What kind of orm is dapper micro orm?


Asked by Bryan Hubbard on Dec 09, 2021 FAQ



Dapper is a micro ORM. It is a simple object mapper framework that helps map the native query output to a model class. This framework is built by the StackOverflow team and released as open-source. This tool is available on NuGet Packages
Moreover,
Dapper is a light-weight ORM (Object Relational Mapping) tool, which helps the developers to map their database with POCO (Plain Old CLR Object) /MODEL. Dapper is free and open source.
One may also ask, I've looked at a number of Micro-ORMs, and decided to focus in on both PetaPoco and Dapper. They both have comparable speed. But of the two, it's my opinion that Dapper is more mature, has more complete test coverage, better supports LINQ, leaves your POCO's alone (important) and has better support for stored procedures.
In addition,
What's Dapper? Dapper is a simple object mapper for.NET and owns the title of King of Micro ORM in terms of speed and is virtually as fast as using a raw ADO.NET data reader. An ORM is an Object Relational Mapper, which is responsible for mapping between database and programming language.
In this manner,
The ObjectDumper class in the project is a holdover from the Microsoft LINQ Utilities and is simply used to output the properties of a class to the console. You can execute a query and map it to an IEnumerable of your type, or to a dynamic list if no type is provided.
