Really Such a nice code

This doesn't work for Nullable Data types like datetime,int for operators <, > >=,Please suggest

How can we handle nullable column.?
age column is nullable and i want to search LIKE operator how can we search?
Example: Select * from User where age like '%10%'

Contains workaround for EF .net postgres:

Declare
private static MethodInfo? containsMethod = typeof(string).GetMethod("Contains", new Type[] { typeof(string) });
private static MethodInfo? toLowerMethod = typeof(string).GetMethod("ToLower", new Type[0]);

 Then 
 
  case FilterOperationEnum.Contains:
        
             var memeberToLower = Expression.Call(member, toLowerMethod);
             return Expression.Call(memeberToLower, containsMethod, actualValue);
        

 break;
