RethinkDb.Driver is a ReQL driver for RethinkDB. This driver is closely ported from the official Java driver. Architecturally, both the Java driver and C# driver are very similar. This C# driver has some extra language features that add some expressiveness over the Java driver (such as anonymous type optional arguments).

This driver also aims for 100% API compatibility and ReQL completeness with the official drivers. This driver is considered a superset of features of the official Java driver. This driver also passes the same battery of ReQL unit tests as the official RethinkDB drivers.

NuGet Package RethinkDb.Driver

Install-Package RethinkDb.Driver

Independent commercial support and consulting are available for this community driver. To ensure best practices in .NET, proper driver usage, training, and critical bug fixes for the C# community driver contact Brian Chavez (twitter, email) for more information.

Developers can follow the examples found in the official ReQL documentation for the Java driver. In general, the C# driver and Java driver are both API compatible.

The C# driver supports additional integrated language ReQL features such as anonymous type arguments. The documentation for the extended C# driver features can be found here.
