Based on the original .NET AutoMapper, keeping a workaround for the static mapping methods which were removed with v9.
NuGet: https://www.nuget.org/packages/DXSdata.AutoMapper
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using AutoMapper.DXSdata;
namespace MapperTest
{
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
//If DB classes reside in other namespace, assembly etc.
//Mapper.Assembly = nameof(MyAlternativeDbContext);
//For more complex types, e.g nested custom objects which AutoMapper cannot determine automatically
//As an alternative, you can also use Attribute Mapping: https://docs.automapper.org/en/latest/Attribute-mapping.html
//Mapper.CustomMappings.Add(typeof(MyCustomSubclass), typeof(MyCustomSubclassViewModel)); //or:
//Mapper.CustomMappings.Add<MyCustomSubclass, MyCustomSubclassViewModel>();
//Optional advanced configuration; see below
Mapper.OnConfiguring += AdvancedConf;
var list1 = new List<MyClass1>
{
new MyClass1(),
new MyClass1(),
new MyClass1()
};
var dto = list1.Map<List<MyClass2>>();
var dto2 = Mapper.Map<List<MyClass2>>(list1);
var dto3 = Mapper.Map<MyClass2[]>(list1);
var dto4 = list1.MapL<MyClass2>(); //for convenience
var dto5 = Mapper.MapL<MyClass2>(list1);
var dto6 = list1.AsQueryable().ProjectTo<List<MyClass2>>(); //for DB queries
var dto7 = Mapper.ProjectTo<List<MyClass2>>(list1.AsQueryable());
}
static void AdvancedConf(object sender, MapperConfiguringEventArgs e)
{
//e.Configuration.CreateMap<MyViewModel, My>().ForMember(my => my.MyEquipment, opt => opt.MapFrom(dto => MyUnflattenMethod<MyEquipment>(dto.Id, dto.Equipment)));
//e.Configuration.CreateMap<My, MyViewModel>().ForMember(dto => dto.Equipment, opt => opt.MapFrom(my => MyFlattenMethod(my.MyEquipment)));
}
}
}
If you use nested objects, like MyClass1Object.MyClass2Object.Var1, please use the approach "Attribute Mapping". Otherwise you will get a "missing maps" error. You can also use Mapper.CustomMappings (see example above).
If the attributed classes are not within your default project assembly, please set Mapper.Assembly manually.
E.g. if your DB context classes reside in another project called MyContext, set:
Mapper.Assembly = nameof(MyContext);
