Dapper.NET and IQueryable

Question

Is there a plan to make Dapper.net compatible with IQueryable interfaces? If not, what\'s the workaround to use Dapper with \"Expression Trees\" filters?

Answer 1

You can get IQueryable from IEnumerable using the built-in extension method AsQueryable in System.Linq namespace

public IQueryable<Order> GetOrdersAsQuerable()
{
    IEnumerable<Order> qry= GetOrders(); //using Query<T>
    //use the built-in extension method  AsQueryable in  System.Linq namespace
    return qry.AsQueryable();            
}

Answer 2

No, there are no plans to do this. It is far far outside what dapper tries to do. So far that I would say it is antithetical. Dapper core tries to be the friend to those who love their SQL.
