This question is an enhancement to the already answered question How to apply multiple filter conditions (simultaneously) on a list?
In the above mentioned question we have a method that applied AND
operator on all the specifications. This is achieved by using LINQ All
operator on the specifications.
public static List<Product> GetProductsUisngAndFilters(List<Product> productList, List<Specification<Product>> productSpecifications)
{
return productList.Where(p => productSpecifications.All(ps => ps.IsSatisfiedBy(p))).ToList();
}
We need to create a new method (GetProductsUisngDynamicFilters) that is capable of performing AND
, OR
and NOT
specifications (and a mix of that). Any idea how we can solve this?
Filter Methods
public static class ProductFilterHelper
{
public static List<Product> GetProductsUisngAndFilters(List<Product> productList, List<Specification<Product>> productSpecifications)
{
return productList.Where(p => productSpecifications.All(ps => ps.IsSatisfiedBy(p))).ToList();
}
}

list.Add(p2);
list.Add(p3);
list.Add(p4);
list.Add(p5);
double priceLimit = 100;
List<Specification<Product>> specifications = new List<Specification<Product>>();
specifications.Add(new OnSaleSpecificationForProduct());
specifications.Add(new PriceGreaterThanSpecificationForProduct(priceLimit));
specifications.Add(new PriceGreaterThan105());
List<Product> selectedList = ProductFilterHelper.GetProductsBasedOnInputFilters(list, specifications);
