MapZilla is a open-source derivate work of AutoMapper version 14.0.0
MapZilla is a simple little library built to solve a deceptively complex problem - getting rid of code that mapped one object to another. This type of code is rather dreary and boring to write, so why not invent a tool to do it for us?
This is the main repository for MapZilla, but there's more:
- Collection Extensions
- Expression Mapping
- EF6 Extensions
- IDataReader/Record Extensions
- Enum Extensions
First, configure MapZilla to know what types you want to map, in the startup of your application:
var configuration = new MapperConfiguration(cfg =>
{
cfg.CreateMap<Foo, FooDto>();
cfg.CreateMap<Bar, BarDto>();
});
// only during development, validate your mappings; remove it before release
#if DEBUG
configuration.AssertConfigurationIsValid();
#endif
// use DI (http://docs.MapZilla.org/en/latest/Dependency-injection.html) or create the mapper yourself
var mapper = configuration.CreateMapper();Then in your application code, execute the mappings:
var fooDto = mapper.Map<FooDto>(foo);
var barDto = mapper.Map<BarDto>(bar);Check out the getting started guide. When you're done there, the wiki goes in to the nitty-gritty details. If you have questions, you can post them to Stack Overflow or in our Gitter.
First, install NuGet. Then, install MapZilla from the package manager console:
PM> Install-Package MapZilla
Or from the .NET CLI as:
dotnet add package MapZilla
First check if it's already fixed by trying the MyGet build.
You might want to know exactly what your mapping does at runtime.
If you're still running into problems, file an issue above.
