Creates a LINQ query based on a raw SQL query, which returns a result set of a scalar type natively supported by the database provider.
public static System.Linq.IQueryable<TResult> SqlQuery<TResult> (this Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure.DatabaseFacade databaseFacade, FormattableString sql);
static member SqlQuery : Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure.DatabaseFacade * FormattableString -> System.Linq.IQueryable<'Result>
<Extension()>
Public Function SqlQuery(Of TResult) (databaseFacade As DatabaseFacade, sql As FormattableString) As IQueryable(Of TResult)
Type Parameters
- TResult
Parameters
- databaseFacade
- DatabaseFacade
The DatabaseFacade for the context.
The interpolated string representing a SQL query with parameters.
Returns
An IQueryable<T> representing the interpolated string SQL query.
Remarks
To use this method with a return type that isn't natively supported by the database provider, use the DefaultTypeMapping<TScalar>(Action<TypeMappingConfigurationBuilder<TScalar>>) method.
The returned IQueryable<T> can be composed over using LINQ to build more complex queries.
Note that this method does not start a transaction. To use this method with a transaction, first call BeginTransaction(DatabaseFacade, IsolationLevel) or UseTransaction.
As with any API that accepts SQL it is important to parameterize any user input to protect against a SQL injection attack. You can include parameter place holders in the SQL query string and then supply parameter values as additional arguments. Any parameter values you supply will automatically be converted to a DbParameter.
