For reference here is some sample code showing how to use NetTopologySuite
with Dapper
.
https://gist.github.com/bricelam/7eca234674c3ca4150872f899af37611
It looks like the list of supported types can be found here: https://github.com/fsprojects/FSharp.Data.SqlClient/blob/2ef6c06a2844c2a1b61305bc6b78cbeede090915/src/SqlClient.DesignTime/SqlClientExtensions.fs#L120-L130
Which is a list of providerdbtype
, clrTypeFullName
, and isFixedLength
.
Finally these are used to construct TypeInfo
records with the following fields.
{
TypeName = name
Schema = schema_name
SqlEngineTypeId = system_type_id
UserTypeId = user_type_id
SqlDbType = providerdbtype
IsFixedLength = isFixedLength
ClrTypeFullName = clrTypeFullName
UdttName = if is_table_type then name else ""
TableTypeColumns = columns
}
Description
In the past this type provider had support for
SqlServer.Types
a big part of which are the Spatial Data Types for SQLServer.Today with the move to dotnetcore
Microsoft.SqlServer.Types
are no longer supported (only full framework). Dapper and Entityframework core both supportNetTopologySuite
as a replacement for the Geometry Sql Server Types. This library is much more widely supported and feature complete.In order once again support Spatial Data Types, and to gain parity with other popular dotnet SQL libraries
FSharp.Data.SqlClient
should also support Spatial Data Types viaNetTopologySuite
.Repro steps
Installing
Microsoft.SqlServer.Types
shows a warning that the package may not be fully compatible with your project.Expected behavior
I would expect a path to use
Spatial Data Types
or support for custom types.Actual behavior
It is not currently possible to use
NetTopologySuite
with this type provider.Known workarounds
Use a different library.
