Linq To Entities中的动态排序

换了工作有一个月了，一样的工作、一样的代码、一样的体力活仍就……

Linq To Entityes 也是不新玩意了，近半年来也一直与之打交道，但一直也没对其深究过。今天新加的功能要对所有列支持排序，这也不是什么高难度的工作了，对与TSQL来说是写过几百遍了，但在Linq To Enitities中有点小恶心。

Linq To Entityes中的对象是个Queryable类型的，Queryable.OrderBy()方法的参数是一个Lamdba

source.OrderBy(t=>t.ID).Skip(0).Take(10)

表达式。第一个想到的便是用字段名反射出类型，如

source.OrderBy(t=>t.GetType().GetField(“ID”)).Skip(0).Take(10);

而运行时会报“无法识别GetField()方法”。

Linq实际上是一个表达式树，是基于语言级别的代码，OrderBy中需要一个表达式树。

在老外的网站上找到了如下代码，豁然开朗

        public static IOrderedQueryable<T> OrderBy<T>(this IQueryable<T> source, string property)

        { 

            return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "OrderBy"); 

        }

        public static IOrderedQueryable<T> OrderByDescending<T>(this IQueryable<T> source, string property)

        { 

            return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "OrderByDescending"); 

        }

        public static IOrderedQueryable<T> ThenBy<T>(this IOrderedQueryable<T> source, string property)

        {

            return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "ThenBy"); 

        }

        public static IOrderedQueryable<T> ThenByDescending<T>(this IOrderedQueryable<T> source, string property)

        { 

            return ApplyOrder<T>(source, property, "ThenByDescending"); 

        }

        static IOrderedQueryable<T> ApplyOrder<T>(IQueryable<T> source, string property, string methodName)

        {

            string[] props = property.Split('.');

            Type type = typeof(T); ParameterExpression arg = Expression.Parameter(type, "x");

            Expression expr = arg; foreach (string prop in props)

            { 

                // use reflection (not ComponentModel) to mirror LINQ 

                PropertyInfo pi = type.GetProperty(prop); expr = Expression.Property(expr, pi); type = pi.PropertyType;

            } 

            Type delegateType = typeof(Func<,>).MakeGenericType(typeof(T), type); 

            LambdaExpression lambda = Expression.Lambda(delegateType, expr, arg); 

            object result = typeof(Queryable).GetMethods().Single(method => method.Name == methodName 

                            && method.IsGenericMethodDefinition 

                            && method.GetGenericArguments().Length == 2 

                            && method.GetParameters().Length == 2)

                            .MakeGenericMethod(typeof(T), type)

                            .Invoke(null, new object[] { source, lambda }); 

            return (IOrderedQueryable<T>)result;

        }

上面的代码满足所有的排序功能了，我的项目中只需要对单列排序，所以对代码做了简化

        /// <summary>

        /// 

        /// </summary>

        /// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>

        /// <param name="source"></param>

        /// <param name="property">排序字段</param>

        /// <param name="isAscdening"></param>

        /// <returns></returns>

        static IOrderedQueryable<T> ApplyOrder<T>(IQueryable<T> source, string property, bool isAscdening)

        {

            Type type = typeof(T);

            ParameterExpression arg = Expression.Parameter(type, "x");

            Expression expr = arg;

            PropertyInfo pi = type.GetProperty(property);

            expr = Expression.Property(expr, pi);

            type = pi.PropertyType;

            Type delegateType = typeof(Func<,>).MakeGenericType(typeof(T), type);

            LambdaExpression lambda = Expression.Lambda(delegateType, expr, arg);

            object result;

            if (true == isAscdening)

            {

                result = typeof(Queryable).GetMethods().

                    Single(method => method.Name == "OrderBy" && method.IsGenericMethodDefinition

                        && method.GetGenericArguments().Length == 2 && method.GetParameters().Length == 2).

                    MakeGenericMethod(typeof(T), type)

                    .Invoke(null, new object[] { source, lambda });

            }

            else

            {

                result = typeof(Queryable).GetMethods().

                    Single(method => method.Name == "OrderByDescending" && method.IsGenericMethodDefinition

                        && method.GetGenericArguments().Length == 2 && method.GetParameters().Length == 2).

                    MakeGenericMethod(typeof(T), type)

                    .Invoke(null, new object[] { source, lambda });

            }

            return (IOrderedQueryable<T>)result;

        } 

还可以将方法做Queryable的扩展方法，使用起来会更方便

根据列名动态生成查询

        static IQueryable<T> MakeQuery<T>(IQueryable<T> source, string colName, string colValue)
        { 
           Type theType = typeof(T);
            //创建一个参数c
            ParameterExpression param = Expression.Parameter(typeof(T), "c");
            //c.City=="London"
            Expression left = Expression.Property(param,typeof(T).GetProperty(colName));
            Expression right = Expression.Constant(colValue);
            Expression filter = Expression.Equal(left, right);

            Expression pred = Expression.Lambda(filter, param);
            //Where(c=>c.City=="London")
            Expression expr = Expression.Call(typeof(Queryable), "Where",
                new Type[] { typeof(T) }, 
                Expression.Constant(source), pred);
            //生成动态查询
            IQueryable<T> query = source.AsQueryable()
                .Provider.CreateQuery<T>(expr);
            return query;
        }
