Classes and interfaces

In this section, each class and interface of the concept will be explained in details.

Kipon.Xrm.IRepository<T>

Interface that represent CRUD operation for a specific entity T, where T extends Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Entity.

Actually implementations are generated by the crmsvcutil.

Specific types can be injected into any plugin step or service constructor, ex Kipon.Xrm.IRepository<Entities.Account>

• IQueryable<T> GetQuery()

  Get a query you can use to do Linq based queries fetching the entity type represented by T

• T GetById(Guid id)

  The the instance of T that has the id represented by the parameter. This method will throw an exception if no record of type T exists with that id

• void Delete(T entity)

  Delete the record T from the database

• void Add(T entity)

  Create a new instance of entity T according to the payload of T

• void Update(T entity)

  Update the instance T, saving information to the database

• void Attach(T entity)

  Attach entity to the service cache. (rarely used, and the Kipon framework is overwriting the default behavior of the CRM context, so nothing is cached by default)

• void Detach(T entity)

  Remove the instance from the cache.
