Problem retrieving results from an index in an embedded RavenDB - indexing

Question

I have an index that works great when I query it using the .Net client API with a server based RavenDb.
However, if I change the RavenDb to an embedded type then I cannot query the index directly unless I first query the document that the index uses.
For instance if I have the following document objects which reside as separate collections in the RavenDb:
private class TestParentDocument
{
public string Id { get { return GetType().Name + "/" + AggregateRootId; } }
public Guid AggregateRootId { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
}
private class TestChildProductFlagDocument
{
public string TestParentDocumentId { get; set; }
public short ProductFlagTypeId { get; set; }
}
Then I have the following object which represents the output document that the index maps to:
private class TestJoinIndexOutput
{
public string TestParentDocumentId { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public short ProductFlagTypeId { get; set; }
}
Here is the index definition:
private class TestJoinIndex : AbstractIndexCreationTask<TestChildProductFlagDocument, TestJoinIndexOutput>
{
public TestJoinIndex()
{
Map = docs => from doc in docs
select new
{
TestParentDocumentId = doc.TestParentDocumentId,
ProductFlagTypeId = doc.ProductFlagTypeId
};
TransformResults = (database, results) =>
from result in results
let parentDoc = database.Load<TestParentDocument>(result.TestParentDocumentId)
select new
{
TestParentDocumentId = result.TestParentDocumentId,
ProductFlagTypeId = result.ProductFlagTypeId,
Name = parentDoc.Name
};
}
My code to call the index looks like so:
var theJoinIndexes = ravenSession.Query<TestJoinIndexOutput, TestJoinIndex>().ToList();
This returns almost immediately and fails unless I do the following:
var theParentDocuments = ravenSession.Query<TestParentDocument>().ToList();
var theJoinIndexes = ravenSession.Query<TestJoinIndexOutput, TestJoinIndex>().ToList();
My Ravendb embedded definition looks like so:
docStore = new EmbeddableDocumentStore
{
UseEmbeddedHttpServer = false,
RunInMemory = true
};
docStore.Configuration.Port = 7777;
docStore.Initialize();
IndexCreation.CreateIndexes(typeof(TestJoinIndex).Assembly, docstore);

You aren't waiting for indexing to complete, call WaitForNonStaleResultsAsOfNow
