Entity Framework loading child collection with sort order

Question

I have two tables a parent and a child table. The child table has a column sortorder (a numeric value). Because of the missing support of the EF to persist a IList inclusive

Answer 1

In addition to needing to order, I needed to limit the results of the children. I did it like this:

var transactions = await _context.Transaction
            .Include(x => x.User)
            .OrderByDescending(x => x.CreatedAt)
            .Where(x => x.User.Id == _tenantInfo.UserId)
            .Take(10)
            .ToListAsync();

var viewmodel = _mapper.Map(transactions.First().User);
