How to call Stored Procedure in Entity Framework 6 (Code-First)?

Question

I am very new to Entity Framework 6 and I want to implement stored procedures in my project. I have a stored procedure as follows:

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ins

You can now also use a convention I created which enables invoking stored procedures (including stored procedures returning multiple resultsets), TVFs and scalar UDFs natively from EF.

Until Entity Framework 6.1 was released store functions (i.e. Table Valued Functions and Stored Procedures) could be used in EF only when doing Database First. There were some workarounds which made it possible to invoke store functions in Code First apps but you still could not use TVFs in Linq queries which was one of the biggest limitations. In EF 6.1 the mapping API was made public which (along with some additional tweaks) made it possible to use store functions in your Code First apps.

I pushed quite hard for the past two weeks and here it is – the beta version of the convention that enables using store functions (i.e. stored procedures, table valued functions etc.) in applications that use Code First approach and Entity Framework 6.1.1 (or newer). I am more than happy with the fixes and new features that are included in this release.
