Parsing expression with unknown number of parameters in DynamicExpreso

100 Views Asked by At

Due to performance reasons GitHub page suggests "If you need to run the same expression multiple times with different parameters I suggest to parse it one time and then invoke the parsed expression multiple times."

I have a class like this:

public class Conditional : TemplateElement
{
 public string Condition { get => _condition; set => _condition = value; }
 public Lambda Parsed { get => ...; private set => ... }

 public Conditional(string condition)
 {
  Condition = condition;
  ...
  ParseExpression();
 }

 private void ParseExpression()
 {
  var target = new Interpreter();
  Lambda = target.Parse(Condition, ???);
 }
}

The 'Condition' string can be in form:

item["CreatedDate"] <= DateTime.Today.AddDays(-2)

Now, at the moment of instantiation of Conditional class I don't know what the 'item' contains, I want it to be parsed so I can use it later. Lambda should resolve to the Condition to boolean.

I'm not exactly sure how to achieve this, documentation doesn't help me much. Should I define 'item' as specific type in Parameters array?
