How do I insert a C# object in postgres

Question

I have a legacy code which I'm trying to change. This legacy code stores and retrieves data from local storage. I'm trying to change it to save data, specifically c# classes, in a postgres database. The way the legacy code stores data is this:

FileSerializer.Serialize<T>(filename, instance);

I know how to INSERT INTO a serializable java object in postgres but I can't find a tutorial on how to do it with a c# object.

Thanks for your time!

Answer 1

I ended up using Dapper as it supports ORM and postgres.

It's simple with NEntityDb . You can find samples of how to insert objects here .

using (DbInstance dbInstance = new DbInstance()) 
{    
    int rowsAffected = dbInstance.NonQueryOf<Customer>(new Customer
    {
        FirstName = "Clair",
        LastName = "Guiet",
        TaxCode = "3720045188",
        Email = "cguiet@gov.uk",
        BirthDate = new DateTime(1980, 4, 15),
        Points = 10
    })
    .Insert()
    .RowsAffected;
}
