AutoMapper 5 - AutoScanning and integration with ABP...

Moving from ABP 0.9.7/ AutoMapper 4.21 to ABP 1.x / AutoMapper 5.1.x

We want to use the AutoMapper scanning feature to pick up all our profiles viz:

Mapper.Initialize(cfg => { cfg.AddProfiles("MyNameSpace.Assembly1", "MyOtherNameSpace.Assembly1", ....); 

So I am guessing I put this in the application module PostInitialize as per #1311.

1. Is there anything else I need to do?
2. How does ABP integrate with this considering the single call to Initialize() which spins up AutoMapper?

If ABP is initialized in your project, then do all mappings inside Configuration.Modules.AbpAutoMapper().Configurators.Add(...). You can call other non-abp dlls from here, no problem. If ABP is not initialized, then no problem, it will not call Mapper.Initialize at all.

I’m not using AssertConfigurationIsValid since it has very strict rules and enforces custom mappings. If you want to use it, I suggest you to do it in your PostInitialize method:

IocManager.Resolve<IMapper>().ConfigurationProvider.AssertConfigurationIsValid();
