you can check this document to know how to add a custom filter.
https://abp.io/docs/latest/framework/infrastructure/data-filtering
I have already gone through the documentation when i try to keep the below code in dbcontext getting no suitable method to overload error on CreateFilterExpression method
protected bool IsBranchFilterEnabled => DataFilter?.IsEnabled<IBranchEntity>() ?? false;
protected int? CurrentBranchId => BranchContext?.CurrentBranchId;
protected override bool ShouldFilterEntity<TEntity>(IMutableEntityType entityType)
{
if (typeof(IBranchEntity).IsAssignableFrom(typeof(TEntity)))
{
return true; // Apply filter to all entities implementing IBranchEntity
}
return base.ShouldFilterEntity<TEntity>(entityType);
}
protected override Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>> CreateFilterExpression<TEntity>(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
var expression = base.CreateFilterExpression<TEntity>(modelBuilder);
if (typeof(IBranchEntity).IsAssignableFrom(typeof(TEntity)))
{
// Build the filter for BranchId
Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>> branchFilter = e =>
!IsBranchFilterEnabled ||
(EF.Property<int?>(e, "BranchId") == CurrentBranchId || EF.Property<int?>(e, "BranchId") == null);
// Combine the new filter with existing filters
expression = expression == null ? branchFilter : QueryFilterExpressionHelper.CombineExpressions(expression, branchFilter);
}
return expression;
}
I need to create a custom filter to filter my entity based on BranchId
. The BranchId
will be received as a List<long>
from the request headers or parameters. Here's the approach I followed:
Created IBranchEntity
Interface:
Domain.Shared
folder.BranchId
property, which I inherited in the relevant entity.Defined IBranchContext
Interface:
Entity Framework Filtering Logic:
Service Registration:
IBranchContext
in the HostModule.cs
under the ConfigureServices
method as follows:
context.Services.AddHttpContextAccessor();
context.Services.AddScoped<IBranchContext, BranchContext>();
Database Context Changes:
ClinicServiceDbContext
constructor to accept the IBranchContext
.
private readonly IBranchContext _branchContext;
public ClinicServiceDbContext(
DbContextOptions<ClinicServiceDbContext> options,
IBranchContext branchContext
) : base(options)
{
_branchContext = branchContext;
}
protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder builder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(builder);
builder.ConfigureClinicService();
builder.ConfigureBranchFilterForEntities(_branchContext);
}
After implementing the above, the filter is correctly identifying entities with the BranchFilter
when the application is initially loaded. However, it is not being triggered for subsequent requests.
