Output Identity Value

Overcome SqlBulkCopy limitations and use flexible features to output inserted identity and concurrency column values.

Bulk Operations - Output Identity Example

var bulk = new BulkOperation(connection)

// Output newly inserted identity value after an insert
bulk.ColumnMappings.Add("CustomerID", ColumnMappingDirectionType.Output);

bulk.BulkInsert(dt);

Try it

Insert, Update, Delete, Merge and more...

Bulk Operations is not only about inserting, get more capability over SqlBulkCopy.

BulkInsert
BulkUpdate
BulkDelete
BulkMerge (Upsert)
BulkSaveChanges
BulkSynchronize

Bulk Operations - Methods Example

// Support all type of operations
var bulk = new BulkOperation(connection);
bulk.BulkInsert(dt);
bulk.BulkUpdate(dt);
bulk.BulkDelete(dt);
bulk.BulkMerge(dt);
bulk.BulkSaveChanges(ds);
bulk.BulkSynchronize(dt);

Generic List<> as DataSource

Improve code maintainability by using strongly-typed lambda expression over hard coded string.

Use Bulk Operations with Generic List<>
Use Bulk Operations with Expando Object
Use Lambda Expression for mapping

Bulk Operations - Entity Example

var bulk= new BulkOperation<Customer>(connection);
bulk.DestinationTableName = "Customer";

// Column Columns to Input
bulk.ColumnInputExpression = c => new { c.Code, c.Name };

// Choose Columns to Output
bulk.ColumnOutputExpression = c => c.CustomerID;

// Choose Key to Use
bulk.ColumnPrimaryKeyExpression = c => c.Code;

bulk.BulkMerge(customers);

Bulk Operations from LINQ Query

Perform bulk operations from LINQ Query without loading entities in memory.

DeleteFromQuery
UpdateFromQuery

Bulk Operations - Batch Delete & Update Example

var bulk = new BulkOperation<Customer>(connection);

// DELETE all customers inactive for more than 2 years
bulk.DeleteFromQuery(
    c => c.Where(x => x.LastLogin < DateTime.Now.AddYears(-2)));

// UPDATE all customers inactive for more than 2 years
bulk.UpdateFromQuery(
    c => c.Where(x => x.Active && x.LastLogin < DateTime.Now.AddYears(-2)),
    c => new Customer {Active = false});

AutoMap with Case Insensitive

Sick of not being able to map column because of case sensitivity issue? Use flexible features to customize configuration

Auditing
Batch Size
Case Sensitivity
Logging

Bulk Operations - Case Insensitive Example

var bulk = new BulkOperation(connection);
bulk.CaseSensitive = CaseSensitiveType.Insensitive;
bulk.ColumnMappings.Add("cOdE", "Code");
bulk.BulkMerge(dt);

C# Bulk Operations BulkInsert, BulkDelete, BulkUpdate, BulkMerge, and more!
