问题
I am trying to insert categories and subcategories from Excel into a database table.
I have 1 Excel file which contains some data and from this Excel file I am creating dataset
which contains lots of datatables
.
In this dataset
I have 2 datatables
in the form of this:
Datatable 0 with records:Category
ParentCategory Description
Electronics jhdkhsd
Sports kjshfhs
Datatable 1 with records:SubCategory
Subcategory ParentCategory Description
Mobile Electronics weprwp
Tv Electronics sdflskd
Balls Sports kjshdfkjh
Shoes Sports uytuyt
Now my database tables are like this:
Category:Id,Name,Description,parentid
So far I am successful inserting parent category but now trying to insert child categories but that is where currently i am struggling.
This my code so far:
var dsFinal = new DataSet();
//Some code to read excel sheets and data from excel and create datatables and records with it.
dsControlSheet.Tables[0].Columns.Add("Id");
DataColumn parentId = new DataColumn("ParentId", typeof(int));
parentId.DefaultValue = 0;
dsFinal.Tables[0].Columns.Add(parentId);
dsFinal.Relations.Add("Abc",dsFinal.Tables[0].Columns["ParentCategory"],
dsFinal.Tables[1].Columns["ParentCategory"],false); //creating relation ship between Category datatable
// and SubCategory datatable on field ParentCategory
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(""))
{
SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter();
var insertCommand = new SqlCommand("insert into Category (Name,Description) values (@ParentCategory,@Description) SET @Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY()", connection);
var parameter = insertCommand.Parameters.Add("@Id", SqlDbType.Int, 0, "Id");
insertCommand.Parameters.Add("@ParentCategory", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "ParentCategory");
insertCommand.Parameters.Add("@Description", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "Description");
parameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
insertCommand.UpdatedRowSource = UpdateRowSource.OutputParameters;
adapter.InsertCommand = insertCommand;
adapter.Update(dsFinal.Tables[0]); //successfully inserted parent category and got autoincremented value in Id column of my 0th datatable
//trying to insert child category using above insert command
foreach (DataRow parentCategory in dsFinal.Tables[0].Rows)
{
var child = parentCategory.GetChildRows("Abc").CopyToDataTable();//get child category of particular parent
adapter.Update(child);
}
}
Here in the last loop to insert child category; I am confused about how to use
same insertCommand
variable to insert child category?
Update:I have used datatable Expression
to calculate parentid
like this:
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(""))
{
SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter();
var insertCommand = new SqlCommand("insert into Category (Name,Description) values (@ParentCategory,@Description) SET @Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY()", connection);
var parameter = insertCommand.Parameters.Add("@Id", SqlDbType.Int, 0, "Id");
insertCommand.Parameters.Add("@ParentCategory", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "ParentCategory");
insertCommand.Parameters.Add("@Description", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "Description");
parameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
insertCommand.UpdatedRowSource = UpdateRowSource.OutputParameters;
adapter.InsertCommand = insertCommand;
adapter.Update(dsFinal.Tables[0]); //successfully inserted parent category and got autoincremented value in Id column of my 0th datatable
//For inserting child category..
//added column parentid to store child category
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter();
dsFinal.Tables[1].Columns.Add("ParentId", typeof(int), "IIF(Parent.ParentCategory=ParentCategory,parent.Id,0)");
var insertChildCategoryCommand = new SqlCommand("insert into Category (Name,Description,ParentId) values (@Subcategory,@Description,@ParentId) SET @Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY()", connection);
var parameter1 = insertChildCategoryCommand.Parameters.Add("@Id", SqlDbType.Int, 0, "Id");
insertChildCategoryCommand.Parameters.Add("@Subcategory", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "Subcategory");
insertChildCategoryCommand.Parameters.Add("@Description", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "Description");
insertChildCategoryCommand.Parameters.Add("@ParentId", SqlDbType.int, 0, "ParentId");
parameter1.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
insertChildCategoryCommand.UpdatedRowSource = UpdateRowSource.OutputParameters;
da.InsertCommand = insertChildCategoryCommand;
//Error here that computed column cannot be inserted.Here computed column is parentid
da.Update(dsFinal.Tables[1]);
}
Error:Computed column(parentid) cannot be inserted
.

You are almost there with latest code.
The only problem is that the calculated columns are not allowed to be used for inserting/updating the database table. Btw, the error message is not "Computed column(parentid) cannot be inserted.", but:
The column mapping from SourceColumn 'ParentId' failed because the DataColumn 'ParentId' is a computed column.
I could agree that the message could have been better, and also I didn't find any documentation describing that. Most probably the rationale is that the computed columns are not normally stored.
Whatever the reason is, that's the reality. You have no other choice than creating a regular column and populating it with data manually.
There are many ways to do that (both efficient and ineffient), but once you already created a relation, you can use the DataRow.GetParentRow method to locate the related category record.
With all that being said, replace the line
dsFinal.Tables[1].Columns.Add("ParentId", typeof(int),
"IIF(Parent.ParentCategory=ParentCategory,parent.Id,0)");
with the following snippet:
var dtSubCategory = dsFinal.Tables[1];
dtSubCategory.Columns.Add("ParentId", typeof(int));
foreach (var drSubCategory in dtSubCategory.AsEnumerable())
{
var drCategory = drSubCategory.GetParentRow("Abc");
drSubCategory["ParentId"] = drCategory != null ? drCategory["Id"] : 0;
}
and you are done.
EDIT: Let me make it clear. The only time critical operation here is locating the category id by name. Using the relation and GetParentRow
is equivalent of the evaluating the expression accessing parent
as in your attempt. Data relation internally maintains a lookup structure for supporting such operations.
If you want to get the best possible performance, then don't create a relation, but a dictionary. What you need is given a name (string), find the corresponding id (int), so Dictionary<string, int>
is a perfect candidate for that:
var categoryIds = dsFinal.Tables[0].AsEnumerable().ToDictionary(
dr => dr.Field<string>("ParentCategory"), // key
dr => dr.Field<int>("Id") // value
);
var dtSubCategory = dsFinal.Tables[1];
dtSubCategory.Columns.Add("ParentId", typeof(int));
foreach (var drSubCategory in dtSubCategory.AsEnumerable())
{
int categoryId;
categoryIds.TryGetValue(drSubCategory.Field<string>("ParentCategory"), out categoryId);
drSubCategory["ParentId"] = categoryId;
}

Change your relation so it's using Id and ParentId and your first solution will be working just right.
When you will update that first table and the get the autoincremented value, it will automatically update the second table via the relation. Here is an example.
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
var colParent = dt.Columns.Add("id", typeof(int));
DataTable dtChild = new DataTable();
var colChild = dtChild.Columns.Add("parentid", typeof(int));
ds.Tables.Add(dt);
ds.Tables.Add(dtChild);
ds.Relations.Add("relation1", colParent, colChild);
DataRow rowParent = dt.NewRow();
rowParent["id"] = 1;
dt.Rows.Add(rowParent);
DataRow rowChild = dtChild.NewRow();
rowChild["parentid"] = rowParent["id"];
dtChild.Rows.Add(rowChild);
// at this point, parentid from rowChild is "1".
rowParent["id"] = 10; // DataAdapter.Update simulation.
// and now parentid from rowChild has been update via the relation to "10".
When using this method, i'll usually set my column to get a temporary "id" value by setting the column as an identity column with a seed and step set to -1. This would go after the third line.
colParent.AutoIncrement = true;
colParent.AutoIncrementSeed = -1;
colParent.AutoIncrementStep = -1;
Unless you really need to have your relation on those string fields, there's no need to do any loop, computed column or anything overly complicated.
