CodeGenerator

Hey @neozhu and @Bram1903

Issue fixed by cloning the other repo and building it after instructions from @neozhu

Still extremly happy with the project. I’m trying to use the codegenerator (yes i know it’s on different github repo). I’ve installed vs 2022 community edition and when I generate stuff for any class i’ve is that it isn’t compilable after.

In the DTO’s mapFrom is used and that isn’t the case in this source code.

Code it generates:

public class SoftwareDto:IMapFrom<Software>
{
    public void Mapping(Profile profile)
    {
        profile.CreateMap<Software, SoftwareDto>().ReverseMap();
    }
    // TODO: define data transfer object (DTO) fields, for example:
        [Description("Id")]
    public int Id {get;set;} 
    [Description("Name")]
    public string Name {get;set;} = String.Empty; 
    [Description("Description")]
    public string? Description {get;set;} 

}

ProductDTO in this repo is like:

// Licensed to the .NET Foundation under one or more agreements.
// The .NET Foundation licenses this file to you under the MIT license.

namespace myapp.Application.Features.Products.DTOs;

[Description("Products")]
public class ProductDto
{
    [Description("Id")] public int Id { get; set; }

    [Description("Product Name")] public string? Name { get; set; }

    [Description("Description")] public string? Description { get; set; }

    [Description("Unit")] public string? Unit { get; set; }

    [Description("Brand Name")] public string? Brand { get; set; }

    [Description("Price")] public decimal Price { get; set; }

    [Description("Pictures")] public List<ProductImage>? Pictures { get; set; }

    private class Mapping : Profile
    {
        public Mapping()
        {
            CreateMap<Product, ProductDto>().ReverseMap();
        }
    }
}

MapFrom is used in multiple files it generates so its a little bit of cleaning up to make use of it.

It’s still quite a headstart to use the generator. But could you take a look and see what’s wrong compared to project here?

I will set a action for Publish extension to Marketplace

Thank you but its also really cool to have access to the extension code, if I e.g. want to update generated UI template I can do that. It’s really cool, ty for learning me all this by having this repo public and answering questions
