Dragon Core is a strong typed ORM tool for .NET 5.

Use the Dragon ORM for .NET framework 2.x-4.x.

• V 2.2 Supports .NET 5, C# 9 positional record types
• V 2.1 Supports .NET 5, C# 9 record types
• V 2.0 Supports .NET Core 3.1

dotnet add package DragonCore

You can use positional record type from C# 9

public record User (int UserId, string Email);

Or use record type

public record User
{
  public int UserId { get; init; }
  public string Email { get; init; }
}

Or just use regular C# class

public class User
{
  public int UserId { get; set; }
  public string Email { get; set; }
}

Database database = Database.Open("Server=127.0.0.1;Database=test;User Id=<user-id>;Password=<YourStrong@Passw0rd>;");

var users = database.Query<User>("select UserId, Email from UserProfile where UserId=@UserId", new { UserId = 2 }).ToList();

Assert.AreEqual(2, users[0].UserId);
Assert.AreEqual("[email protected]", users[0].Email);

The Database class has four methods: Open, Execute, QueryValue, and Query.

• Open: opens database connection using a connection string.
• Execute: creates a command and runs ExecuteNonQuery.
• QueryValue: creates a command and runs ExecuteScalar.
• Query: creates a command with SQL statement(s) or stored procedure name and creates objects. The Query method supports up to 3 multiple record sets. The result objects are returned in a Tuple, E.g.

Database database = Database.Open(/*connection string*/);
var (users, members, roles) = database.Query<TestUser, TestMemberShip, TestUserRole>(@"
  select * from dbo.UserProfile
  Select * from dbo.webpages_Membership
  select * from dbo.webpages_Roles");

Assert.AreEqual(1, users.ToList()[0].UserId);
Assert.AreEqual(0, members.Count());
Assert.AreEqual("Sysadmin", roles.ToList()[0].RoleName);

Use the TransactionScope, guaranteeing that database queries can commit or rollback as a single unit of work.

try
{
    Database database = Database.Open(/*connection string*/);
    using (TransactionScope scope = new TransactionScope())
    {
        database.execute(...);
        database.execute(...);
        database.execute(...);

        // The Complete method commits the transaction. If an exception has been thrown, the transaction is rolled back.
            scope.Complete();
        }
    }
    catch (TransactionAbortedException ex)
    {
        writer.WriteLine("TransactionAbortedException Message: {0}", ex.Message);
    }
}

The unit test project creates a test database on your SQL server and populates testing data. You can use an existing SQL Server / SQL Server LocalDB or use SQL Server from docker.

docker run -e "ACCEPT_EULA=Y" -e "SA_PASSWORD=<YourStrong@Passw0rd>" -p 1433:1433 --name sql -h sql -d mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2019-latest

Once you have identified the SQL server, change the connection string in DragonCore.Tests/DatabaseTest.cs.

static string connectionString = "Server=127.0.0.1;Database=test;User Id=<user-id>;Password=<YourStrong@Passw0rd>;";

And run the unit tests.

dotnet test
