Litedb: Is it will support LINQPad?

[wellxion]

like it's data context driver

[mbdavid]

Hi @wellxion, I never used LINQPad, but reading about It needs a special driver context to works.

At this point, LiteDB supports only simple find Linq expressions and no IQueryable implementations. In future, I want implement more complex query results and them LINQPad can be a good tool for LiteDB.

LINQPad is a powerful and convenient tool, I think LINQPad might be a nice tool to support LiteDB.
By the way, LiteDB is the best what I needed. Hope It can be better. :D

Aha,this is a really good idea.
Except the command console ,seems there is no gui tools to manager LiteDB (just like pl/sql MongoVUE)
LINQPad may be a good choice .

:+1: for a LINQPad driver - would be awesome to have!

Not sure if it helps any, but I noticed there's already a driver for a very similar (AFAICT) project FileDB @ http://www.eztools-software.com/tools/FileDb/linqpad.asp

That driver appears be available to use under Apache 2.0 from https://code.google.com/p/filedb-database/source/browse/trunk/Src/LinqPad+Driver?r=21#LinqPad%20Driver%2FSrc so maybe it's

I realize that's not the same FileDB project @mbdavid had done @ http://filedb.codeplex.com/ so apologies for any confusion caused by this.

In case it helps any, I exported the filedb-database project from google code to github so you can clone it a little easier:

Since LiteDB tries to follow MongoDB (AFAICT), a better starting point might be a MongoDB driver for LINQPad

https://mongolp.codeplex.com/

Underneath it uses https://github.com/craiggwilson/fluent-mongo

For completeness the page for the LINQPad extensibility model (linked from the drivers dialog in LINQPad)

+1 for LinqPad support!
I've used LinqPad a lot and being able to use LiteDB + LinqPad would be awesome! :)

+1 for LinqPad
its awasome

[adospace]

I've developped a LinqPad driver for LiteDB 3.0:

Pls check it out

BTW LiteDB is awesome!

@adospace that's great, thank you!
