hey @ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, The probelm I have is adding the include stament include cusotmers only shows these two reuslts. Even though if you look at the pciture of the database there is alot more. Do you have any idea why this happing i have spent like 10 hours trying to fix this.

Angius•2mo ago

Not sure what that .heic file is

aaron•2mo ago

oh it was a image of the database

aaron•2mo ago

why is the include customers braking it if i dont put that i will display everthing. The cusomter mdoel inheirtes form the built in apilalction user class but all the relastioships are set up right as it is adding to the data base @ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Angius•2mo ago

Well, it seems fine to me As in, it shoul;d be fetching all orders

aaron•2mo ago

yes including cusotmers if i remove the incldue cusomter it works its shwos everhting

Angius•2mo ago

What happens when you ditch the includes and use a select instead?

aaron•2mo ago

do you have any idea why it is not so that would be select cusomter ill try

Angius•2mo ago

No That would be selecting the data into a DTO class

aaron•2mo ago

oh ok what do you mean by this

Angius•2mo ago

I mean exactly and precisely what I said

var orders = await _context.Orders
    .Select(o => new OrderDto {
        Id = o.Id,
        // ...
        Status = o.Status.Name,
        Customers = o.Customers.Select(c => c.Name).ToList()
    })
    .ToListAsync();

var orders = await _context.Orders
    .Select(o => new OrderDto {
        Id = o.Id,
        // ...
        Status = o.Status.Name,
        Customers = o.Customers.Select(c => c.Name).ToList()
    })
    .ToListAsync();

for example

i am trying that rn thanks

aaron•2mo ago

i feel this could be the same reason the .include did not work as well could this be beacuse cusomter is iherting form the identiy user pre built in class @ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Angius•2mo ago

What is Customers? Is it a collection of customers?

aaron•2mo ago

a class yes

Angius•2mo ago

Why does the error imply that it is, in fact, not?

aaron•2mo ago

ill show you my model

aaron•2mo ago

thats in orders

aaron•2mo ago

Angius•2mo ago

That does not look like a collection to me

aaron•2mo ago

oh my bad but one order can only have one cusotmer

Angius•2mo ago

Why is it named plural, "Collections" then

aaron•2mo ago

idk i though thats just naming convetion

Angius•2mo ago

That's the worst naming convention I've seen in my entire life and fuck whoever decided to impose it on this project Regardless Since it's not a collection, we cannot use LINQ So... you just get what you need from the customer directly

var orders = await _context.Orders
    .Select(o => new OrderDto {
        Id = o.Id,
        // ...
        Status = o.Status.Name,
        CustomerName = o.Customers.Name
    })
    .ToListAsync();

var orders = await _context.Orders
    .Select(o => new OrderDto {
        Id = o.Id,
        // ...
        Status = o.Status.Name,
        CustomerName = o.Customers.Name
    })
    .ToListAsync();

for example

aaron•2mo ago

oh so on the front end I can not be like cusotmers.name etc

Angius•2mo ago

You can just fetch the whole customer, sure

aaron•2mo ago

is there a way to get everthing

Angius•2mo ago

But do you need to?

aaron•2mo ago

ya ig becuase the admin should be able to see the cusotmers detials do i have to type each feild or is there a way to select the whole thing

Angius•2mo ago

You can just do Customer = o.Customers ig

aaron•2mo ago

ok ill try thank you one last thing is there a way to do it wihto a dto or is it needed since it is not a collection

Angius•2mo ago

The way to do it without a DTO is the way you were doing it before Which is suitable for school projects

aaron•2mo ago

but that dosent work

Angius•2mo ago

But only to a point, then I'd start docking points It should work Which is why I told you to try the proper way, using a DTO If that still doesn't work, something else is broken

aaron•2mo ago

ok thankk yoiu very much
