The second template was pretty easy. All the date was inside the class definition : class ClassDefinition     {         public string ClassName;         public string NamespaceName;         public Dictionary<string,MethodDefinition[]> DictNameField_Methods;         public string version = ThisAssembly.Info.Version;         }     class MethodDefinition     {         public string Name { get; set; }         public string FieldName { get; set; }         public string ReturnType;         public…

Now I want to add templates to my controller  generators . But this feature changed the whole perspective about the project. Why ? Because a template do not apply just to a field – but to the whole controller. So instead of having attributes on the field [AutoActions] private readonly RepositoryWF repository; I will have…

The generation of controllers actions is now very rude: Http Method: if the method has no arguments,I assume GET . Else it is POST How I can handle pure full REST API generation ? How I can handle level 3 REST API – https://martinfowler.com/articles/richardsonMaturityModel.html  ? How I can handle any other models,like https://blog.ploeh.dk/2020/10/26/fit-urls/ What is…

In order to do templating,I have transform all text generation into classes Example: code.AppendLine($”{fieldName}.{ms.Name}({parametersCall});”); into class MethodDefinition { public string ClassName { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public Type ReturnType; public bool ReturnsVoid; //name,type public Dictionary<string,string> Parameters; } ( of course,this definition has changed multiple times…) Then I have added…

Logging Roslyn Code Generator: For each program that you develop,it is important ( if not vital ) to see logging. In the Roslyn  Analyzer / Code Generators,the diagnostics are logged with DiagnosticDescriptor and Diagnostic – think that you should see in the output console when compiling and this will become clear. More,the enum DiagnosticSeverity Enum…

First time I was thinking that is enough to do dotnet pack to make a Nuget package to deploy on NUGET. It was not. I realized that the generator was not starting at all! And it was not in the project Dependencies=>Analyzers . Time to read more from https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/blob/master/docs/features/source-generators.cookbook.md,I realized that I was wrong –…

Now with the implementation. First,I find all the fields declarations that had  the  Autonotify  if (syntaxNode is FieldDeclarationSyntax fieldDeclarationSyntax                         && fieldDeclarationSyntax.AttributeLists.Count > 0)             {                 foreach(var al in fieldDeclarationSyntax.AttributeLists)                 {                     var att = al.Attributes;                     foreach(var at in att)                     {                         var x = at.Name as IdentifierNameSyntax;                         if(autoActions.Contains(x.Identifier.Text))                         {                             CandidateFields.Add(fieldDeclarationSyntax);                             return;                         }                     }                 }                              } Second,I must…

How you generate actions in controllers ? Usually,you create a Business Logic class and then you expose via a controller in a WebAPI . And,if you are very careful,then you use the Skinny controllers concept  ( read more about it at 3 ways to keep your asp.net mvc controllers thin (jonhilton.net) ). So this implies…
