Using Dapper.CX Extension Methods - adamfoneil/Dapper.CX GitHub Wiki

After installing NuGet package Dapper.CX.SqlServer, add either the Dapper.CX.SqlServer.Extensions.Int or Dapper.CX.SqlServer.Extensions.Long namespace in your classes. One way to do that is to start typing a Dapper.CX method name, and pick the desired namespace from the Ctrl+dot popup.

Then you can start using all the Dapper.CX methods.

Examples

Here's a simple example using GetAsync and SaveAsync methods assuming a fictional Appointment model class and fictional GetConnection method:

using (var cn = GetConnection())
{
    var appt = await cn.GetAsync<Appointment>(id);
    
    // make your changes
    
    await cn.SaveAsync(appt);
}

The SaveAsync method performs an insert or update depending on whether the model object IsNew or not. Here's a more sophisticated example showing the GetWhereAsync method and ChangeTracker object. Learn more about tracking changes.

using (var cn = GetConnection())
{
    var appt = await cn.GetWhereAsync<Appointment>(new { clientId = 4343, date = new DateTime(2020, 3, 1) });
    var ct = new ChangeTracker<Appointment>(appt);
    
    // make your changes
    
    // with a change tracker object, only modified properties are included in update statement 
    await cn.SaveAsync(appt, ct);  
}
