在Linq中通过查询创建动态组

Question

I have a form with 4 checkbox for grouping , when I want to create LINQ dynamic query in where clause, it is very easy to use something like this :

  query = query.where(x=>x.blah == blahblah).asQueryable();

but I can't simulate this type of coding for Group by clause. I need something like this :

if(blah1==true)
    query = query.GroupBy(x=>x.Blah1).select(smthing);
if(blah2==true)
    query = query.GroupBy(x=>x.Blah2).select(smthing);
if(blah3==true)
    query = query.GroupBy(x=>x.Blah3).select(smthing);
 ....

How can I do this kind of query? some post in stackoverflow show misunderstanding code like Expression> . Please show me an easy and applicable way.

May be this is not the correct way of doing things, but using reflection does thing. Hence, all you need is to determine property name and pass it to GroupBy .

class Person
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public int Wage { get; set; }
    public int Age { get; set; }
    public override string ToString() =>
        $"Name: {Name}, Wage: {Wage}, Age: {Age}";
}

var list = new List<Person>
{
    new Person { Name = "Name1", Wage = 1, Age = 1},
    new Person { Name = "Name1", Wage = 2, Age = 2},
    new Person { Name = "Name2", Wage = 2, Age = 2},
    new Person { Name = "Name3", Wage = 2, Age = 2},
    new Person { Name = "Name3", Wage = 2, Age = 2},
    new Person { Name = "Name4", Wage = 2, Age = 2},
    new Person { Name = "Name4", Wage = 2, Age = 2}
};

var x = list.GroupBy(p => p.GetType().GetProperty("Name").GetValue(p));

foreach(var z in x)
{
    WriteLine(z.Key);
    foreach(var p in z)
    {
        WriteLine("\t" + p);
    }
}

/*
    Output:

Name1
      Name: Name1, Wage: 1, Age: 1
      Name: Name1, Wage: 2, Age: 2
Name2
      Name: Name2, Wage: 2, Age: 2
Name3
      Name: Name3, Wage: 2, Age: 2
      Name: Name3, Wage: 2, Age: 2
Name4
      Name: Name4, Wage: 2, Age: 2
      Name: Name4, Wage: 2, Age: 2
