如何在c# LINQ中执行左外连接到对象而不使用join-on-equal -into子句?有办法用where子句来实现吗? 正确的问题: 内连接很简单,我有一个这样的解决方案

List<JoinPair> innerFinal = (from l in lefts from r in rights where l.Key == r.Key
                             select new JoinPair { LeftId = l.Id, RightId = r.Id})

但是对于左外连接,我需要一个解决方案。我的是这样的,但它不工作

List< JoinPair> leftFinal = (from l in lefts from r in rights
                             select new JoinPair { 
                                            LeftId = l.Id, 
                                            RightId = ((l.Key==r.Key) ? r.Id : 0
                                        })

其中JoinPair是一个类:

public class JoinPair { long leftId; long rightId; }

概述:在这个代码片段中,我演示了如何按ID分组,其中Table1和Table2具有一对多关系。我集中在 Id, Field1和Field2。如果需要第三次查找表,并且需要左连接关系,那么子查询是有用的。 我展示了一个左连接分组和一个子查询linq。结果是等价的。

class MyView
{
public integer Id {get,set};
    public String Field1  {get;set;}
public String Field2 {get;set;}
    public String SubQueryName {get;set;}                           
}

IList<MyView> list = await (from ci in _dbContext.Table1
                                               join cii in _dbContext.Table2
                                                   on ci.Id equals cii.Id

                                               where ci.Field1 == criterion
                                               group new
                                               {
                                                   ci.Id
                                               } by new { ci.Id, cii.Field1, ci.Field2}

                                           into pg
                                               select new MyView
                                               {
                                                   Id = pg.Key.Id,
                                                   Field1 = pg.Key.Field1,
                                                   Field2 = pg.Key.Field2,
                                                   SubQueryName=
                                                   (from chv in _dbContext.Table3 where chv.Id==pg.Key.Id select chv.Field1).FirstOrDefault()
                                               }).ToListAsync<MyView>();


 Compared to using a Left Join and Group new

IList<MyView> list = await (from ci in _dbContext.Table1
                                               join cii in _dbContext.Table2
                                                   on ci.Id equals cii.Id

                       join chv in _dbContext.Table3
                                                  on cii.Id equals chv.Id into lf_chv
                                                from chv in lf_chv.DefaultIfEmpty()

                                               where ci.Field1 == criterion
                                               group new
                                               {
                                                   ci.Id
                                               } by new { ci.Id, cii.Field1, ci.Field2, chv.FieldValue}

                                           into pg
                                               select new MyView
                                               {
                                                   Id = pg.Key.Id,
                                                   Field1 = pg.Key.Field1,
                                                   Field2 = pg.Key.Field2,
                                                   SubQueryName=pg.Key.FieldValue
                                               }).ToListAsync<MyView>();

其他回答

如果使用数据库驱动的LINQ提供程序,则可以这样编写可读性明显更好的左外连接:

from c in categories 
from p in products.Where(c == p.Category).DefaultIfEmpty()

如果省略DefaultIfEmpty(),则有一个内部连接。

拿一个公认的答案来说:

  from c in categories
    join p in products on c equals p.Category into ps
    from p in ps.DefaultIfEmpty()

这个语法非常混乱,当你想要左连接MULTIPLE表时,它是如何工作的并不清楚。

请注意 应该注意的是,Repo.whatever.Where(condition). defaultifempty()中的from alias与外部应用/左连接-lateral相同,任何(像样的)数据库优化器都完全能够将其转换为左连接,只要您不引入每行值(也就是实际的外部应用)。不要在Linq-2-Objects中这样做(因为当你使用Linq-to-Objects时没有DB-optimizer)。

详细的例子

var query2 = (
    from users in Repo.T_User
    from mappings in Repo.T_User_Group
         .Where(mapping => mapping.USRGRP_USR == users.USR_ID)
         .DefaultIfEmpty() // <== makes join left join
    from groups in Repo.T_Group
         .Where(gruppe => gruppe.GRP_ID == mappings.USRGRP_GRP)
         .DefaultIfEmpty() // <== makes join left join

    // where users.USR_Name.Contains(keyword)
    // || mappings.USRGRP_USR.Equals(666)  
    // || mappings.USRGRP_USR == 666 
    // || groups.Name.Contains(keyword)

    select new
    {
         UserId = users.USR_ID
        ,UserName = users.USR_User
        ,UserGroupId = groups.ID
        ,GroupName = groups.Name
    }

);


var xy = (query2).ToList();

当与LINQ 2 SQL一起使用时,它将很好地翻译为以下非常清晰的SQL查询:

SELECT 
     users.USR_ID AS UserId 
    ,users.USR_User AS UserName 
    ,groups.ID AS UserGroupId 
    ,groups.Name AS GroupName 
FROM T_User AS users

LEFT JOIN T_User_Group AS mappings
   ON mappings.USRGRP_USR = users.USR_ID

LEFT JOIN T_Group AS groups
    ON groups.GRP_ID == mappings.USRGRP_GRP

编辑:

参见" 将SQL Server查询转换为Linq查询 对于一个更复杂的例子。

此外,如果你在LINQ -2- objects(而不是LINQ -2-SQL)中这样做,你应该用老式的方式来做(因为LINQ to SQL正确地将此转换为连接操作,但在对象上,这种方法强制完全扫描,并且不利用索引搜索,无论如何…):

    var query2 = (
    from users in Repo.T_Benutzer
    join mappings in Repo.T_Benutzer_Benutzergruppen on mappings.BEBG_BE equals users.BE_ID into tmpMapp
    join groups in Repo.T_Benutzergruppen on groups.ID equals mappings.BEBG_BG into tmpGroups
    from mappings in tmpMapp.DefaultIfEmpty()
    from groups in tmpGroups.DefaultIfEmpty()
    select new
    {
         UserId = users.BE_ID
        ,UserName = users.BE_User
        ,UserGroupId = mappings.BEBG_BG
        ,GroupName = groups.Name
    }

);

简单的方法是使用Let关键字。这对我很有用。

from AItem in Db.A
Let BItem = Db.B.Where(x => x.id == AItem.id ).FirstOrDefault() 
Where SomeCondition
Select new YourViewModel
{
    X1 = AItem.a,
    X2 = AItem.b,
    X3 = BItem.c
}

这是一个模拟左连接。如果B表中的每一项与A表中的每一项都不匹配,BItem返回null

这是我使用的LeftJoin实现。注意,resultSelector表达式接受2个参数:来自连接两端的一个实例。在我看到的大多数其他实现中,结果选择器只接受一个参数,这是一个具有左/右或外部/内部属性的“连接模型”。我更喜欢这个实现,因为它具有与内置Join方法相同的方法签名。它也适用于IQueryables和EF。

 var results = DbContext.Categories
      .LeftJoin(
            DbContext.Products, c => c.Id, p => p.CategoryId,
            (c, p) => new { Category = c, ProductName = p == null ? "(No Products)" : p.ProductName })
      .ToList();

public static class QueryableExtensions
{
    public static IQueryable<TResult> LeftJoin<TOuter, TInner, TKey, TResult>(
           this IQueryable<TOuter> outer, 
           IEnumerable<TInner> inner, Expression<Func<TOuter, TKey>> outerKeySelector, 
           Expression<Func<TInner, TKey>> innerKeySelector, 
           Expression<Func<TOuter, TInner, TResult>> resultSelector)
    {
        var query = outer
            .GroupJoin(inner, outerKeySelector, innerKeySelector, (o, i) => new { o, i })
            .SelectMany(o => o.i.DefaultIfEmpty(), (x, i) => new { x.o, i });
        return ApplySelector(query, x => x.o, x => x.i, resultSelector);
    }

    private static IQueryable<TResult> ApplySelector<TSource, TOuter, TInner, TResult>(
        IQueryable<TSource> source,
        Expression<Func<TSource, TOuter>> outerProperty,
        Expression<Func<TSource, TInner>> innerProperty,
        Expression<Func<TOuter, TInner, TResult>> resultSelector)
    {
        var p = Expression.Parameter(typeof(TSource), $"param_{Guid.NewGuid()}".Replace("-", string.Empty));
        Expression body = resultSelector?.Body
            .ReplaceParameter(resultSelector.Parameters[0], outerProperty.Body.ReplaceParameter(outerProperty.Parameters[0], p))
            .ReplaceParameter(resultSelector.Parameters[1], innerProperty.Body.ReplaceParameter(innerProperty.Parameters[0], p));
        var selector = Expression.Lambda<Func<TSource, TResult>>(body, p);
        return source.Select(selector);
    }
}

public static class ExpressionExtensions
{
    public static Expression ReplaceParameter(this Expression source, ParameterExpression toReplace, Expression newExpression)
        => new ReplaceParameterExpressionVisitor(toReplace, newExpression).Visit(source);
}

public class ReplaceParameterExpressionVisitor : ExpressionVisitor
{
    public ReplaceParameterExpressionVisitor(ParameterExpression toReplace, Expression replacement)
    {
        this.ToReplace = toReplace;
        this.Replacement = replacement;
    }

    public ParameterExpression ToReplace { get; }
    public Expression Replacement { get; }
    protected override Expression VisitParameter(ParameterExpression node)
        => (node == ToReplace) ? Replacement : base.VisitParameter(node);
}

我想补充的是,如果您获得MoreLinq扩展,现在支持同质和异构左连接

http://morelinq.github.io/2.8/ref/api/html/Overload_MoreLinq_MoreEnumerable_LeftJoin.htm

例子:

//Pretend a ClientCompany object and an Employee object both have a ClientCompanyID key on them

return DataContext.ClientCompany
    .LeftJoin(DataContext.Employees,                         //Table being joined
        company => company.ClientCompanyID,                  //First key
        employee => employee.ClientCompanyID,                //Second Key
        company => new {company, employee = (Employee)null}, //Result selector when there isn't a match
        (company, employee) => new { company, employee });   //Result selector when there is a match

编辑:

回想起来,这可能会起作用,但它将IQueryable转换为IEnumerable,因为morelinq不会将查询转换为SQL。

您可以使用如下所述的GroupJoin: https://stackoverflow.com/a/24273804/4251433

这将确保它仍然是一个IQueryable,以防您以后需要对它进行进一步的逻辑操作。

这是一种SQL语法,与用于内连接和左外连接的LINQ语法相比。 左外连接:

http://www.ozkary.com/2011/07/linq-to-entity-inner-and-left-joins.html

下面的示例在产品和类别之间进行组连接。这本质上是左连接。即使类别表为空,into表达式也会返回数据。要访问类别表的属性,现在必须通过在catList.DefaultIfEmpty()语句中添加from cl从可枚举结果中进行选择。
