "CA2227:CollectionPropertiesShouldBeReadOnly")]
<#
            }
#>
    <#=codeStringGenerator.NavigationProperty(navigationProperty)#>
<#
        }
    }
#>

To this :

<#
        foreach (var navigationProperty in navigationProperties)
        {
            if (navigationProperty.ToEndMember.RelationshipMultiplicity == RelationshipMultiplicity.Many)
            {
#>
    [System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Usage", "CA2227:CollectionPropertiesShouldBeReadOnly")]
    [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlIgnore]
<#
            }
#>
    <#=codeStringGenerator.NavigationProperty(navigationProperty)#>
<#
        }
    }
#>
