eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework.MongoDb 10.2.0

eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework

The Entity Framework Core implementation of eQuantic.Core.Data. You code against the provider-agnostic IRepository<TEntity, TKey> / IUnitOfWork contracts; this package supplies the EF Core engine for SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB and Azure Cosmos DB.

// A repository over any IEntity<TKey>, obtained from your DbContext-backed unit of work:
var repo = unitOfWork.GetAsyncRepository<OrderData, Guid>();

// Query typed and fluent — one QueryOptions, no magic strings:
var page = await repo.GetPagedAsync(
    PageRequest.Of(pageIndex: 1, pageSize: 20),
    new QueryOptions<OrderData>()
        .Where(o => o.Total, FilterOperator.GreaterThan, 100m)
        .And(o => o.Customer.Name, FilterOperator.Contains, term)
        .OrderByDescending(o => o.CreatedAt)
        .Include(nameof(OrderData.Customer))
        .NoTracking());

// page is a PagedResult<OrderData>: Items + TotalCount + PageIndex/PageSize/PageCount + Has*Page

Why

The Repository pattern keeps your domain ignorant of the persistence engine — you code against IRepository<TEntity, TKey> and can swap SQL Server for PostgreSQL, MongoDB or Cosmos DB without touching a line of domain code. What usually rots is the query surface: a sprawl of GetPaged/GetFiltered overloads and Action<Configuration> callbacks, with filters passed as magic strings.

On the eQuantic.Core.Data v5 contracts, this provider collapses that into one QueryOptions<TEntity> per read — authored typed and fluent, checked at compile time, and translated to EF Core server-side.

Getting started

Install the provider for your database — pick the major that matches your runtime (see Versioning below):

dotnet add package eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework.SqlServer --version 8.*

Give your entities a key via IEntity<TKey>, keep your usual DbContext, and derive the provider's unit of work:

using eQuantic.Core.Data.Repository;
using eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework.SqlServer.Repository;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;

public class OrderData : IEntity<Guid>
{
    public Guid Id { get; set; }
    public decimal Total { get; set; }
    public Guid GetKey() => Id;
    public void SetKey(Guid key) => Id = key;
}

public class AppDbContext(DbContextOptions<AppDbContext> options) : DbContext(options)
{
    public DbSet<OrderData> Orders => Set<OrderData>();
}

public interface IAppUnitOfWork : IQueryableUnitOfWork { }

public class AppUnitOfWork(IServiceProvider sp, AppDbContext ctx)
    : UnitOfWork<AppDbContext>(sp, ctx), IAppUnitOfWork;

Register the context and repositories — AddRelationalRepositories for the SQL providers, AddQueryableRepositories for the document providers (MongoDB, Cosmos DB):

services.AddDbContext<AppDbContext>(o => o.UseSqlServer(connectionString));
services.AddRelationalRepositories<IAppUnitOfWork, AppUnitOfWork>();

Then inject IAppUnitOfWork, ask it for a repository, and query with a QueryOptions (the snippet above). The full slice — specifications, custom repositories, a domain service — is in the walkthrough.

Swap the suffix (PostgreSql, MySql, MongoDb, CosmosDb) and the UseXxx call to target another database.

What this package gives you

eQuantic.Core.Data defines the contracts — IRepository, IUnitOfWork, QueryOptions, PageRequest, PagedResult, specifications — with the persistence engine kept out of the type signatures (IRepository<TEntity, TKey>, not IRepository<TUnitOfWork, TEntity, TKey>).

This package is the Entity Framework Core implementation of those contracts. It translates a single QueryOptions<TEntity> into an EF IQueryable — applying, in order, custom before hooks, the specification and predicate filter, eager Includes, sortings (server-side / EF-translatable), AsNoTracking, IgnoreQueryFilters, query tags and custom after hooks — and returns PagedResult<T> from paged reads. The relational providers also carry a parameterized raw-SQL executor (functions and stored procedures, always via DbParameter).

How you query

QueryOptions<TEntity> mirrors the eQuantic.Linq query builders, so filters read like code and fail at compile time — not at runtime:

new QueryOptions<OrderData>()
    .Where(o => o.Total, FilterOperator.GreaterThanOrEqual, 100m)   // typed member selector
    .And(o => o.Status, FilterOperator.Equal, OrderStatus.Paid)     // clauses fold left to right:
    .Or(o => o.Customer.IsVip, FilterOperator.Equal, true)          //   (total>=100 AND paid) OR vip
    .OrderByDescending(o => o.CreatedAt)
    .ThenBy("customer.name")                                        // string path for dynamic columns
    .Include(nameof(OrderData.Customer))
    .NoTracking();

You reach for whichever filter form fits — member selector, string path, ISpecification<T>, Expression<Func<T,bool>>, a serialized ExpressionModel<T>, or an eQuantic.Linq.Web query string — all end up as one predicate the provider translates. The full query-string grammar is documented in the eQuantic.Linq reference.

Providers

The three relational providers share eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework.Relational; the document providers (MongoDb, CosmosDb) are non-relational and build directly on the base eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework. Register your DbContext-backed unit of work and the open-generic repositories through AddRelationalRepositories<TUnitOfWorkInterface, TUnitOfWorkImpl>() (relational) or the base AddQueryableRepositories<TUnitOfWork>() (document) — the full wiring is in the walkthrough.

Azure Cosmos DB: scope a read to one logical partition with the Cosmos-specific WithPartitionKey extension so it doesn't fan out into a cross-partition scan:

new QueryOptions<OrderData>()
    .WithPartitionKey(tenantId)
    .Where(o => o.Status, FilterOperator.Equal, OrderStatus.Paid);

Cosmos has no server-side set-based delete/update (ExecuteDelete/ExecuteUpdate are relational-only), so DeleteMany/UpdateMany load the matching documents and modify them through the context.

Versioning

Pick the package major that matches your runtime — this library targets .NET 8 and .NET 10, and each runtime is published as its own package major so the EF Core lines never mix:

The shared multi-framework assemblies (the referenceable base eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework and eQuantic.Core.Data.EntityFramework.Relational) stay in the 4.x line on purpose — a neutral lane that must not be read as a .NET version. You normally consume only the provider package for your runtime (8.x / 10.x), which pulls the right shared assemblies transitively.
