Generating similar ToString method for classes with many properties. It can also generate for external classes.

 

This is how you can use OptionToStringGenerator .

The code that you start with is

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
    <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
    <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Seekatar.OptionToStringGenerator" Version="0.3.1" />
  </ItemGroup>
	<PropertyGroup>
		<EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles>true</EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles>
		<CompilerGeneratedFilesOutputPath>$(BaseIntermediateOutputPath)\GX</CompilerGeneratedFilesOutputPath>
	</PropertyGroup>
</Project>

The code that you will use is

using Class2String;
using Seekatar.OptionToStringGenerator;
var p = new Person();
p.FirstName = "Andrei";
p.LastName = "Ignat";
p.Age = 50;
Console.WriteLine(p.OptionsToString());    

using Seekatar.OptionToStringGenerator;

namespace Class2String;

[OptionsToString]
internal class Person
{
    [OutputMask(PrefixLen = 3)]
    public string? FirstName { get; set; }
    [OutputMask(SuffixLen = 3)]
    public string? LastName { get; set; }

    public string FUllName => $"{FirstName} {LastName}";

    [OutputIgnore]
    public int Age { get; set; }
}

 

The code that is generated is

#nullable enable
using static Seekatar.Mask;
namespace Seekatar.OptionToStringGenerator
{
    public static partial class ClassExtensions
    {
        internal static string OptionsToString(this Class2String.Person o)
        {
            return $@"Class2String.Person:
  FirstName : {Format(o?.FirstName,prefixLen:3,suffixLen:0)}
  LastName  : {Format(o?.LastName,prefixLen:0,suffixLen:3)}
  FUllName  : {Format(o?.FUllName)}
";
        }
    }
}
