This case is similar to Better way to Sort a List by any property , but in this case doesn't has list in memory before execute the method '.ToList()'.
I want to sort before the database query be executed. I want to 'write' the SQL Query before his execution.
My code:
public virtual DataTablesData<TViewModel> DataTablesGetData(DataTablesParam model)
{
var paged = new DataTablesData<TViewModel>();
IQueryable<TEntity> qr;
try
{
using (var db = new EdmxMSSQLContainer())
{
List<TViewModel> list = null;
qr = db.Set<TEntity>();
int iColumn = model.Order.FirstOrDefault().Column;
var property = typeof(TEntity).GetProperty(model.Columns.ToArray()[iColumn].Data);
var param = Expression.Parameter(typeof(TEntity));
Expression final = Expression.Property(param, property);
if (property.PropertyType.IsValueType)
{
final = Expression.MakeUnary(ExpressionType.Convert, final, typeof(object));
}
var lambda = Expression.Lambda<Func<TEntity, object>>(final, param);
if (model.Order.FirstOrDefault().Dir.Equals("asc"))
{
qr = qr.OrderBy(lambda);
}
else
{
qr = qr.OrderByDescending(lambda);
}
// THIS LINE THROW EXCEPTION
// qr.ToList() execute SQL Query
list = Mapper.Map(qr.ToList(), list);
paged.recordsTotal = this.CountRecords();
paged.recordsFiltered = list.Count();
paged.data = list;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
OnError(ex);
}
return paged;
}
This line throw exception:
list = Mapper.Map(qr.ToList(), list);
Exception:
Unable to cast the type System.Int32 to type System.Object. LINQ to Entities only supports casting EDM primitive or enumeration types
I found a better way to do this. I had to do this steps:
1 - Add the package "Linq Dynamic" in project:
Install-Package System.Linq.Dynamic.Library
2 - Import the package in Class:
using System.Linq.Dynamic;
3 - Order queryable by the string name of property:
qr.OrderBy(stringPropertyName); //asc
qr.OrderBy(stringPropertyName + " descending"); //des
It work perfectly for me.
Func<IQueryable<Entity>, IOrderedQueryable<Entity>> orderBy = query => query.OrderBy(e => e.ID);
Expression<Func<Entity, bool>> fitler = e => e.Active;
public virtual IEnumerable<T> Get(Expression<Func<T, bool>> filter = null, Func<IQueryable<T>, IOrderedQueryable<T>> orderBy = null)
{
IQueryable<T> query = dbSet;
if (filter != null)
query = query.Where(filter);
if (orderBy != null)
return orderBy(query).ToList();
else
return query.ToList();
