How to map an IGrouping<Key, ValueA> to a IGrouping<Key, ValueB>? - linq

Given a function f:ValueA -> ValueB, how could I map an IGrouping of type IGrouping<Key, ValueA> to IGrouping<Key, ValueB>?
Problem instance:
Say you have this type:
TaggedItem = { Tag:Tag ; Item:Item }
and this query:
query {
for i in taggedItems
groupBy i.Tag into g
select g
}
This would give you a seq of type: IGrouping<Tag, TaggedItem>, but I really want a seq of type: IGrouping<Tag, Item>.
The mapping function is: fun taggedItem -> taggedItem.Item
Solution
The solution is to avoid the mapping of groupings and instead do the transformation while doing the group, using groupValBy, as pointed by the selected answer. The selected answer also shows how to do the mapping from one type of grouping to the other, if you insist.
query {
for i in taggedItems
groupValBy i.Tag i.Item into g
select g
}

How about this?
let mapGrouping f (xs : IGrouping<_,_>) =
let projection = xs |> Seq.map (fun x -> xs.Key, f x)
(projection.GroupBy (fst, snd)).First()
From your code example, I think you want this:
query {
for i in taggedItems do
groupValBy i.Item i.Tag into g
select g
}
At https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh225374.aspx, we learn that groupValBy "selects a value for each element selected so far and groups the elements by the given key."

Kotlin sorting list without 1 element

I have a list of objects and I would like to compare them by ids field. However, I would like to item with id=3 to show first, and then id=0, id=1 and so on.
list = list.sortedWith(compareBy<MyItem> {it.id})
I was trying a lot of combinations but don't know where to add if statement.
Greetings
list = list.sortedWith(Comparator { a, b -> when {
a.id == 3 -> -1
b.id == 3 -> 1
else -> Integer.compare(a.id, b.id)
}})

SqlDataProvider - Compose a where clause dynamically and execute the command

I have the following requirement:
Query a SQL table with a dynamically generated where clause that should be composed from a list at run time.
[<Literal>]
let connectionString = "Data Source=..."
type sql = SqlDataProvider<
ConnectionString = connectionString,
DatabaseVendor = Common.DatabaseProviderTypes.MSSQLSERVER,
UseOptionTypes = true>
let ctx = sql.GetDataContext()
type Key = {k:string;v:string}
let findCustomersByKeys (keys:Key list) =
query{
for c in ctx.Dbo.Customers do
where (keys.Any(fun k -> c.k = k.k && c.v = k.v))//this is what i wish i could do
select c
}
Is there a way to do it in F# with SqlDataProvider?
Any other technique?
You can use quotations to construct the predicate dynamically, and splice that directly into the query expressions since query expressions are actually compiled into quotations themselves.
The predicate is built by folding over the keys, recursively splicing or-conditions onto an initial condition of false. But because we can't close over c here, we also need to wrap each condition in a function and thread the argument through the predicate chain.
open Microsoft.FSharp.Quotations
type Key = {k:string;v:string}
let findCustomersByKeys (keys:Key list) =
let predicate =
keys
|> List.fold
(fun (acc: Expr<Key -> bool>) k ->
<# fun c -> (%acc) c || c.k = k.k && c.v = k.v #>)
<# fun c -> false #>
query {
for c in ctx.Dbo.Customers do
where ((%predicate) c)
select c
}

Having Clause In Linq

I have a query which is connecting two tables that is header and detail table and in the having clause i have to check whether total mark of the header should equal to the sum of the detail marks.
Query is :-
select h.ExamID,h.ExamID,max(h.TotalMark) as TotalMark
from ExamMasters h
join ExamDetails d on h.ExamID=d.ExamID
group by h.ExamID,h.ExamName
having max(h.TotalMark)=sum(d.Mark)
I just want to convert this query to linq syntax.
Can anybody help please.
Regards,
Ajith
It should be:
var res = from h in ExamMasters
join d in ExamDetails on h.ExamID equals d.ExamID
group new { h, d } by new { h.ExamID, h.ExamName } into hdg
let max = hdg.Max(x => x.h.TotalMark)
where hdg.Sum(x => x.d.Mark) == max
select new
{
hdg.Key.ExamID, hdg.Key.ExamName, TotalMark = max
};
Note the use of group ... by ... into and the fact that to have both h and d after the group by I had to put them in a new { h, d }.

Questions about custom query operator

I'm working on a custom query provider and would like to support SQL Server's recursive CTEs. I have something that I think will work, but there are two improvements I'd like to make.
First, here's the signature of my query operator (mostly based on GroupJoin).
type QueryBuilder with
[<CustomOperation("recurse", IsLikeGroupJoin = true, JoinConditionWord = "on")>]
member x.Recurse(
anchorSource: QuerySource<'Anchor, 'Q>,
recursiveSource: QuerySource<'Recursive, 'Q>,
anchorKeySelector: ('Anchor -> 'Key),
recursiveKeySelector: ('Recursive -> 'Key),
resultSelector: ('Anchor -> IQueryable<'Recursive> -> 'Result)) =
Unchecked.defaultof<QuerySource<'Result, 'Q>>
And here's a sample query. Note the comment. The first improvement I'd like to make is prior range variables shouldn't be accessible afterwards. Is this possible?
query {
for x in customQueryable do
where (x.Day = 5)
recurse y in customQueryable
on (x.Subtract(TimeSpan.FromDays 1.0) = y) into g
for z in g do
//NOTE: `x` shouldn't be in scope here
select x
}
The second improvement is, I'd prefer to use the query syntax below, but couldn't figure out how to pull it off.
query {
for x in customQueryable do
where (x.Day = 5)
for y in customQueryable do
recurseOn (x.Subtract(TimeSpan.FromDays 1.0) = y) into g
for z in g do
select z
}
I'm also wondering if this is possible.

Parametric LINQ query

This is another take on accessing dynamic objects in F# There I'm using let y = x.Where(fun x -> x.City ="London").Select("new(City,Zip)") to parametrize the query and extract the necessary items. These would correspond to columns in an SQL query, and be represented by a property of the datacontext. This is the part that I would like to pass in as a parameter.
type Northwind = ODataService<"http://services.odata.org/Northwind/Northwind.svc">
let db = Northwind.GetDataContext()
let query2 = query { for customer in db.Customers do
select customer} |> Seq.toArray
let qryfun (x:Northwind.ServiceTypes.Customer) =
query { for x in query2 do
select (x.City,x.CompanyName,x.Country)}
Basically I would like to pass in not only x but also x.*. As I'm accessing one database that is fixed, I can factor out x. However I now have 40 small functions extracting the different columns. Is it possible to factor it out to one function and pass the property as an argument? So sometimes I extractx.City but other times x.Country. I have tried using quotations however cannot splice it properly and maybe that is not the right approach.
Regarding quotation splicing, this works for me:
open System.Linq
type record = { x:int; y:string }
let mkQuery q =
query {
for x in [{x=1;y="test"}].AsQueryable() do
select ((%q) x)
}
mkQuery <# fun r -> r.x, r.y #>
|> Seq.iter (printfn "%A")
