Getting started

Initialize

using (IDocumentStore store = new DocumentStore
{
 Urls = new[] // URL to the Server,
 { // or list of URLs 
 "http://live-test.ravendb.net" // to all Cluster Servers (Nodes)
 },
 Database = "Northwind", // Default database that DocumentStore will interact with
 Conventions = { } // DocumentStore customizations
})
{
 store.Initialize(); // Each DocumentStore needs to be initialized before use.
 // This process establishes the connection with the Server
 // and downloads various configurations
 // e.g. cluster topology or client configuration
}

Store documents

using (IDocumentSession session = store.OpenSession()) // Open a session for a default 'Database'
{
 Category category = new Category
 {
 Name = "Database Category"
 };

 session.Store(category); // Assign an 'Id' and collection (Categories)
 // and start tracking an entity

 Product product = new Product
 {
 Name = "RavenDB Database",
 Category = category.Id,
 UnitsInStock = 10
 };

 session.Store(product); // Assign an 'Id' and collection (Products)
 // and start tracking an entity

 session.SaveChanges(); // Send to the Server
 // one request processed in one transaction
}

Query

using (IDocumentSession session = store.OpenSession()) // Open a session for a default 'Database'
{
 List<string> productNames = session
 .Query<Product>() // Query for Products
 .Where(x => x.UnitsInStock > 5) // Filter
 .Skip(0).Take(10) // Page
 .Select(x => x.Name) // Project
 .ToList(); // Materialize query
}
