Hi,

Since this topic is asked by also other people, I decided to prepare a simple running application. Download it from here: <a class="postlink" href="https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/aspnetboilerplate-samples/tree/master/Others">https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/as ... ter/Others</a>

I created 2 different DbContext and 2 different migrations in same project. See migration command reference: <a class="postlink" href="http://coding.abel.nu/2012/03/ef-migrations-command-reference/">http://coding.abel.nu/2012/03/ef-migrat ... reference/</a>

I added a new connection string named 'Second':

<add name="Default" connectionString="Server=localhost; Database=MultipleDbContextDemo; Trusted_Connection=True;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
    <add name="Second" connectionString="Server=localhost; Database=MultipleDbContextDemoSecondDb; Trusted_Connection=True;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

Then Added second db context:

public class MySecondDbContext : AbpDbContext
    {
        public virtual IDbSet<Course> Courses { get; set; }

        public MySecondDbContext()
            : base("Second")
        {
            
        }
    }

Then enabled migrations:

Enable-Migrations -MigrationsDirectory "MigrationsSecond" -ContextTypeName "MySecondDbContext"

When using add-migration and update database, we use configuration type name, like:

Update-Database -ConfigurationTypeName "MultipleDbContextDemo.MigrationsSecond.Configuration"

An application services both dbcontext (over 2 repositories):

public class TestAppService : MultipleDbContextDemoAppServiceBase, ITestAppService
    {
        private readonly IRepository<Person> _persons;
        private readonly IRepository<Course> _courseRepository;

        public TestAppService(IRepository<Person> persons, IRepository<Course> courseRepository)
        {
            _persons = persons;
            _courseRepository = courseRepository;
        }

        public List<string> GetFromFirstDb()
        {
            var peopleNames = _persons.GetAllList().Select(p => p.PersonName).ToList();
            return peopleNames;
        }

        public List<string> GetFromSecondDb()
        {
            var courseNames =  _courseRepository.GetAllList().Select(p => p.CourseName).ToList();
            return courseNames;
        }

        public List<string> GetFromBothDbs()
        {
            List<string> names = new List<string>();

            var peopleNames = _persons.GetAllList().Select(p => p.PersonName).ToList();
            names.AddRange(peopleNames);

            var courseNames = _courseRepository.GetAllList().Select(p => p.CourseName).ToList();
            names.AddRange(courseNames);

            return names;
        }
    }

Note that: GetFromBothDbs() may not work. You should start Distributed Transaction Coordinator windows service..

For details, see source codes. After downloading solution, first create 2 databases using following commands:

Update-Database -ConfigurationTypeName "MultipleDbContextDemo.Migrations.Configuration"

Update-Database -ConfigurationTypeName "MultipleDbContextDemo.MigrationsSecond.Configuration"

I hope this help you.

Wow, nice =)

I will check this later. It works only for EF or does too for NH ?

Thanks

Hi,

This is for EF, not NH.

<cite>hikalkan: </cite> Hi,

This is for EF, not NH.

Ohhh, :| thats ok. I will try to make one to work with NH following your help on my topic.

Thanks again.

Thanks, It worked.

The mistake was this code:

/* NOTE: This constructor is used by ABP to pass connection string */ public Con2DbContext(string nameOrConnectionString) : base(nameOrConnectionString) { } When I removed this line after seeing your code...it worked.

Thanks again.

Hi, I am back trying to resolve my issue on this.

I want to make some changes so I can use that on NHibernate. I just need to make the changes you did on EntityFrameworkGenericRepositoryRegistrar on the NhRepositoryInstaller ?

thanks

Yes, while I haven't thought too much, it seems like that. The problem is: when you inject IRepository<Person> how can we know which session (database connection) will be used. I solved it for EF but not thought much for NH yet.

Hello Hikalkan

I am still trying to figure out how to do this, I found this article from Fabio Maulo but I can't figure how to implement this on your ABP framework. I am still very new to DI (using castle) and NHibernate.

If its not too much to ask, can you have a look e share some ideas ? [http://fabiomaulo.blogspot.com.br/2009/09/configure-sessionfactory-providers.html])

Thanks

Have you written any code? If so, you can share with us, so I can check it, maybe fix it.

nobruds created 8 years ago

Yes, I did some but not according that last article.

I made changes on AbpNHibernateModule.cs, AbpNHibernateConfigurationExtensions.cs and NhRepositoryInstaller.cs.

I will adapt it and post here.

thanks

I followed your steps and everything is working great, but the only problem is how to create a repository class for an entity from the second dbContext.

The repository class inherits from RepositroyBase<entity> and the constructor takes any class that inherts AbpDbContext class.

what i need now is to use Context property on my repository and see its own IDbSet<Entity>.

Hi,

There is a base repository class which accepts also a DbContext type. Example:

public class MyEntityRepository : EfRepositoryBase<MyDbContext, MyEntity, int>, IMyEntityRepository
        {
            public MyModuleRepositoryBase(IDbContextProvider<MyDbContext> dbContextProvider)
                : base(dbContextProvider)
            {
            }
        }

Hello Halil I was reading about unit of work and How aspnetboilerplate automatically start a transaction on calling any Application Service method here <a class="postlink" href="http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Unit-Of-Work">http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Docu ... it-Of-Work</a> Do you mean that Starting the MSDTC on the server will fix the issues regarding starting Two transaction ? Dose aspnetboilerplate unit of work deal with this scenarios where multi tenant application should use different database for each tenant ? Please help because I am new to aspnetboilerplate and I also should use Single Application/Multi Database approach.

My scenario is Single Deployment - Multiple Database in the below link I just want to make sure that aspnetboilerplate work with Single Deployment - Multiple Database or How I should implement my Application Service classes in order to get aspnetboilerplate works with Single Deployment - Multiple Database <a class="postlink" href="http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Multi-Tenancy">http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Docu ... ti-Tenancy</a>

We are working for "single deployment multiple database", or "database per tenant" architecture (in this branch: <a class="postlink" href="https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/aspnetboilerplate/tree/dev-db-per-tenant">https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/as ... per-tenant</a>). It will be finished and published soon. Currently, ABP itself is not ready to this architecture.
