Automappe.Extensions

The scope of this library is to have something that I use in all my projects. I don't want to copy it on any new project, so I decided to put it on NuGet.

If you like it, feel free to use it, otherwise if it hurts you because you don't like to have MapTo<>() extension method of the type object feel free to ignore this library without stress me :)

Moreover, if you think it is useful and you want to add some features, send your amazing PR.

Where can I get it?

First, install NuGet. Then, install AutoMapper.Extensions from the package manager console:

PM> Install-Package AutoMapper.Extensions

How do I get started?

Single instance:

var myInstance = new User();
myInstance.Firstname = "Ugo";
myInstance.Lastname = "Lattanzi";
myInstance.Email = "imperugo@gmail.com";

var myDto = myInstance.MapTo<UserDto>();

Existing instance:

var myInstance = new User();
myInstance.Firstname = "Ugo";
myInstance.Lastname = "Lattanzi";
myInstance.Email = "imperugo@gmail.com";

var myDto = new UserDto();

myInstance.MapToInstance(myDto);

Collection:

var myList = new List<User>();
myList.Add(new User(){
    Firstname = "Ugo",
    Lastname = "Lattanzi",
    Email = "imperugo@gmail.com"
});

myList.Add(new User(){
    Firstname = "Mario",
    Lastname = "Rossi",
    Email = "xxx@yyy.com"
});

var myDtoList = myList.MapTo<UserDto>();

Finally I've added some converts for:

DateTimeOffset => DateTime
Uri => String
