6.7 MVVM Pattern with CollectionView

⚠️ Important: AvaloniaUI does not support WPF's CollectionViewSource.

Project Structure

The templates folder contains a.NET 9 AvaloniaUI project example.

In AvaloniaUI, use the following approaches:

6.7.1 Using DataGridCollectionView (Recommended)

// NuGet: Avalonia.Controls.DataGrid
// Service Layer
namespace MyApp.Services;

using Avalonia.Controls;

public sealed class MemberCollectionService
{
    private ObservableCollection<Member> Source { get; } = [];

    // Returns DataGridCollectionView
    public IEnumerable CreateView(Predicate<Member>? filter = null)
    {
        var view = new DataGridCollectionView(Source);

        if (filter is not null)
        {
            view.Filter = item => filter((Member)item);
        }

        return view;
    }

    public void Add(Member item) => Source.Add(item);
    public void Remove(Member? item) { if (item is not null) Source.Remove(item); }
    public void Clear() => Source.Clear();
}

6.7.2 Using ReactiveUI (Alternative)

// NuGet: ReactiveUI.Avalonia
namespace MyApp.ViewModels;

using ReactiveUI;
using DynamicData;

public sealed class MainViewModel : ReactiveObject
{
    private readonly SourceList<Member> _sourceList = new();
    private readonly ReadOnlyObservableCollection<Member> _members;

    public ReadOnlyObservableCollection<Member> Members => _members;

    public MainViewModel()
    {
        _sourceList
            .Connect()
            .Filter(m => m.IsActive) // Filtering
            .Sort(SortExpressionComparer<Member>.Ascending(m => m.Name)) // Sorting
            .Bind(out _members)
            .Subscribe();
    }

    public void AddMember(Member member) => _sourceList.Add(member);
    public void RemoveMember(Member member) => _sourceList.Remove(member);
}
