Entity Framework Extensions PreBulkInsert

Description

The PreBulkInsert event is raised as soon as the BulkInsert method is called and no configuration or anything else is done before. It allows you to set some global configuration for BulkInsert.

Example

The following example sets the CreatedDate property of a Customer.

EntityFrameworkManager.PreBulkInsert = (ctx, obj) => 
{
    if(obj is IEnumerable<Customer>) 
    {
        foreach(var customer in (IEnumerable<Customer>)obj)
        {
            customer.CreatedDate = DateTime.Now;
        }
    }
};

Try it in EF Core | Try it in EF6

In the PreBulkInsert event, the CreatedDate property is set to DateTime.Now before the data is inserted to the database.
