Represents a PostgreSQL ltree type. This type is implicitly convertible to a .NET string.

public readonly struct LTree : IEquatable<LTree>
Implements
Inherited Members

Remarks

Constructors

LTree(string)

Constructs a new instance of LTree.

public LTree(string value)

Parameters

value string

The string value for the ltree.

Properties

NLevel

Returns number of labels in path.

public int NLevel { get; }

Property Value

int

Remarks

The property is translated to nlevel(ltree).

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

Methods

Equals(LTree)

public bool Equals(LTree other)

Parameters

other LTree

Returns

bool

Equals(object?)

public override bool Equals(object? obj)

Parameters

obj object

Returns

bool

GetHashCode()

public override int GetHashCode()

Returns

int

Index(LTree)

Returns position of first occurrence of other in this ltree, or -1 if not found.

public int Index(LTree other)

Parameters

other LTree

Returns

int

Remarks

The method call is translated to index(ltree1, ltree2).

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

Index(LTree, int)

Returns position of first occurrence of other in this ltree, or -1 if not found. The search starts at position offset; negative offset means start -offset labels from the end of the path.

public int Index(LTree other, int offset)

Parameters

other LTree
offset int

Returns

int

Remarks

The method call is translated to index(ltree1, ltree2, offset).

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

IsAncestorOf(LTree)

Returns whether this ltree is an ancestor of other (or equal).

public bool IsAncestorOf(LTree other)

Parameters

other LTree

Returns

bool

Remarks

The method call is translated to left @> right.

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

IsDescendantOf(LTree)

Returns whether this ltree is a descendant of other (or equal).

public bool IsDescendantOf(LTree other)

Parameters

other LTree

Returns

bool

Remarks

The method call is translated to left <@ right.

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

LongestCommonAncestor(params LTree[])

Computes longest common ancestor of paths.

public static LTree LongestCommonAncestor(params LTree[] others)

Parameters

others LTree[]

Returns

LTree

Remarks

The method call is translated to lca(others).

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

MatchesLQuery(string)

Returns whether this ltree matches lquery.

public bool MatchesLQuery(string lquery)

Parameters

lquery string

Returns

bool

Remarks

The method call is translated to left ~ right.

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

MatchesLTxtQuery(string)

Returns whether this ltree matches ltxtquery.

public bool MatchesLTxtQuery(string ltxtquery)

Parameters

ltxtquery string

Returns

bool

Remarks

The method call is translated to left @ right.

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

Subpath(int)

Returns subpath of ltree starting at position offset, extending to end of path. If offset is negative, subpath starts that far from the end of the path.

public LTree Subpath(int offset)

Parameters

offset int

Returns

LTree

Remarks

The method call is translated to subpath(ltree, offset).

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

Subpath(int, int)

Returns subpath of this ltree starting at position offset, with length len. If offset is negative, subpath starts that far from the end of the path. If len is negative, leaves that many labels off the end of the path.

public LTree Subpath(int offset, int len)

Parameters

offset int
len int

Returns

LTree

Remarks

The method call is translated to subpath(ltree, offset, len).

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

Subtree(int, int)

Returns subpath of this ltree from position start to position end-1 (counting from 0).

public LTree Subtree(int start, int end)

Parameters

start int
end int

Returns

LTree

Remarks

The method call is translated to subltree(ltree, start, end).

See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

ToString()

public override string ToString()

Returns

string
