Use LINQ extension methods for my class

I have a repository class, which as a method FromStore<TEntity>, as shown below:

IQueryable<TEntity> FromStore<TEntity>() where TEntity : class;

Using this, I can do things like:

MyRepository.FromStore<DatabaseModel>().SingleOrDefault(dm => dm.Id = Id);

Now I think it’s stupid to make class call users FromStorewhen I could provide the SingleOrDefault method directly (you just need to specify a parameter of the type type and not its output, as is usually the case).

So, I wrote a method as shown below:

public TEntity SingleOrDefault<TEntity>(Expression<Func<TEntity, bool>> filter) where TEntity : class
{
    return FromStore<TEntity>().SingleOrDefault(filter);
}

Fine! Now I can do it:

MyRepository.SingleOrDefault<DatabaseModel>(dm => dm.Id = Id);

However, I want to do the same for all linq extension methods.
The only way I can do this now is to create similar wrapper methods for my class for each linq method.

It seems stupid, of course, the best way?

, - Repository , linq, IQueriable<T>. , T.

- linq , IQueryable<T> T?
