I Use KendoUI Grid and I have a code like this :
IQueryable<ListStatus> liststatus = (from karfarmalist in db.PTStbLists
join eventlist in db.PTStbListEvents on karfarmalist.Id equals eventlist.SerialList
join combobase in db.GlbTbComboBases on eventlist.EventType equals combobase.GUID
where karfarmalist.TFN.Equals(tfn) && karfarmalist.GuidList == listid
select new ListStatus{
id = eventlist.Id,
eventdate = Farab.Utility.PersianDate.Georgian_jalali(eventlist.EventDate),
status = combobase.FAName
}).OrderBy(l => l.id);
Farab Call Raise an error. I use AsEnumerable method but orderby has error. How can I call that method in LINQ without error?
You can add .ToList() at the end of the query but that would cause a call to be made to the db, which will affect performance of the query. Not sure if this is what you want but you can give it a try.

I have a SQLAlchemy query that I build, such as :
query_one = User.query.filter(User.id == 1) # Note that I don't call .first() or .all() as I want the "select" instance.
I want to store this Select query in such a way that I can retrieve it by having the same query :
stored_queries = {}
stored_queries[hash(query_one)] = query_one
# ... later on:
query_two = User.query.filter(User.id == 1)
if hash(query_two) in stored_queries:
# Execute custom code because it's the same query
Of course, hash in that case does not work, but is there a SQLAlchemy method that works in the same way?
I thought of str(query_one), but that query only consider the request, without the value. I need both.
Thank you in advance.
You can compile the query to get access to the parameters, and use those as part of your key:
def query_key(query):
statement = query_one.statement.compile()
return str(statement), str(statement.params)
query_key(query_one)
('SELECT user.id, ... FROM user WHERE user.id = :id_1', "{'id_1': 1}")
See https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/14/core/selectable.html#sqlalchemy.sql.expression.TableClause.compile
I set up method to query database using WHERE IN, but the query performs opposite of how I expect.
CriteriaBuilder qb = getEntityManager().getCriteriaBuilder();
CriteriaQuery<ActivityLog> c = qb.createQuery(ActivityLog.class);
Root<ActivityLog> p = c.from( ActivityLog.class );
Predicate condition1 = qb.equal( p.get(ActivityLog_.div), div);
Collection<String> viewStatus = new ArrayList<String>();
viewStatus.add("C");
viewStatus.add("U");
viewStatus.add("D");
Predicate condition2 = qb.equal(p.get(ActivityLog_.status), p.get(ActivityLog_.status).in(viewStatus));
c.where( qb.and(condition1, condition2) );
c.orderBy( qb.desc( p.get( ActivityLog_.update_time.getName() ) ) );
TypedQuery<ActivityLog> q = getEntityManager().createQuery(c);
q.setMaxResults(15);
return q.getResultList();
The results are actually the opposite -- I get STATUS the are NOT C,U,D.
If I change the Predicate condition2 line -- I get the results that I expect??
Predicate condition2 = qb.notEqual(p.get(ActivityLog_.status), p.get(ActivityLog_.status).in(viewStatus));
Is there a bug with MySQL driver or Eclipselink? or a flaw in my thinking?
My hope is to retrieve from ActiivtyLog where divsion = div and status
IN (C,U,D)
Why are you using qb.equal(p.get(ActivityLog_.status), yourInCondition)? The in condition should return a true or false, so i don't see why you would want to check that it equals your status.
In EclipseLink you can turn Logging to Fine or Finest to see the SQL that gets generated, which makes it easier to tell how your queries might be going wrong.
What I think you might want instead is just
Predicate condition2 = p.get(ActivityLog_.status).in(viewStatus))
which can also be done as :
In<String> in = qb.in( p.get(ActivityLog_.status) );
in.value("C").value("U").value("D");
c.where( qb.and(condition1, in) );
I have 2 tables that I need to load together all the time, the both must exist together in the database. However I am wondering why Linq to Sql demands that I have to load in a collection and then do a join, I only want to join 2 single tables where a record where paramid say = 5, example...
var data = _repo.All<TheData>(); //why do I need a collection/IQueryable like this?
var _workflow = _repo.All<WorkFlow>()
.Where(x => x.WFID== paramid)
.Join(data, x => x.ID, y => y.WFID, (x, y) => new
{
data = x,
workflow = y
});
I gues then I need to do a SingleOrDefault()? If the record is not null pass it back?
I Understand the Sql query comes out correctly, is there a better way to write this?
NOTE: I need to search a table called Participants to see if the loggedonuser can actually view this record, so I guess I should leave it as this? (this is main requirement)
var participant = _repo.All<Participants>();
.Any(x=> x.ParticipantID == loggedonuser.ID); //add this to above query...
The line var data = _repo.All<TheData>(); is something like saying 'start building query against the TheData table'.
This function returns you an IQueryable which will contain a definition of the query against your database.
So this doesn't mean you load the whole TheData table data with this line!
The query will be executed the moment you do something like .Count(), .Any(), First(), Single(), or ToList(). This is called deferred execution.
If you would end your query with SingleOrDefault() this will create a sql query that joins the two tables, add the filter and select the top most record or null(or throw an error if there are more!).
You could also use Linq instead of query extension methods.
It would look like:
var data = _repo.All<TheData>();
var _workflow = from w in _repo.All<WorkFlow>()
join t in _repo.All<TheData> on w.Id equals t.WFID
where x.WIFD = paramid
select new
{
data = t,
workflow = x
});
I've stumbled upon a very strange LINQ to SQL behaviour / bug, that I just can't understand.
Let's take the following tables as an example: Customers -> Orders -> Details.
Each table is a subtable of the previous table, with a regular Primary-Foreign key relationship (1 to many).
If I execute the follow query:
var q = from c in context.Customers
select (c.Orders.FirstOrDefault() ?? new Order()).Details.Count();
Then I get an exception: Could not format node 'Value' for execution as SQL.
But the following queries do not throw an exception:
var q = from c in context.Customers
select (c.Orders.FirstOrDefault() ?? new Order()).OrderDateTime;
var q = from c in context.Customers
select (new Order()).Details.Count();
If I change my primary query as follows, I don't get an exception:
var q = from r in context.Customers.ToList()
select (c.Orders.FirstOrDefault() ?? new Order()).Details.Count();
Now I could understand that the last query works, because of the following logic:
Since there is no mapping of "new Order()" to SQL (I'm guessing here), I need to work on a local list instead.
But what I can't understand is why do the other two queries work?!?
I could potentially accept working with the "local" version of context.Customers.ToList(), but how to speed up the query?
For instance in the last query example, I'm pretty sure that each select will cause a new SQL query to be executed to retrieve the Orders. Now I could avoid lazy loading by using DataLoadOptions, but then I would be retrieving thousands of Order rows for no reason what so ever (I only need the first row)...
If I could execute the entire query in one SQL statement as I would like (my first query example), then the SQL engine itself would be smart enough to only retrieve one Order row for each Customer...
Is there perhaps a way to rewrite my original query in such a way that it will work as intended and be executed in one swoop by the SQL server?
EDIT:
(longer answer for Arturo)
The queries I provided are purely for example purposes. I know they are pointless in their own right, I just wanted to show a simplistic example.
The reason your example works is because you have avoided using "new Order()" all together. If I slightly modify your query to still use it, then I still get an exception:
var results = from e in (from c in db.Customers
select new { c.CustomerID, FirstOrder = c.Orders.FirstOrDefault() })
select new { e.CustomerID, Count = (e.FirstOrder != null ? e.FirstOrder : new Order()).Details().Count() }
Although this time the exception is slightly different - Could not format node 'ClientQuery' for execution as SQL.
If I use the ?? syntax instead of (x ? y : z) in that query, I get the same exception as I originaly got.
In my real-life query I don't need Count(), I need to select a couple of properties from the last table (which in my previous examples would be Details). Essentially I need to merge values of all the rows in each table. Inorder to give a more hefty example I'll first have to restate my tabels:
Models -> ModelCategoryVariations <- CategoryVariations -> CategoryVariationItems -> ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmounts -> ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmountValueChanges
The -> sign represents a 1 -> many relationship. Do notice that there is one sign that is the other way round...
My real query would go something like this:
var q = from m in context.Models
from mcv in m.ModelCategoryVariations
... // select some more tables
select new
{
ModelId = m.Id,
ModelName = m.Name,
CategoryVariationName = mcv.CategoryVariation.Name,
..., // values from other tables
Categories = (from cvi in mcv.CategoryVariation.CategoryVariationItems
let mmcvia = cvi.ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmounts.SingleOrDefault(mmcvia2 => mmcvia2.ModelModuleId == m.ModelModuleId) ?? new ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmount()
select new
{
cvi.Id,
Amount = (mmcvia.ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmountValueChanges.FirstOrDefault() ?? new ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmountValueChange()).Amount
... // select some more properties
}
}
This query blows up at the line let mmcvia =.
If I recall correctly, by using let mmcvia = new ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmount(), the query would blow up at the next ?? operand, which is at Amount =.
If I start the query with from m in context.Models.ToList() then everything works...
Why are you looking into only the individual count without selecting anything related to the customer.
You can do the following.
var results = from e in
(from c in db.Customers
select new { c.CustomerID, FirstOrder = c.Orders.FirstOrDefault() })
select new { e.CustomerID, DetailCount = e.FirstOrder != null ? e.FirstOrder.Details.Count() : 0 };
EDIT:
OK, I think you are over complicating your query.
The problem is that you are using the new WhateverObject() in your query, T-SQL doesnt know anyting about that; T-SQL knows about records in your hard drive, your are throwing something that doesn't exist. Only C# knows about that. DON'T USE new IN YOUR QUERIES OTHER THAN IN THE OUTER MOST SELECT STATEMENT because that is what C# will receive, and C# knows about creating new instances of objects.
Of course is going to work if you use ToList() method, but performance is affected because now you have your application host and sql server working together to give you the results and it might take many calls to your database instead of one.
Try this instead:
Categories = (from cvi in mcv.CategoryVariation.CategoryVariationItems
let mmcvia =
cvi.ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmounts.SingleOrDefault(
mmcvia2 => mmcvia2.ModelModuleId == m.ModelModuleId)
select new
{
cvi.Id,
Amount = mmcvia != null ?
(mmcvia.ModelModuleCategoryVariationItemAmountValueChanges.Select(
x => x.Amount).FirstOrDefault() : 0
... // select some more properties
}
Using the Select() method allows you to get the first Amount or its default value. I used "0" as an example only, I dont know what is your default value for Amount.
I had the following Linq code:
var allRequests = model.GetAllRequests();
var unsatisifedRequests = (from request in allRequests
where request.Satisfied == false
select request)
.OrderBy(r => r.RequestedOn)
.GroupBy(r => r.RequestedCountryId);
After which I then did a foreach over unsatifiedRequests building a new TOARequestListSummary object for each. This meant if I "returned" 4 items from the query, it would make 4 calls to the DB, once per loop of the foreach to grab the individual rows.
This seems to be the wrong way to use Linq, so I tries to convert this query to one which used projections to return the TOARequestListSummary objects directly and I came up with:
var summaries = (from request in allRequests
where request.Satisfied == false
group request by request.RequestedCountryId into requestGroups
select new TOARequestListSummary
{
CountryName = requestGroups.First().RequestedCountry.Description,
RequestCount = requestGroups.Count(),
FirstRequested = requestGroups.First().RequestedOn
});
But when I run this, I get the following exception:
Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS.
I have got as far as knowing that the Linq equivalent to EXISTS is Contains, but I have no idea how to indroduce this into the query.
This should work for you:
var summaries = (from request in allRequests
where request.Satisfied == false
group request by request.RequestedCountry into g
select new TOARequestListSummary
{
CountryName = g.Key.Description,
RequestCount = g.Count(),
FirstRequested = g.Min(i => i.RequestedOn)
});
In your original version of this query (the second one you posted), your group's key was the RequestedCountryId. Though this will technically be grouping on that, you actually want to use the associated object. This way you'll have easy access to the needed properties and won't need to worry about grabbing the first item.
Sorry, this is an answer, rather than an additional comment to Ryan's answer, but it is too long to fit...
This gets very strange. In LinqPad the following works a treat:
from request in TOARequests
where request.Satisfied == false
&& request.Active == true
orderby request.RequestedOn
group request by request.RequestedCountry into g
select new
{
CountryName = g.Key.Description,
RequestCount = g.Count(),
FirstRequested = g.First().RequestedOn
}
But the following throws the same translation exception in C#
var summaries = (from request in context.Repository<TOARequest>()
where request.Satisfied == false
&& request.Active == true
orderby request.RequestedOn
group request by request.RequestedCountry into g
select new
{
CountryName = g.Key.Description,
RequestCount = g.Count(),
FirstRequested = g.First().RequestedOn
}).ToList();
The only difference I can see if the ToList(), but even without that when I try to enumerate the list, it throws the exception.
