6bee/Remote.Linq: Simply LINQ your remote resources...

Remote.Linq is a small and easy to use - yet very powerful - library to translate LINQ expression trees to strongly typed, serializable expression trees and vice versa. It provides functionality to send arbitrary LINQ queries to a remote service to be applied and executed against any enumerable or queryable data collection.

Building a LINQ interface for custom services is made a breeze by using Remote.Linq.

In contrast to re-linq, this project enables serialization and deserialization of expression trees and applying LINQ expressions to other LINQ providers e.g. linq-to-object, linq-to-entity, etc.

Remote.Linq makes it super easy to implement a service allowing LINQ queries defined on a client to be executed on a remote server.

Write operations (insert/update/delete) have to be implemented by other means if needed. InfoCarrier.Core or EfCore.Client might be interesting for such scenarios.

Check-out Remote.Linq.Samples.sln and samples folder for a number of sample use cases.

Implement a repository class to set-up server connection and expose the queryable data sets (IQueryable<>)

public class ClientDataRepository
{
    private readonly Func<Expression, DynamicObject> _dataProvider;

    public RemoteRepository(string uri)
    {
        _dataProvider = expression =>
            {
                // setup service connectivity
                using IQueryService service = CreateServerConnection(uri);
                // send expression to service and get back results
                DynamicObject result = service.ExecuteQuery(expression);
                return result;
            };
    }

    public IRemoteQueryable<Blog> Blogs => RemoteQueryable.Factory.CreateQueryable<Blog>(_dataProvider);
   
    public IRemoteQueryable<Post> Posts => RemoteQueryable.Factory.CreateQueryable<Post>(_dataProvider);
   
    public IRemoteQueryable<User> Users => RemoteQueryable.Factory.CreateQueryable<User>(_dataProvider);
    
    // where IRemoteQueryable<out T> is IQueryable<out T>
}

Use your repository to compose LINQ query and let the data be retrieved from the backend service

var repository = new ClientDataRepository("https://myserver/queryservice");

var myBlogPosts = (
    from blog in repository.Blogs
    from post in blog.Posts
    join owner in repository.Users on blog.OwnerId equals owner.Id
    where owner.login == "hi-its-me"
    select new 
    {
        post.Title,
        post.Date,
        Preview = post.Text.Substring(0, 50)
    }).ToList();

Implement the backend service to handle the client's query expression by applying it to a data source e.g. an ORM

public interface IQueryService : IDisposable
{
    DynamicObject ExecuteQuery(Expression queryExpression);
}

public class QueryService : IQueryService
{
    // any linq provider e.g. entity framework, nhibernate, ...
    private IDataProvider _datastore = new ObjectRelationalMapper();

    // you need to be able to retrieve an IQueryable by type
    private Func<Type, IQueryable> _queryableProvider = type => _datastore.GetQueryableByType(type);

    public DynamicObject ExecuteQuery(Expression queryExpression)
    {
        // `Execute` is an extension method provided by Remote.Linq
        // it applies an expression to a data source and returns the result
        return queryExpression.Execute(queryableProvider: _queryableProvider);
    }

    public void Dispose() => _datastore.Dispose();
}
IAsyncRemoteQueryable<TEntity> asyncQuery =
  RemoteQueryable.Factory.CreateAsyncQueryable<TEntity>(...);
TEntity[] result = await asyncQuery.ToArrayAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);

// where interface IAsyncRemoteQueryable<out T> is IRemoteQueryable<out T> is IQueryable<out T>
IAsyncRemoteStreamQueryable<TEntity> asyncStreamQuery =
  RemoteQueryable.Factory.CreateAsyncStreamQueryable<TEntity>(...);
await foreach (TEntity item in asyncStreamQuery.ConfigureAwait(false))
{
}

// where interface IAsyncRemoteStreamQueryable<out T> is IQueryable<out T>

See MS tutorial on async streams for more info.

Remote.Linq.Async.Queryable

Provides interoperability with Interactive Extensions (Ix.NET / System.Linq.Async.Queryable).

System.Linq.IAsyncQueryable<TEntity> asyncQuery =
  RemoteQueryable.Factory.CreateAsyncQueryable<TEntity>(...);
await foreach (TEntity item in asyncQuery.ConfigureAwait(false))
{
}
Remote.Linq.EntityFramework / Remote.Linq.EntityFrameworkCore

Remote linq extensions for Entity Framework and Entity Framework Core.

These packages are used on server side to apply queries to EFs DbContext.

The only reason to include one of these packages in a client side project is to enable utilization of query features specific to EF6 and EF Core:

Query blogs including (i.e. eager loading) posts and owners

using var repository = new RemoteRepository();
var blogs = repository.Blogs
    .Include(x => x.Posts)
    .ThenInclude(x => x.Owner)
    .ToList();

Execute query on database via EF Core

public DynamicObject ExecuteQuery(Expression queryExpression)
{
    using var dbContext = new DbContext();
    return queryExpression.ExecuteWithEntityFrameworkCore(dbContext);
}
Remote.Linq.Newtonsoft.Json

Provides Json.NET serialization settings for Remote.Linq types.

// Serialization
TValue value = ...;
JsonSerializerSettings serializerSettings = new JsonSerializerSettings().ConfigureRemoteLinq(); 
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(value, serializerSettings); 
TValue copy = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<TValue>(json, serializerSettings); 

Provides System.Text.Json serialization settings for Remote.Linq types.

// Serialization
TValue value = ...;
JsonSerializerOptions serializerOptions = new JsonSerializerOptions().ConfigureRemoteLinq();
string json = JsonSerializer.Serialize(value, serializerOptions);
TValue copy = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<TValue>(json, serializerOptions);
// Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting [WebHostBuilder]
new WebHostBuilder()
  .ConfigureServices(services => services
    .AddMvcCore()
    .AddJsonOptions(options => options.JsonSerializerOptions.ConfigureRemoteLinq()));
// Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting [WebApplicationBuilder]
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder();
builder.Services
  .AddMvcCore()
  .AddJsonOptions(options => options.JsonSerializerOptions.ConfigureRemoteLinq());
// System.Net.Http.HttpClient
TValue value = ...;
Uri uri = ...;
var serializerOptions = new JsonSerializerOptions().ConfigureRemoteLinq();
using var httpClient = new HttpClient();
await httpClient.PostAsJsonAsync(uri, value, serializerOptions);
