A .NET Standard library that provides a generic builder pattern capable of creating simple to complex object graphs. Designed to be used for unit testing.
To install using the NuGet package manager console within Visual Studio, run this command:
Install-Package BitWiseBots.FluentBuilders
Or to install using the .NET Core CLI from the command prompt:
dotnet add package BitWiseBots.FluentBuilders
Lets say you have a class that looks something like:
public class Person
{
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
}
You would create a builder, set its properties, and construct the final object like this:
BuilderFactory.Create<Person>
.With(p => p.FirstName, "John")
.With(p => p.LastName, "Doe")
.Build()
This only scratches the surface of what FluentBuilders can accomplish. If you have more complex objects or even graphs of objects check out our in depth usage guides here.
