How to scan and auto-configure profiles in AutoMapper?


Is there any way to auto-configue Automapper to scan for all profiles in namespace/assembly? What I would like to do is to add mapping profiles to AutoMapper from given assembly filtered by given interface, something like Scan Conventions in StructureMap:

    public static void Configure()
    {
        ObjectFactory.Initialize(x =>
            {
                // Scan Assembly
                x.Scan(
                    scanner =>
                    {
                        scanner.TheCallingAssembly();
                        scanner.Convention<MyCustomConvention>();
                        scanner.WithDefaultConventions();
                    });

                // Add Registries
                x.AddRegistry(new SomeRegistry());
            });

        Debug.WriteLine(ObjectFactory.WhatDoIHave());
    }

public class MyCustomConvention : IRegistrationConvention
{
    public void Process(Type type, Registry registry)
    {
        if (!type.CanBeCastTo(typeof(IMyType)))
        {
            return;
        }

        string name = type.Name.Replace("SomeRubishName", String.Empty);
        registry.AddType(typeof(IMyType), type, name);            
    }

I've tried to use SelfConfigure but can't find any documentation on how to use it to filter out profiles:

    public static void Configure()
    {
        Mapper.Initialize(x =>
                              {
                                  // My Custom profile
                                  x.AddProfile<MyMappingProfile>();

                                  // Scan Assembly
                                  x.SelfConfigure(Assembly.GetCallingAssembly());
                              });
    }

Another question is how can I report all maps/profiles already initialized (something like ObjectFactory.WhatDoIHave() in StructureMap)?


Solution

  • I found this post while searching as well, but this is how I implemented an auto mapping scheme:

    public class MyCustomMap : Profile
    {
        protected override void Configure()
        {
            CreateMap<MyCustomViewModel, MyCustomObject>()
                .ForMember(dest => dest.Phone,
                            opt => opt.MapFrom(
                            src => src.PhoneAreaCode + src.PhoneFirstThree + src.PhoneLastFour));
        }
    }
    
    public static class AutoMapperConfiguration
    {
        public static void Configure()
        {
            Mapper.Initialize(x => GetConfiguration(Mapper.Configuration));
        }
    
        private static void GetConfiguration(IConfiguration configuration)
        {
            var profiles = typeof(MyCustomMap).Assembly.GetTypes().Where(x => typeof(Profile).IsAssignableFrom(x));
            foreach (var profile in profiles)
            {
                configuration.AddProfile(Activator.CreateInstance(profile) as Profile);
            }
        }
    }
    

    So when my application starts, all I call is

    AutoMapperConfiguration.Configure(); 
    

    And all my maps are registered.
