How to tell DocumentDB SDK to use camelCase during linq query?

Question

Considering the document { \"userName\": \"user1\" } stored in the User collection, and the following User class:

public class Use         


        

Answer 1

The DocumentDB LINQ provider does not pick up the JsonConvert.DefaultSettings. In general you can use the DefaultSettings to control camelCase, but for those properties you wish to use in a LINQ Where clause must have the name explicitly set using JsonProperty attribute on your DTO.

public class User
{
    public string Id { get; set; }

    [JsonProperty("userName")]
    public string UserName { get; set; }
}

Although a bit tedious and a good source for bugs, it seems to be your only option for now.
