How to map an identity column, that has a different name, with Dapper?

Question

I have a database with id columns like BookId, AuthorId, etc. My code files, however, just have an Id property. I\'m attempting to convert parts of the program that use NH

Answer 1

By design, dapper does not have a mapping layer. One step down that road, and before we know what has happened all of a sudden we'll be drowning in configuration files. So: two options:

• add an alias in the SQL
• add a shim in the C#

so either (sql):

select BookId as [Id], Name from Books

or (C#):

private int BookId { get { return Id; } set { Id = value; } } // just for dapper
