BccCode.Linq

This is an implementation for Linq for BCC API requests on client and server side.

Getting started

1. Add nuget package BccCode.Linq to a .NET project
2. See the usage examples below.

Usage on Client side

Queryable usage

When you implement the IApiClient interface into your API client class, you are able to run linq queries against it like this:

using BccCode.Linq;

IApiClient client = ...;

var persons = from person in client.Persons
              where person.Country == "NO"  // Note: Equals(person.Country, "NO") works, too
              select new
              {
                  person.Age,
                  person.Country
              };

foreach(var person in persons)
{
    // Here we interate through the query result getting
    // by default per API request 100 rows/persons.
}

Usage on Server side

Filter usage

As an input param it takes a json string in directus filter format and applies the filter on a DbSet.

    var filter = new Filter(jsonFilter); // jsonFilter is a json string representation in a Directus Filter format

    var coll = await _dbContext.Collections
        .ApplyRuleFilter(filter)
        .ToListAsync();
