Configuration Schema

The configuration serves two purposes: configurate NHibernate and configure the facility for the environment it is running it.

Configuration Schema

<facilities>
  <facility id="nhibernate" isWeb="true|false" customStore="typename for a class that implements ISessionStore">
    <factory id="nhibernate.factory">
      <settings>
        <item key="nhibernate config key 1">value</item>
        <item key="nhibernate config key 2">value</item>
      </settings>
      <resources>
        <resource name="hbm.xml file location" />
        <resource assembly="assembly name" name="hbm.xml file name" />
      </resources>
      <assemblies>
        <assembly>assembly name</assembly>
      </assemblies>
    </factory>
  </facility>
</facilities>

You can register more than one factory if you are accessing more than one database. In this case, you must provide an alias for the factory:

<facilities>
  <facility id="nhibernate">
    <factory id="nhibernate.factory">
      ...
    </factory>
    
    <factory id="nhibernate.factory" alias="oracle2">
      ...
    </factory>
  </facility>
</facilities>

The alias is used to obtain an ISession instance through ISessionManager. More on that below.

The attribute isWeb is allows the facility to switch the implementations of ISessionStore. You can provide your own implementation using the attribute customStore.

Configuration Sample

<facilities>
  <facility id="nhibernate">
    <factory id="nhibernate.factory">
      <settings>
        <item key="hibernate.connection.provider">
          NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider
        </item>
        <item key="hibernate.connection.driver_class">
          NHibernate.Driver.MySqlDataDriver
        </item>
        <item key="hibernate.connection.connection_string">
          Database=minddump;Data Source=localhost
        </item>
        <item key="hibernate.dialect">
          NHibernate.Dialect.MySQLDialect
        </item>
      </settings>
      <resources>
        <resource name="..\bin\Author.hbm.xml" />
        <resource name="..\bin\Blog.hbm.xml" />
        <resource name="..\bin\Post.hbm.xml" />
      </resources>
    </factory>
  </facility>
</facilities>
