看看这个例子

class Person
{
    public int ID { get; set; }
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    public string Phone { get; set; }
}

class Pet
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public Person Owner { get; set; }
}

public static void LeftOuterJoinExample()
{
    Person magnus = new Person {ID = 1, FirstName = "Magnus", LastName = "Hedlund"};
    Person terry = new Person {ID = 2, FirstName = "Terry", LastName = "Adams"};
    Person charlotte = new Person {ID = 3, FirstName = "Charlotte", LastName = "Weiss"};
    Person arlene = new Person {ID = 4, FirstName = "Arlene", LastName = "Huff"};

    Pet barley = new Pet {Name = "Barley", Owner = terry};
    Pet boots = new Pet {Name = "Boots", Owner = terry};
    Pet whiskers = new Pet {Name = "Whiskers", Owner = charlotte};
    Pet bluemoon = new Pet {Name = "Blue Moon", Owner = terry};
    Pet daisy = new Pet {Name = "Daisy", Owner = magnus};

    // Create two lists.
    List<Person> people = new List<Person> {magnus, terry, charlotte, arlene};
    List<Pet> pets = new List<Pet> {barley, boots, whiskers, bluemoon, daisy};

    var query = from person in people
        where person.ID == 4
        join pet in pets on person equals pet.Owner  into personpets
        from petOrNull in personpets.DefaultIfEmpty()
        select new { Person=person, Pet = petOrNull}; 



    foreach (var v in query )
    {
        Console.WriteLine("{0,-15}{1}", v.Person.FirstName + ":", (v.Pet == null ? "Does not Exist" : v.Pet.Name));
    }
}

// This code produces the following output:
//
// Magnus:        Daisy
// Terry:         Barley
// Terry:         Boots
// Terry:         Blue Moon
// Charlotte:     Whiskers
// Arlene:

现在你可以从左边包含元素，即使那个元素在右边没有匹配，在我们的例子中，我们检索了Arlene，即使他在右边没有匹配

如何:执行左外连接(c#编程指南)

简单的方法是使用Let关键字。这对我很有用。

from AItem in Db.A
Let BItem = Db.B.Where(x => x.id == AItem.id ).FirstOrDefault() 
Where SomeCondition
Select new YourViewModel
{
    X1 = AItem.a,
    X2 = AItem.b,
    X3 = BItem.c
}

这是一个模拟左连接。如果B表中的每一项与A表中的每一项都不匹配，BItem返回null

看一下这个例子。 这个查询应该工作:

var leftFinal = from left in lefts
                join right in rights on left equals right.Left into leftRights
                from leftRight in leftRights.DefaultIfEmpty()
                select new { LeftId = left.Id, RightId = left.Key==leftRight.Key ? leftRight.Id : 0 };

这是我使用的LeftJoin实现。注意，resultSelector表达式接受2个参数:来自连接两端的一个实例。在我看到的大多数其他实现中，结果选择器只接受一个参数，这是一个具有左/右或外部/内部属性的“连接模型”。我更喜欢这个实现，因为它具有与内置Join方法相同的方法签名。它也适用于IQueryables和EF。

 var results = DbContext.Categories
      .LeftJoin(
            DbContext.Products, c => c.Id, p => p.CategoryId,
            (c, p) => new { Category = c, ProductName = p == null ? "(No Products)" : p.ProductName })
      .ToList();

public static class QueryableExtensions
{
    public static IQueryable<TResult> LeftJoin<TOuter, TInner, TKey, TResult>(
           this IQueryable<TOuter> outer, 
           IEnumerable<TInner> inner, Expression<Func<TOuter, TKey>> outerKeySelector, 
           Expression<Func<TInner, TKey>> innerKeySelector, 
           Expression<Func<TOuter, TInner, TResult>> resultSelector)
    {
        var query = outer
            .GroupJoin(inner, outerKeySelector, innerKeySelector, (o, i) => new { o, i })
            .SelectMany(o => o.i.DefaultIfEmpty(), (x, i) => new { x.o, i });
        return ApplySelector(query, x => x.o, x => x.i, resultSelector);
    }

    private static IQueryable<TResult> ApplySelector<TSource, TOuter, TInner, TResult>(
        IQueryable<TSource> source,
        Expression<Func<TSource, TOuter>> outerProperty,
        Expression<Func<TSource, TInner>> innerProperty,
        Expression<Func<TOuter, TInner, TResult>> resultSelector)
    {
        var p = Expression.Parameter(typeof(TSource), $"param_{Guid.NewGuid()}".Replace("-", string.Empty));
        Expression body = resultSelector?.Body
            .ReplaceParameter(resultSelector.Parameters[0], outerProperty.Body.ReplaceParameter(outerProperty.Parameters[0], p))
            .ReplaceParameter(resultSelector.Parameters[1], innerProperty.Body.ReplaceParameter(innerProperty.Parameters[0], p));
        var selector = Expression.Lambda<Func<TSource, TResult>>(body, p);
        return source.Select(selector);
    }
}

public static class ExpressionExtensions
{
    public static Expression ReplaceParameter(this Expression source, ParameterExpression toReplace, Expression newExpression)
        => new ReplaceParameterExpressionVisitor(toReplace, newExpression).Visit(source);
}

public class ReplaceParameterExpressionVisitor : ExpressionVisitor
{
    public ReplaceParameterExpressionVisitor(ParameterExpression toReplace, Expression replacement)
    {
        this.ToReplace = toReplace;
        this.Replacement = replacement;
    }

    public ParameterExpression ToReplace { get; }
    public Expression Replacement { get; }
    protected override Expression VisitParameter(ParameterExpression node)
        => (node == ToReplace) ? Replacement : base.VisitParameter(node);
}

查询:

        var petOwners =
            from person in People
            join pet in Pets
            on new
            {
                person.Id,
                person.Age,
            }
            equals new
            {
                pet.Id,
                Age = pet.Age * 2, // owner is twice age of pet
            }
            into pets
            from pet in pets.DefaultIfEmpty()
            select new PetOwner
            {
                Person = person,
                Pet = pet,
            };

λ:

        var petOwners = People.GroupJoin(
            Pets,
            person => new { person.Id, person.Age },
            pet => new { pet.Id, Age = pet.Age * 2 },
            (person, pet) => new
            {
                Person = person,
                Pets = pet,
            }).SelectMany(
            pet => pet.Pets.DefaultIfEmpty(),
            (people, pet) => new
            {
                people.Person,
                Pet = pet,
            });

如“Perform left outer joins”中所述:

var q =
    from c in categories
    join pt in products on c.Category equals pt.Category into ps_jointable
    from p in ps_jointable.DefaultIfEmpty()
    select new { Category = c, ProductName = p == null ? "(No products)" : p.ProductName };
