A quick example for storing and searching documents:
// Create your POCO class public class Customer { public int Id { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public int Age { get; set; } public string[] Phones { get; set; } public bool IsActive { get; set; } } // Open database (or create if doesn't exist) using(var db = new LiteDatabase(@"MyData.db")) { // Get customer collection var col = db.GetCollection<Customer>("customers"); // Create your new customer instance var customer = new Customer { Name = "John Doe", Phones = new string[] { "8000-0000", "9000-0000" }, Age = 39, IsActive = true }; // Create unique index in Name field col.EnsureIndex(x => x.Name, true); // Insert new customer document (Id will be auto-incremented) col.Insert(customer); // Update a document inside a collection customer.Name = "Joana Doe"; col.Update(customer); // Use LINQ to query documents (with no index) var results = col.Find(x => x.Age > 20); }
Using fluent mapper and cross document reference for more complex data models
// DbRef to cross references public class Order { public ObjectId Id { get; set; } public DateTime OrderDate { get; set; } public Address ShippingAddress { get; set; } public Customer Customer { get; set; } public List<Product> Products { get; set; } } // Re-use mapper from global instance var mapper = BsonMapper.Global; // "Products" and "Customer" are from other collections (not embedded document) mapper.Entity<Order>() .DbRef(x => x.Customer, "customers") // 1 to 1/0 reference .DbRef(x => x.Products, "products") // 1 to Many reference .Field(x => x.ShippingAddress, "addr"); // Embedded sub document using(var db = new LiteDatabase("MyOrderDatafile.db")) { var orders = db.GetCollection<Order>("orders"); // When query Order, includes references var query = orders .Include(x => x.Customer) .Include(x => x.Products) // 1 to many reference .Find(x => x.OrderDate <= DateTime.Now); // Each instance of Order will load Customer/Products references foreach(var order in query) { var name = order.Customer.Name; ... } }
Change details for each release are documented in the release notes.
