NetDataQuery 1.0.0

NetDataQuery

NetDataQuery is an open-source library for .NET that allows dynamic queries to be defined through method names, simplifying data access without writing LINQ expressions manually.

Installation

Install the library from NuGet:

Install-Package NetDataQuery

And in your Program.cs, register the repositories:

builder.Services.AddNetDataRepositories<YourDbContext>();

How it works

Define an interface that inherits from INetDataQuery<T> and declare your query methods using GetBy..., FindBy..., ReadBy..., or QueryBy....

The library parses the method name and automatically generates the corresponding LINQ expression.

Usage Example

Assuming the class Line:

public class Line
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    public bool Active { get; set; }
    public int BrandId { get; set; }
    public Brand? Brand { get; set; }
}

public class Brand
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    public string? IconColor { get; set; }
    public bool Active { get; set; }
}

Define a repository

public interface ILineRepository : INetDataQuery<Line>
{
    Task<List<Line>> GetByActiveTrue();
    Task<List<Line>> GetByNameEquals(string name);
    Task<List<Line>> GetByNameAndActiveFalse(string name);
    Task<List<Line>> GetByBrandName(string name);
    Task<List<Line>> GetByBrandIconColorAndActiveTrueIncludeBrand(string color);
    Task<List<Line>> GetAllIncludeBrand();
    Task<Line> GetByIdEquals(int id); // Example of Task<Clase>
}

Use the repository

var activeLines = await _lineRepository.GetByActiveTrue();
var byName = await _lineRepository.GetByNameEquals("Special");
var byBrand = await _lineRepository.GetByBrandName("Toyota");
var withInclude = await _lineRepository.GetByBrandIconColorAndActiveTrueIncludeBrand("red");

Supported Conventions

Method types

• GetBy, FindBy, ReadBy, QueryBy
• GetAll, FindAll, etc.

?? Supported Conditions

You can combine conditions using And and Or:

GetByNameAndActiveTrue
GetByIdGreaterThanOrActiveFalse

Nested relationships

You can query nested properties of related entities:

GetByBrandName(string name)
GetByBrandIconColor(string color)

Includes

To include relationships, append Include{Property} at the end:

GetByBrandNameIncludeBrand
GetAllIncludeBrand
GetByActiveTrueIncludeBrand

Important: Include statements must appear at the end of the method name.

Roadmap (future)

• Support for ThenInclude
• Automatic interface and controller generation (scaffolding-style)
• Sorting (OrderBy, OrderByDesc)
• Collection queries (In, Contains)
