NPoco/PetaPoco stored procedures with named strong type parameters

StoredProcedures.tt file automatically generates a C# code file with calsses and methods corresponding to your database stored procedure definitions. This is then used to simply call stored procedures within NPoco/PetaPoco and avoid magic strings and parameter type guessing. It also supports output parameters.

Stored procedures naming conventions

In order to have your stored procedure calls well structured there are particular yet simple naming conventions you should follow when creating your stored procedures:

  1. Name your stored procedures as ClassName_Method
  2. If a particular stored procedure shouldn't be parsed you should omit underscore character in its name; this will make it private from the perspective of your C# as it will only be accessible to other stored procedures but won't be parsed.
