Description

I have stored procedures with input and output parameters. I have separate classes for input and output classes. So, I want to create Dynamic Parameters using template objects instead of adding each property.

For Eg:

public class StudentInput {
 public StudentInput() {
   this.StudentId = 1;
 }
 public int StudentId {get; set}
}

public class StudentOutput {
 public string StudentName {get; set;}
 public string FavSubject {get; set;}
 public int Grade {get; set;}
 public int YearOfJoining {get; set;}
}

I have a stored procedure [SP_GetStudentData] that takes StudentId as input and returns StudentName, FavSubject, Grade and YearOfJoining.

Using Dapper, I wrote the following code.

DynamicParameters ip = new DynamicParameters(new StudentInput());
DynamicParameters op = new DynamicParameters(new StudentOutput());

ip.AddDynamicParameters(op); 
 **_// Here is the question. How do I tell Dapper that op is a output parameters object? How do I add ParameterDirection output to each of the properties in this object?_**

SqlMapper.ExecuteSP(connection, SP_GetStudentData, ip, CommandType.StoredProcedure)

Research direction

The issue names DynamicParameters, AddDynamicParameters, and SqlMapper.ExecuteSP as the entry points; start by tracing how template properties become parameters and how stored procedures are executed. Compare the StudentInput and StudentOutput examples and verify completion against the SP_GetStudentData scenario, including output-parameter direction for each output property.
