LINQ queries



string[] arr= new string[]{"Anish","Jeeba","Jiya"};



  • IEnumerable<string> obj= (from item in arr select $"{item} is my name").ToList();
using let 

var result=from a in arr
let name= a.StartsWith('a')
where name
select a;

let acts as a temporary storage.

List<List<SampleList>> sam=new List<List<SampleList>>{
new List<SampleList>
{
new List<SampleList> { new SampleList{Name="Anish", number=31, Gender="M"}, new SampleList{Name="Anish", number=61, Gender="M"} }, new List<SampleList> { new SampleList{Name="Jeeba", number=12, Gender="F"}, new SampleList{Name="Jiya", number=44, Gender="F"} }, new List<SampleList> { new SampleList{Name="libu", number=12, Gender="M"}, new SampleList{Name="Vipin", number=55, Gender="F"} }
};

var x= (from s in sam
let val=s
from v in val
where v.number > 32
select new SampleList{
Name= v.Name,
number= v.number,
}).ToList();

Usage of let: for example to store the temporary result. In the below example we store the square value and avoid repetition.

List<List<int>> li=new List<List<int>>{
new List<int>{1,2,3},
new List<int>{6,7,8},
};

var res= from l in li
from z in l
let square=z*z
where square > 50
select z;

Group By

var res = from s in sam
                      from x in s
                     // where x.number > 18  Conditions can also be added
                      group x by x.Gender;

 foreach (var item in res)
            {
                Console.WriteLine($"{item.Key}");
                foreach (var i in item)
                    Console.WriteLine($"  {i.Name} : {i.number}");
            }

OR

var output = res.Select(i => new
            {
                key = i.Key,
                data = i.Select(z => new SampleList { Gender = z.Gender, Name = z.Name, number = z.number }).ToList()
            });

foreach (var item in output)
            {
                Console.WriteLine($"Lambda: {item.key}");
                foreach (var i in item.data)
                    Console.WriteLine($"   {i.Name} : {i.number}");
            }



Since we have grouped the data based on gender. So gender becomes the Key and the data is present in the inner loop.

First Letter of the Name Group

var alphabetGroup = from s in sam
                                from x in s
                                group x by x.Name[0];


By Multiple Keys

We group the data based on gender and number

var multipleKeys = from s in sam
                               from x in s
                               group x by new { x.Gender, x.number };



If we need to further order our data, we will need to create another query (as the query needs to end in a group by or select statement) and order the data accordingly. But we can use the into keyword to perform this operation in the same query.

INTO 

var multInto = from s in sam
                           from x in s
                           group x by new { x.number, x.Gender } into newGroup
                           orderby newGroup.Key.number

                           select $"{newGroup.Key.Gender}: {newGroup.Count()} ";


Group based on a key that does not exist (Usage of let)

Group based on age in the list given below. Such that numbers less than 18 fall under category "kid", >  18 "Boy" and > 50 "Old". We cannot use if else , but we can use the ternary operations.

 List<int> ageList = new List<int> { 1, 2, 3, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88 };

            var res = from age in ageList
                     let x = age > 18 ?
                                (age > 50) ? "Old" : "Boy"
                            : "kid"
                      group age by x into sample
                      select new {
                          key=sample.Key,
                          count=sample.Count(),
                          data=sample
                      };

            foreach (var item in res)
            {
                Console.WriteLine($"{item.key}: {item.count}");
                foreach (var i in item.data)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine($"  {i}");
                }


            }





 List<List<SampleList>> sam = new List<List<SampleList>>{
            new List<SampleList>
            {
               new SampleList{Name="Anish", number=31, Gender="M"},
               new SampleList{Name="Anish", number=61, Gender="M"}
            },
            new List<SampleList>
            {
                new SampleList{Name="Jeeba", number=12, Gender="F"},
                new SampleList{Name="Jiya", number=44, Gender="F"}
            },
            new List<SampleList>
            {
                new SampleList{Name="libu", number=31, Gender="M"},
                new SampleList{Name="Vipin", number=55, Gender="F"}
            },
            };

            List<List<SampleList2>> sam1 = new List<List<SampleList2>>{
            new List<SampleList2>
            {
               new SampleList2{Name1="abc", number1=31, Gender1="M"},
               new SampleList2{Name1="xyz", number1=62, Gender1="M"}
            },
            new List<SampleList2>
            {
                new SampleList2{Name1="fff", number1=12, Gender1="F"},
                new SampleList2{Name1="Jiya", number1=45, Gender1="F"}
            },
            new List<SampleList2>
            {
                new SampleList2{Name1="eee", number1=24, Gender1="M"},
                new SampleList2{Name1="vvv", number1=55, Gender1="F"}
            },
            };

Getting Inner data using SelectMany

 var s2 = sam.SelectMany(i => i.Select(z => new SampleList
            { number = z.number, Gender = z.Gender, Name = z.Name })).ToList();


Left Join

For every item in s2 , check if we have an entry. group matching records in s1 and if no records exist then display "no name available"

var res1 = (from sIn in s1
                      join sin2 in s2 on sIn.number1 equals sin2.number into g
                      select new
                      {
                          sss = g.DefaultIfEmpty(new SampleList() {
                              Name="No Name",
                              Gender="NA",
                              number=0
                          }).ToList(),
                          NameS=sIn.Name1,
                          NumS=sIn.number1
                      }).ToList();

Azure AD Authentication And Authorization

ROLE BASED AUTHORIZATION Step1:   Setup  API. 1. Create an app registration and create an app role. Make sure that the app role is assigned to user and applications. We add it to both user groups and applications as this role can be then assigned to both users and applications. Scopes can only be assigned to apps. Now we can have only users with this role access our application. This app role behind the scenes adds an approles section to the manifest.json. We can directly add it to the manifest file also. Step 2:  Setup an app registration for the UI/ WEB App. . We will grant this app the read role created in the API app (shown above). Go to Azure AD and select the UI app registration. When we register an application 2 elements get created. 1. App registration  2. Enterprise Application -- service principal that get created for the app Adding roles to applications Go to the App registration => API Persmissions => Add a Permission => My API's The My Api's sec...

Service Endpoints --

 1. Create a VNET with 2 subnets 2. Create a service endpoint policy. That enables us to specify which particular storage account to connect to. This is currently enabled for storage accounts alone. Otherwise as part of service endpoints we can specify the resource provider alone and not a specific resource. We can specify this service endpoint policy while creating a service endpoint. Only storage account allow service endpoint policies as of now. If we notice then selecting cosmos db or any other service other than storage will not have the ability to accept service endpoint policies. As mentioned microsoft.storage allows us to add service endpoint policies. Thus we can specify a particular resource within a provider This is 1 way of enabling service endpoints. Or we can directly go to the storage account and from the networking tab select Sub1. This will automatically configure service endpoints and will add a service endpoint policy that enables the resource to connect to the s...

Azure Service Bus

Service bus is a refined version of the queue service. We can create topics for PUB/SUB.  Firstly we need to create a namespace, under this namespace we can create queues or topics. The Service bus explorer can be used to send/receive/peek message on the service bus. If we read the message then the message is removed from the queue, whereas with peek we can see the message without removing it. To get to the service bus explorer , create a queue in the service bus namespace An enterprise service bus implements a communication system between mutually interacting software applications in a service-oriented architecture. QUEUE PROPERTIES TIME to Live We can set a common time to live or each message in the queue, this can be done by configuring the TTL at the queue level. Each message can have its own TTL which will override the Queue TTL. LOCK Duration: When we set the lock duration on a message what happens is that once a receiver receives the messages no other receivers or subscribe...
