Anyway to wrap this into a `Expression`

[royberris]

Hi, thanks for this package it's very useful. So the predicate returend is of type Func<> which is not suitable when trying to execute this in SQL server.

What i am trying to ask is if there is any way to create a Expression<Func<T, bool>> from this package? So I can call it on SQL server instead of evaluating client side.

Hello,
Which method are you calling that returns a Func? They all return an Expression<..> that needs to be compiled or used by IQueryable.

Hey, I haven't yet implemented this yet but I was looking at the examples. In one place you have

var products = _dbContext.Products.AsQueryable().Where(predicate).ToList();

But doesn't the AsQueryable() mean it will be evaluated client side?

Nope, that example uses a DbSet from Entity Framework, AsQueryable is only used to turn that dbset into a queryable, then the predicate is applied to it. Ef will be the one executing the request in the database provider.
