I have the following data object:
public class Customer : System.Data.Entity.ModelConfiguration.EntityTypeConfiguration<Customer>
{
public Customer ()
{
// this.HasRequired(a => a.EyeColorType).WithMany().HasForeignKey(a => a.EyeColorTypeID);
}
[Key]
public int ID { get; set; }
[Required]
[MaxLength(100)]
public string FirstName { get; set; }
[Required]
[MaxLength(100)]
public string LastName { get; set; }
[Required]
[ForeignKey("EyeColorTypeID")]
public EyeColorType EyeColorType { get; set; }
// public int EyeColorTypeID { get; set; }
}
}
What I am trying to do, is expose the field EyeColorTypeID
on the generated Customer property, as well as specify the name in the DB.
If I remove both comments, it works, but I would like to use a data annotation for this. Something like [ExposeForeignKey("EyeColorTypeID")]
and have it all happen automatically.
Is this possible? How would I go about that?
Just add it to the model and make the navigation property virtual (for lazy loading):
public class Customer : //etc
{
//your stuff
[Required]
public int EyeColorTypeID {get; set;}
public virtual EyeColorType EyeColorType { get; set; }
}
The naming conventions of EF will bind the EyeColorTypeID
to the EyeColorType
navigation property.
