Case in point, getting a page from a filtered list and getting the total count of the filtered list is just a walk in the park with Linq, they can all be done on one spot.
using (var session = TheMapper.GetSessionFactory().OpenSession()) using (var tx = session.BeginTransaction()) { var products = session.Query<Product>(); if (filter.ProductName != null) products = products.Where(x => x.Name.Contains(filter.ProductName)); if (filter.ProductModelName != null) products = products.Where(x => x.ProductModel.Name.Contains(filter.ProductModelName)); var result = new ProductResultDto(); result.Products = products .OrderBy(x => x.Name) .Take(filter.PageSize).Skip((filter.PageNumber - 1) * filter.PageSize) .Select(x => new ProductDto { ProductName = x.Name, ProductModelName = x.ProductModel.Name }) .ToList(); result.Count = products.Count(); return result; }//using
How it is done when writing queries directly on database instead:
create procedure GetList( @ProductName nvarchar(400), @ProductModelName nvarchar(400), @PageNumber int, @PageSize int ) as begin declare @rn int = (@PageNumber-1) * @PageSize; with a as ( select RN = row_number() over(order by p.Name), ProductName = p.Name, ProductModelName = m.Name from Production.Product p left join Production.ProductModel m on p.ProductModelID = m.ProductModelID where ( @ProductName is null or p.Name like '%' + @ProductName + '%' ) and ( @ProductModelName is null or m.Name like '%' + @ProductModelName + '%' ) ) select top (@PageSize) a.ProductName, a.ProductModelName from a where a.rn > @rn; select count(*) as cnt from Production.Product p left join Production.ProductModel m on p.ProductModelID = m.ProductModelID where ( @ProductName is null or p.Name like '%' + @ProductName + '%' ) and ( @ProductModelName is null or m.Name like '%' + @ProductModelName + '%' ); end;
The above code is not DRY, you can see the filter being repeated in two places. We can avoid wetting the query by refactoring it:
create function GetList_Func( @ProductName nvarchar(400), @ProductModelName nvarchar(400) ) returns table as return select RN = row_number() over(order by p.Name), ProductName = p.Name, ProductModelName = m.Name from Production.Product p left join Production.ProductModel m on p.ProductModelID = m.ProductModelID where ( @ProductName is null or p.Name like '%' + @ProductName + '%' ) and ( @ProductModelName is null or m.Name like '%' + @ProductModelName + '%' ); go create procedure GetList_Refactored( @ProductName nvarchar(400), @ProductModelName nvarchar(400), @PageNumber int, @PageSize int ) as begin declare @rn int = (@PageNumber-1) * @PageSize; select top (@PageSize) a.ProductName, a.ProductModelName from GetList_Func(@ProductName, @ProductModelName) a where a.rn > @rn; select count(*) as cnt from GetList_Func(@ProductName, @ProductModelName); end; go
However, it's not one-stop-shop anymore. The query is now being defined in two places.
Happy Computing! ツ
