    Examples

    The following code example demonstrates how to join a table with another using the JOIN method.

    using SnapObjects.Data;
    using System;
    
    namespace Appeon.ApiDoc.ISqlJoinBuilderExamples
    {
        public class JoinExample
        {
            private readonly SchoolContext _context;
    
            public JoinExample(SchoolContext dataContext)
            {
                // Sets data context.
                _context = dataContext;
            }
    
            public void Example2()
            {
                var sqlQueryBuilder = new SqlQueryBuilder();
    
                // Gets DepartmentID values and Name values from the "Department" table, and Title values from the "Course" table.
                // Sets to join "Department" table and "Course" table by: Department.DepartmentID = Course.DepartmentID.              
                // Specifies "CourseTable" as the alias for the table ("Course") to join.
                sqlQueryBuilder
                    .Select("Department.DepartmentID")
                    .Select("Department.Name")
                    .Select("CourseTable.Title")
                    .From("Department")
                    .Join("Course", "CourseTable")
                    .OnRaw("Department.DepartmentID = CourseTable.DepartmentID");
    
                // Converts to raw SQL for the database corresponding to the data context.
                string sql = sqlQueryBuilder.ToSqlString(_context);
    
                Console.WriteLine(sql);
    
                /*This code example produces the following output:           
                  SELECT
                    [Department].[DepartmentID],
                    [Department].[Name],
                    [CourseTable].[Title]
                  FROM [Department]
                  JOIN [Course] AS [CourseTable]
                  ON [Department].[DepartmentID] = [CourseTable].[DepartmentID]
                */
            }
