Enhanced Adapters

[hippiehunter]

While we’ve already implemented adapters, there is so much more we can do to extend their uses. Currently, adaptors apply only to filters, but we can further blur the line between operations provided by EF Core and custom code. This would entail implementing additional attributes to indicate that a particular field or collection needs to be expanded. In general, our design philosophy is to flatten OData queries into the sort of data structures that customers currently use to implement custom solutions. Supporting custom Synergy code is a very important part of Harmony Core; many of you have decades of very important business logic that you want to expose to the world. We would be doing you a disservice if the full OData query experience were not applicable to your important business logic. Adaptor enhancements will enable you to take full advantage of uniform OData query syntax, whether you’ve implemented an endpoint with custom code or are using the Harmony Core EF Provider.
