AsExpandable

Csharp.svg
Expression<Func<User, bool>> expression = x => x.Name.EndsWith("2");

context.Users.Where(expression); // works fine !

// as x.Users is not a IQueryable, Any cannot take an Expression but a Func
// so we need to use Compile to get Func from Expression
context.Groups.Where(x => x.Users.Where(expression.Compile())); // Entity Framework will throw an exception

// solution: use AsExpandable
context.Groups.AsExpandable().Where(x => x.Users.Any(expression.Compile()));
// Compile never actually runs; AsExpandable will strip out the call to Compile and substitute it with a correct expression tree

Combining Expressions

Boolean operations

Csharp.svg
Expression<Func<User, bool>> e1 = x => x.Name.StartsWith("U");
Expression<Func<User, bool>> e2 = x => x.Name.EndsWith("2");

Expression<Func<User, bool>> e3 = x => e1.Invoke(x) && e2.Invoke(x);

Console.WriteLine(e3.Expand());  // x => (x.Name.StartsWith("U") AndAlso x.Name.EndsWith("2"))

context.Users.Where(e3.Expand());

Filter operation

Csharp.svg
Expression<Func<IEnumerable<int>, IEnumerable<int>>> e1 = l => l.Select(x => x + 1);
Expression<Func<IEnumerable<int>, IEnumerable<int>>> e10 = l => l.Select(x => x + 10);

Expression<Func<IEnumerable<int>, IEnumerable<int>>> combinedExpresions = x => e10.Invoke(e1.Invoke(x));

Console.WriteLine(combinedExpresions.Expand());  // x => (x.Select(x => x + 1).Select(x => x + 10))
var list = new[] { 1, 2, 3 };
var result = combinedExp.Invoke(list).ToList();  // 12, 13, 14

PredicateBuilder

Allow to dynamically construct a lambda expression tree.

Csharp.svg
var predicate = PredicateBuilder.New<User>();
predicate = predicate.And(x => x.Name.StartsWith("U"));
predicate = predicate.And(x => x.Name.EndsWith("2"));

context.Users.Where(predicate);
