I was trying to create a generic method, which can read the parameters name and value from a class at Runtime and create parameter collection for Dapper query execution. Realize
As I can understand that this requirement is not supported out of the box and I may need to code the specific helper. I have resolved it using a custom base abstract class TypeMap
, which can be extended by all kinds of providers, to implement the API, which are not out of he box possible using the Dapper, I am pasting my implementation related to SQL-Server, similar can be done for other ADO.Net compliant providers:
