known conditions:

public class ListSearchImportFieldModel
{
    public string Field_Name { get; set; }
}

I need to implement the following method
Return properties of ListSearchImportFieldModel as properties of ExpandoObject function as follows:

enter image description here

The incoming object (ExpandoObject) may have 100 attributes, I only need a few attributes specified in the list (ListSearchImportFieldModel).

Who can help me out, thank you very much!

I tried to let chatgpt do it for me, but it didn’t work

  1. Chosen as BEST ANSWER
    public static Expression<Func<ExpandoObject, object>> CreateNameExpression(IEnumerable<ListSearchImportFieldModel> list){
       ParameterExpression expandoParam = Expression.Parameter(typeof(ExpandoObject), "expando");
    
    // Create a list to store the values of the Name property
    List<Expression> nameValueExpressions = new List<Expression>();
    
    // Iterate through each object in List<ListSearchImportFieldModel> and add the value of the Name property to the list
    foreach (ListSearchImportFieldModel keyModel in list)
    {
        // Create a property access expression representing the access to the Name property of the KeyModel object
        Expression namePropertyAccess = Expression.Property(Expression.Constant(keyModel), "Field_Name");
    
        // Convert the property access expression to Object type and add the result to the list
        Expression convertedNameValue = Expression.Convert(namePropertyAccess, typeof(object));
    
        // Add the Name property value to the list
        nameValueExpressions.Add(convertedNameValue);
    }
    
    // Create an array initialization expression to convert the array of Name property values to properties of ExpandoObject
    Expression arrayInitExpression = Expression.NewArrayInit(typeof(object), nameValueExpressions);
    
    // Create an ExpandoObject property initialization expression
    Expression expandoInitExpression = Expression.ListInit(
        Expression.New(typeof(ExpandoObject)),
        Expression.ElementInit(
            typeof(IDictionary<string, object>).GetMethod("Add"),
            Expression.Constant("NameValues"),
            arrayInitExpression
        )
    );
    
    // Create a Lambda expression with the ExpandoObject property initialization expression as the return value
    Expression<Func<ExpandoObject, object>> lambda = Expression.Lambda<Func<ExpandoObject, object>>(
        expandoInitExpression,
        expandoParam
    );
    
    return lambda;
    

    }


  2. One could convert ExpandoObject to Dictionary and conveniently create new ExpandoObject based on just created Ditionary by simply checking keys:

    var props = new[] {"a", "b"};
    var eo = new ExpandoObject();
    eo.TryAdd("a", "z");
    eo.TryAdd("b", "y");
    eo.TryAdd("c", "x");
    
    var dictFromEo = eo.ToDictionary(x => x.Key, x => x.Value);
    var newExpando = new ExpandoObject();
    Array.ForEach(props, prop =>
    {
        if(dictFromEo.TryGetValue(prop, out var value))
        {
            newExpando.TryAdd(prop, value);
        }
    });
