SQLProvider
A general .NET/Mono SQL database type provider. Current features:
- LINQ queries
- Lazy schema exploration
- Automatic constraint navigation
- Individuals
- Transactional CRUD operations with identity support
- Stored Procedures
- Functions
- Packages (Oracle)
- Composable Query integration
- Optional option types
- Mapping to record types
- Custom Operators
- Supports Asynchronous Operations
- Supports .NET Standard / .NET Core
- Supports saving DB schema offline, and SQL-Server *.dacpac files
The provider currently has explicit implementations for the following database vendors:
- SQL Server
- SQL Server SSDT
- SQLite
- PostgreSQL
- Oracle
- MySQL
- MsAccess
- Firebird
There is also an ODBC provider that will let you connect to any ODBC source with limited features.
All database vendors except SQL Server and MS Access will require 3rd party ADO.NET connector objects to function. These are dynamically loaded at runtime so that the SQL provider project is not dependent on them. You must supply the location of the assemblies with the "ResolutionPath" static parameter.
SQLite is based on the .NET drivers found here. You will need the correct version for your specific architecture and setup.
PostgreSQL is based on the Npgsql .NET drivers found here. The type provider will make frequent calls to the database. Npgsql provides a set of performance related connection strings parameters for tweaking its performance
MySQL is based on the .NET drivers found here. You will need the correct version for your specific architecture and setup. You also need to specify ResolutionPath, which points to the folder containing the dll files for the MySQL driver.
Oracle is based on the current release (12.1.0.1.2) of the managed ODP.NET driver found here. However, although the managed version is recommended, it should also work with previous versions of the native driver.
SQL Server SSDT is based on the current release (160.20216.14) found here.
