Order by relation count in NHibernate

问题:

I have a datastructure like this:

public class User
{
    public Guid Id {get;set;}
    public string Name {get;set;}
    public IList<Books> Books {get;set}
}

I have been struggeling with making it possible to sort the users by the count of bookmarks (one-to-many relation).

I have tried various approaches with both linq, criteria and queryover, but with no luck, and therefore hope one of you could help.

I am using paging, since I have quite a few users, so the solution needs to do the query on the SQL and not in memory on the webserver.

回答1:

var loadedUser = session.Query<User>()
    .Select(u => new { u, u.Books.Count })
    .ToList()
    .OrderBy(anonym => anonym.Count)
    .Select(anonym => anonym.u);

or using HQL

select user
from User as user 
    left join user.Books as books
group by user
order by count(books)

回答2:

See : Order by collection count using ICriteria & NHibernate

select u
from User u
join u.Books b
group by u
order by count(b) asc

Or using LINQ :

users.OrderBy(x => x.Books.Count);
