Setup for Visual Studio

via Annotations

Pros: Easy to use, very quick to implement

Cons: Attributes are part of the build, annotations assembly has to be published and loaded

Install nuget package KY.Generator

Decorate a class with one of our generate attributes

using KY.Generator;
...
[Generate("Output")]
internal class TypeToRead
{
  public string Property { get; set; }
}

See the complete showcase

See documentation for more details

via Fluent API

Pros: generator code is completely separated and is not published, more actions available than via annotations

Cons: the initial setup is not so easy as with annotations

Create a new class library project

Install nuget package KY.Generator.Fluent

Derive a class from GeneratorFluentMain, override the execute method and use the Read method

public class GeneratorMain : GeneratorFluentMain
{
    public override void Execute()
    {
        this.Read()
            .FromType<Types>()
            .Write()
            .AngularModels().OutputPath("Output/Models").SkipHeader()
            .AngularServices().OutputPath("Output/Services").SkipHeader();
    }
}
