CouchDB.NET

EF Core-like CouchDB experience for .NET!

LINQ queries

C# query example:

// Setup
public class MyDeathStarContext : CouchContext
{
    public CouchDatabase<Rebel> Rebels { get; set; }
    public CouchDatabase<Clone> Clones { get; set; }

    protected override void OnConfiguring(CouchOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder)
    {
      optionsBuilder
        .UseEndpoint("http://localhost:5984/")
        .EnsureDatabaseExists()
        .UseBasicAuthentication(username: "anakin", password: "empirerule");
    }
}

// Usage
await using var context = new MyDeathStarContext();
var skywalkers = await context.Rebels
    .Where(r => 
        r.Surname == "Skywalker" && 
        (
            r.Battles.All(b => b.Planet == "Naboo") ||
            r.Battles.Any(b => b.Planet == "Death Star")
        )
    )
    .OrderByDescending(r => r.Name)
    .ThenByDescending(r => r.Age)
    .Take(2)
    .Select(
        r => r.Name,
        r => r.Age
    })
    .ToListAsync();

The produced Mango JSON:

{
  "selector": {
    "$and": [
      {
        "surname": "Skywalker"
      },
      {
        "$or": [
          {
            "battles": {
              "$allMatch": {
                "planet": "Naboo"
              }
            }
          },
          {
            "battles": {
              "$elemMatch": {
                "planet": "Death Star"
              }
            }
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  },
  "sort": [
    { "name": "desc" },
    { "age": "desc" }
  ],
  "limit": 2,
  "fields": [
    "name",
    "age"
  ]
}

Getting started

  • Install it from NuGet: https://www.nuget.org/packages/CouchDB.NET
  • Create a context or a client, where localhost will be the IP address and 5984 is CouchDB standard tcp port:
    await using var context = new MyDeathStarContext(builder => {});
    // or
    await using(var client = new CouchClient("http://localhost:5984", builder => {})) { }
  • Create a document class:
    public class Rebel : CouchDocument
  • Get a database reference:
    var rebels = context.Rebels;
    // or
    var rebels = client.GetDatabase<Rebel>();
  • Query the database
    var skywalkers = await rebels.Where(r => r.Surname == "Skywalker").ToListAsync();

Queries

The database class exposes all the implemented LINQ methods like Where and OrderBy, those methods returns an IQueryable.

LINQ are supported natively to the following is possible:

var skywalkers =
    from r in context.Rebels
    where r.Surname == "Skywalker"
    select r;

Selector

The selector is created when the method Where (IQueryable) is called. If the Where method is not called in the expression, it will at an empty selector.

Combinations

Mango C#
$and &&
$or ||
$not !
$nor !( || )
$all a.Contains(x)
$all a.Contains(list)
$elemMatch a.Any(condition)
$allMatch a.All(condition)

Conditions

$nin !o.In(list)
$size a.Count == x
$mod n % x = y
$regex s.IsMatch(rx)

Native methods

Composite methods

Some methods that are not directly supported by CouchDB are converted to a composition of supported ones!

Input Output
Min(d => d.Property) OrderBy(d => d.Property).Take(1).Select(d => d.Property).Min()
Max(d => d.Property) OrderByDescending(d => d.Property).Take(1).Select(d => d.Property).Max()
Sum(d => d.Property) Select(d => d.Property).Sum()
Average(d => d.Property) Select(d => d.Property).Average()
Any() Take(1).Any()
Any(d => condition) Where(d => condition).Take(1).Any()
All(d => condition) Where(d => !condition).Take(1).Any()
Single() Take(2).Single()
SingleOrDefault() Take(2).SingleOrDefault()
Single(d => condition) Where(d => condition).Take(2).Single()
SingleOrDefault(d => condition) Where(d => condition).Take(2).SingleOrDefault()
First() Take(1).First()
FirstOrDefault() Take(1).FirstOrDefault()
First(d => condition) Where(d => condition).Take(1).First()
FirstOrDefault(d => condition) Where(d => condition).Take(1).FirstOrDefault()
Last() Where(d => Last()
LastOrDefault() LastOrDefault()
Last(d => condition) Where(d => condition).Last()
LastOrDefault(d => condition) Where(d => condition).LastOrDefault()

INFO: Also Select(d => d.Property), Min and Max are supported.

WARN: Since Max and Min use sort, an index must be created.

All other IQueryables methods

Since v2.0 IQueryable methods that are not natively supported will throw an exception.

.UseJwtAuthentication(async () => await NewTokenAsync())

Options

The second parameter of the client constructor is a function to configure CouchSettings fluently.

public class MyDeathStarContext : CouchContext
{
  /* ... */

    protected override void OnConfiguring(CouchOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder)
    {
      optionsBuilder
        .UseBasicAuthentication("root", "relax")
        .DisableEntitisPluralization()
        ...
    }
}

// or

var client = new CouchClient("http://localhost:5984", builder => builder
    .UseBasicAuthentication("root", "relax")
    .DisableEntitisPluralization()
    ...
)
Method Description
UseBasicAuthentication Enables basic authentication.
UseCookieAuthentication Enables cookie authentication.
IgnoreCertificateValidation Removes any SSL certificate validation.
ConfigureCertificateValidation Sets a custom SSL validation rule.
DisableDocumentPluralization Disables documents pluralization in requests.
SetDocumentCase Sets the format case for documents.
SetPropertyCase Sets the format case for properties.
SetNullValueHandling Sets how to handle null values.
DisableLogOutOnDispose Disables log out on client dispose.
  • DocumentCaseTypes: None, UnderscoreCase (default), DashCase, KebabCase.
  • PropertyCaseTypes: None, CamelCase (default), PascalCase, UnderscoreCase, DashCase, KebabCase.

Custom JSON values

If you need custom values for documents and properties, it's possible to use JsonObject and JsonProperty attributes.

[JsonObject("custom-rebels")]
public class OtherRebel : Rebel

[JsonProperty("rebel_bith_date")]
public DateTime BirthDate { get; set; }

Attachments

The driver fully support attachments, you can list, create, delete and download them.

// Get a document
var luke = new Rebel { Name = "Luke", Age = 19 };

// Add in memory
var pathToDocument = @".\luke.txt"
luke.Attachments.AddOrUpdate(pathToDocument, MediaTypeNames.Text.Plain);

// Delete in memory
luke.Attachments.Delete("yoda.txt");

// Save
luke = await rebels.CreateOrUpdateAsync(luke);

// Get
CouchAttachment lukeTxt = luke.Attachments["luke.txt"];

// Iterate
foreach (CouchAttachment attachment in luke.Attachments)
{ 
  ...
}

// Download
string downloadFilePath = await rebels.DownloadAttachment(attachment, downloadFolderPath, "luke-downloaded.txt");

DB Changes Feed

The following feed modes are supported: normal, longpool and continuous. Also all options and filter types are supported.

Continuous mode is probably the most useful and it's implemented with the new IAsyncEnumerable.

var tokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();
await foreach (var change in _rebels.GetContinuousChangesAsync(options: null, filter: null, tokenSource.Token))
{
    if (/* ... */) {
      tokenSource.Cancel();
    }
}

Feed Options

// Example
var options = new ChangesFeedOptions
{
  Descending = true,
  Limit = 10,
  Since = "now",
  IncludeDocs = true
};
ChangesFeedResponse<Rebel> changes = await GetChangesAsync(options);

Feed Filter

// _doc_ids
var filter = ChangesFeedFilter.DocumentIds(new[] { "luke", "leia" });
// _selector
var filter = ChangesFeedFilter.Selector<Rebel>(rebel => rebel.Age == 19);
// _design
var filter = ChangesFeedFilter.Design();
// _view
var filter = ChangesFeedFilter.View(view);

// Use
ChangesFeedResponse<Rebel> changes = await GetChangesAsync(options: null, filter);

Indexing

It is possible to create indexes to use when querying.

// Basic index creation
await _rebels.CreateIndexAsync("rebels_index", b => b
    .IndexBy(r => r.Surname))
    .ThenBy(r => r.Name));

// Descending index creation
await _rebels.CreateIndexAsync("rebels_index", b => b
    .IndexByDescending(r => r.Surname))
    .ThenByDescending(r => r.Name));

Index Options

// Specifies the design document and/or whether a JSON index is partitioned or global
await _rebels.CreateIndexAsync("rebels_index", b => b
    .IndexBy(r => r.Surname),
    new IndexOptions()
    {
        DesignDocument = "surnames_ddoc",
        Partitioned = true
    });

Partial Indexes

// Create an index which excludes documents at index time
await _rebels.CreateIndexAsync("skywalkers_index", b => b
    .IndexBy(r => r.Name)
    .Where(r => r.Surname == "Skywalker");

Indexes operations

// Get the list of indexes
var indexes = await _rebels.GetIndexesAsync();

// Delete an indexes
await _rebels.DeleteIndexAsync(indexes[0]);
// or
await _rebels.DeleteIndexAsync("surnames_ddoc", name: "surnames");

CouchContext Index Configuration

Finally it's possible to configure indexes on the CouchContext.

public class MyDeathStarContext : CouchContext
{
    public CouchDatabase<Rebel> Rebels { get; set; }

    // OnConfiguring(CouchOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder) { ... }

    protected override void OnDatabaseCreating(CouchDatabaseBuilder databaseBuilder)
    {
        databaseBuilder.Document<Rebel>()
            .HasIndex("rebel_surnames_index", b => b.IndexBy(b => b.Surname));
    }
}

Database Splitting

It is possible to use the same database for multiple types:

public class MyDeathStarContext : CouchContext
{
    public CouchDatabase<Rebel> Rebels { get; set; }
    public CouchDatabase<Vehicle> Vehicles { get; set; }

    // OnConfiguring(CouchOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder) { ... }

    protected override void OnDatabaseCreating(CouchDatabaseBuilder databaseBuilder)
    {
        databaseBuilder.Document<Rebel>().ToDatabase("troops");
        databaseBuilder.Document<Vehicle>().ToDatabase("troops");
    }
}

When multiple CouchDatabase point to the same database, a split_discriminator field is added on document creation.

When querying, a filter by split_discriminator is added automatically.

If you are not using CouchContext, you can still use the database split feature:

var rebels = client.GetDatabase<Rebel>("troops", nameof(Rebel));
var vehicles = client.GetDatabase<Vehicle>("troops", nameof(Vehicle));

Views

It's possible to query a view with the following:

var options = new CouchViewOptions<string[]>
{
    StartKey = new[] {"Luke", "Skywalker"},
    IncludeDocs = true
};
var viewRows = await _rebels.GetViewAsync<string[], RebelView>("jedi", "by_name", options);
// OR
var details = await _rebels.GetDetailedViewAsync<int, BattleView>("battle", "by_name", options);

You can also query a view with multiple options to get multiple results:

var lukeOptions = new CouchViewOptions<string[]>
{
    Key = new[] {"Luke", "Skywalker"},
    IncludeDocs = true
};
var yodaOptions = new CouchViewOptions<string[]>
{
    Key = new[] {"Yoda"},
    IncludeDocs = true
};
var queries = new[]
{
    lukeOptions,
    yodaOptions
};

var results = await _rebels.GetViewQueryAsync<string[], RebelView>("jedi", "by_name", queries);
var lukeRows = results[0];
var yodaRows = results[1];
// OR
var details = await _rebels.GetDetailedViewQueryAsync<string[], RebelView>("jedi", "by_name", queries);
var lukeDetails = details[0];
var yodaDetails = details[1];

Local (non-replicating) Documents

The Local (non-replicating) document interface allows you to create local documents that are not replicated to other databases.

var docId = "settings";
var settings = new RebelSettings
{
    Id = docId,
    IsActive = true
};

// Create
await _rebels.LocalDocuments.CreateOrUpdateAsync(settings);

// Get by ID
settings = await _rebels.LocalDocuments.GetAsync<RebelSettings>(docId);

// Get all
var docs = await local.GetAsync();

// Search
var searchOpt = new LocalDocumentsOptions
{
    Descending = true,
    Limit = 10,
    Conflicts = true
};
var docs = await local.GetAsync(searchOpt);

Bookmark and Execution stats

If bookmark and execution stats must be retrived, call ToCouchList or ToCouchListAsync.

var allRebels = await rebels.ToCouchListAsync();

foreach(var r in allRebels) 
{
    ...
}
var b = allRebels.Bookmark;
var ex = allRebels.ExecutionStats; // .IncludeExecutionStats() must be called

Users

The driver natively support the _users database.

var users = client.GetUsersDatabase();
var luke = await users.CreateAsync(new CouchUser(name: "luke", password: "lasersword"));

It's possible to extend CouchUser for store custom info.

var users = client.GetUsersDatabase<CustomUser>();
var luke = await users.CreateAsync(new CustomUser(name: "luke", password: "lasersword"));

To change password:

luke = await users.ChangeUserPassword(luke, "r2d2");

Dependency Injection

As always you can leverage all the benefits of Dependency Injection.

Info: The context will be registered as a singleton.

  • Create a CouchContext with a constructor like the following:
public class MyDeathStarContext : CouchContext
{
    public CouchDatabase<Rebel> Rebels { get; set; }

    public MyDeathStarContext(CouchOptions<MyDeathStarContext> options)
        : base(options) { }
}
  • Register the context via any of supported containers (see appropriate section section below)

  • Inject the context:

// RebelsController
public class RebelsController : Controller
{
    private readonly MyDeathStarContext _context;

    public RebelsController(MyDeathStarContext context)
    {
        _context = context;
    }
}

Microsoft container

// ConfigureServices
services.AddCouchContext<MyDeathStarContext>(builder => builder
    .UseEndpoint("http://localhost:5984")
    .UseBasicAuthentication(username: "admin", password: "admin"));

Autofac container

// ConfigureServices
var containerBuilder = new ContainerBuilder();
containerBuilder.AddCouchContext<MyDeathStarContext>(optionsBuilder => optionsBuilder
    .UseEndpoint("http://localhost:5984")
    .UseBasicAuthentication(username: "admin", password: "admin"));

Advanced

If requests have to be modified before each call, it's possible to override OnBeforeCallAsync.

protected virtual Task OnBeforeCallAsync(HttpCall call)

Also, the configurator has ConfigureFlurlClient to set custom HTTP client options.
