Database Seeding
The code first approach outlined here creates and re-cretes
a database from your C# Model classes. The down side is that
each time the model is changed all the data is lost. To
re-populate the database when it is recreated you need to add
a ProjectInitializer class
to your models folder. Click on
the link and save the text file as ProjectInitializer.cs.
Make sure you change the name of the project in the namespace to match your project name.
In order to use this class, you need to modify your
global.asax and create a new ProjectInitializer when
your application starts (and if the model changes).
Change it to somethging like:-
Please make sure that your project name is used in place of
mvc4WebApplication, and the name of the
class is not important
you can spell it the british way ProjectInitialiser if you wish.
Take out the old statement shown below.
