[QUERY] Recommendations to replace IQueryable functionality?

Query/Question I’m looking at upgrading from older versions of the SDK, but I see that this version doesn’t include IQueryable support. That’s fine for simple queries, but I have a number of places in my code where we have something to the effect of:

var query = CreateQuery<MyEntity>();
query = query.Where(e => e.PartitionKey == "whatever");

if (startDate.HasValue)
{
    query = query.Where(e => e.CreatedDate >= startDate.Value);
}

if (endDate.HasValue)
{
    query = query.Where(e => e.CreatedDate <= endDate.Value);
}

var result = await query.ExecuteSegmentedAsync();

If I understand the new library correctly, the only way I could replicate this kind of code is to build the OData strings myself. Is there a better way to handle this? Would you consider including some kind of query builder, even if it’s not based on IQueryable?

Environment:

• Name and version of the Library package used: Azure.Data.Tables 12.2.0
• Hosting platform or OS and .NET runtime version (dotnet --info output for .NET Core projects): Azure Cloud Services, .NET Framework 4.7.2
• IDE and version : Visual Studio
