Problem using aggregates with included fields

[Bert]

Hi,

I have  problem when I use aggregates on included fields in EF Core. Let me try to explain:

I have following queriable data:

 IQueryable<TblCarrier> queriableData = context.TblCarriers
                        .Include(x => x.CarPosU)
                        .Include(x => x.CarPosToNavigation)
                        .Include(x => x.CarArtU)
                        .AsQueryable();

 

The code herunder is working fine:

<GridAggregates>    
                <GridAggregate Field="CarArtUid" Aggregate="@GridAggregateType.Count" />
            </GridAggregates>

            <GridColumns>
                <GridColumn Field="CarUid" FieldType="@(typeof(long))" Title="Uid" Width="150" Editable="false" Filterable="true">
                </GridColumn>

                <GridColumn Field="CarBarcode" FieldType="@(typeof(long))" Title="Barcode" Width="150" Editable="false" Filterable="true"/>
                <GridColumn Field="CarTsCreation" FieldType="@(typeof(DateTime))" Title="Ts Created" DisplayFormat="{0:dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.fff}" Width="200" Editable="false" Filterable="true"/>
                <GridColumn Field="CarTsLastMove" FieldType="@(typeof(DateTime))" Title="Ts Moved" DisplayFormat="{0:dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.fff}" Width="200" Editable="false" Filterable="true"/>      
                <GridColumn Field="CarDescription" FieldType="@(typeof(string))" Title="Description" Width="200" Editable="@(this.RoleLevel>=eRoles.Administrator)"  Filterable="true"/>
                <GridColumn Field="CarArtUid" FieldType="@(typeof(long))" Title="Article" Width="200" Editable="@(this.RoleLevel>=eRoles.Developer)" Filterable="true">
                       <GroupHeaderTemplate>
                            Count: (@context.Count)
                        </GroupHeaderTemplate> 
                    
                    </GridColumn>

But when I try this, The context.count value is null:

<GridAggregates>    
                <GridAggregate Field="CarArtU.ArtErpCode" Aggregate="@GridAggregateType.Count" />
            </GridAggregates>

            <GridColumns>
                <GridColumn Field="CarUid" FieldType="@(typeof(long))" Title="Uid" Width="150" Editable="false" Filterable="true">
                </GridColumn>

                <GridColumn Field="CarBarcode" FieldType="@(typeof(long))" Title="Barcode" Width="150" Editable="false" Filterable="true"/>
                <GridColumn Field="CarTsCreation" FieldType="@(typeof(DateTime))" Title="Ts Created" DisplayFormat="{0:dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.fff}" Width="200" Editable="false" Filterable="true"/>
                <GridColumn Field="CarTsLastMove" FieldType="@(typeof(DateTime))" Title="Ts Moved" DisplayFormat="{0:dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.fff}" Width="200" Editable="false" Filterable="true"/>      
                <GridColumn Field="CarDescription" FieldType="@(typeof(string))" Title="Description" Width="200" Editable="@(this.RoleLevel>=eRoles.Administrator)"  Filterable="true"/>
                <GridColumn Field="CarArtU.ArtErpCode" FieldType="@(typeof(long))" Title="Article" Width="200" Editable="@(this.RoleLevel>=eRoles.Developer)" Filterable="true">
                       <GroupHeaderTemplate>
                            Count: (@context.Count)
                        </GroupHeaderTemplate> 
                    
                    </GridColumn>

 

The griddata is refreshed with the onread event

 DataEnvelope<T> dataToReturn = null;
                if (_Request.Groups.Count > 0)
                {
                    // Group again => Do grouping on local data
                    if (Result.Data != null)
                    {
                        Result = await Result.Data.ToDataSourceResultAsync(_Request);

                        dataToReturn = new DataEnvelope<T>
                        {
                            GroupedData = Result.Data.Cast<AggregateFunctionsGroup>().ToList(),
                            TotalItemCount = Result.Total
                        };
                        _GridData = dataToReturn.GroupedData.Cast<object>().ToList();
                    }
                }
                else
                {
                    dataToReturn = new DataEnvelope<T>
                    {
                        CurrentPageData = Result.Data.Cast<T>().ToList(),
                        TotalItemCount = Result.Total
                    };
                    _GridData = dataToReturn.CurrentPageData.Cast<object>().ToList();

                }

The grouped data seems to be fine. (See attached screenshot). The aggregate items key is CarArtU-ArtErpCode. Shouldn't that be CarArtU.ArtErpCode?

Thanks

Hello Bert,

Does setting only the field of the model like in our docs help (note how it is not prefixed by the name of the class):

<GridAggregate Field="ArtErpCode" Aggregate="@GridAggregateType.Count" />

compared to the original:

<GridAggregate Field="CarArtU.ArtErpCode" Aggregate="@GridAggregateType.Count" />
