Specifying Collection Name in RavenDB

Question

So lets say I have 3 objects Fruit, Apple and Orange. Fruit is the abstract base class for Apple and Orange. When I use session.Store(myApple), it puts it into the Apples co

Answer 1

Awl, You can do it using:

session.Store(apple);
session.Advanced.GetMetadataFor(apple)[Constants.RavenEntityName] = "Fruits";

That is the long way to do so. A much better way would be to add this logic globally, it looks something like this:

store.Conventions.FindTypeTagName = 
   type => type.IsSubclassOf(typeof(Fruit)) ? 
       DocumentConvention.DefaultTypeTagName(typeof(Fruit)) : 
       DocumentConvention.DefaultTypeTagName(type);

That will handle this for everything.
