I have this Party class which contains an object data type coming from a service. It can contain two different member types for the Item property.
public class Party
{
public string DMVID {get; set;}
public object Item { get; set; }
}
and this DTO
public class PartyDTO
{
public string DMVID {get; set;}
public BusinessDTO BusinessItem { get; set; }
public IndividualDTO IndividualItem { get; set; }
}
How can I map the output of the Item to BusinessItem or IndividualItem.
I know this one would not work. Mapper.CreateMap<Party, PartyDTO>();
I don't know if conditional mapping can solve this or a resolver like this one.
Hey maybe this will help you out! I tested it, but i am using AutoMapper just for two days!
Allright here are your noted classes!!!
public class Party
{
public string DMVID { get; set; }
public object Item { get; set; }
}
public class PartyDTO
{
public string DMVID { get; set; }
public BuisnessDTO BusinessItem { get; set; }
public IndividualDTO IndividualItem { get; set; }
}
public class BuisnessDTO
{
public int Number
{
get;
set;
}
}
public class IndividualDTO
{
public string Message
{
get;
set;
}
}
and here your is the MapperConfiguration for this current scenario!
// Edit There was no need here for some conditions
AutoMapper.Mapper.CreateMap<Party, PartyDTO>()
.ForMember(dto => dto.BusinessItem, map =>
map.MapFrom(party => party.Item as BuisnessDTO);
)
.ForMember(dto => dto.IndividualItem, map =>
map.MapFrom(party => party.Item as IndividualDTO);
);
// And this is another way to achive the mapping in this scenario
AutoMapper.Mapper.CreateMap<PartyDTO, Party>()
.ForMember(party => party.Item, map => map.MapFrom( dto => (dto.BusinessItem != null) ? (dto.BusinessItem as object) : (dto.IndividualItem as object)));
And i created this sample for it!
Party firstParty = new Party()
{
DMVID = "something",
Item = new BuisnessDTO()
{
Number = 1
}
};
Party secondParty = new Party()
{
DMVID = "something",
Item = new IndividualDTO()
{
Message = "message"
}
};
PartyDTO dtoWithBuisness = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map<PartyDTO>(firstParty);
PartyDTO dtoWithIndividual = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map < PartyDTO>(secondParty);
Party afterParty = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map<Party>(dtoWithBuisness);
afterParty = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map < Party>(dtoWithIndividual);
Of course there are other possibility, but I think thats exactly what you wanted.

I have the below two Entities (one-to-many)
public class ApplicationCode
{
public Guid ApplicationId { get; set; }
public string? ApplicationAcrynom { get; set; }
public int ApplicationIndex { get; set; }
public IList<ApplicationCodeTranslation> ApplicationCodeTranslations { get; private set; } = new List<ApplicationCodeTranslation>();
}
public class ApplicationCodeTranslation
{
public Guid ApplicationCodeTranslationId { get; set; }
public Guid ApplicationId { get; set; }
public Guid LanguageId { get; set; }
public string? ApplicationDescription { get; set; }
public ApplicationCode ApplicationCode { get; set; } = null!;
}
The goal is to populate the below Dto where I need to filter one language from the child list (IList ApplicationCodeTranslations) in the ApplicationCode entity to get the description value
public class ApplicationCodeDto : IMapFrom<ApplicationCode>
{
public Guid ApplicationId { get; set; }
public string? ApplicationAcrynom { get; set; }
public string? ApplicationDescription { get; set; }
public void Mapping(Profile profile)
{
profile.CreateMap<ApplicationCode, ApplicationCodeDto>();
profile.CreateMap<ApplicationCodeTranslation, ApplicationCodeDto>();
}
}
I tried below, but it does not give the intended result.
It omits the ApplicationDescription (gives null), the whole .Include line is not translated to SQL at all.
var test1 = await _context.ApplicationCodes
.Include(e => e.ApplicationCodeTranslations.Where(l => l.LanguageId == _languageId))
.ProjectTo<ApplicationCodeDto>(_mapper.ConfigurationProvider)
.ToListAsync();
The other option I tried is
var test2 = await _context.ApplicationCodes
.SelectMany(e => e.ApplicationCodeTranslations)
.Where(l => l.LanguageId == _languageId)
.ProjectTo<ApplicationCodeDto>(_mapper.ConfigurationProvider)
.ToListAsync();
Which omits the properties of the CodeApplication and brings only the child list properties, as SelectMany only brings back the props of the child.
The only way I managed to make it work is below:
var test3 = await _context.ApplicationCodes
.SelectMany(e => e.ApplicationCodeTranslations.Where(l => l.LanguageId == _languageId),
(a,t) => new ApplicationCodeDto{
ApplicationId = a.ApplicationId,
ApplicationAcrynom = a.ApplicationAcrynom,
ApplicationDescription = t.ApplicationDescription,
})
.ToListAsync();
How can AutoMapper (v.11) help in this scenario to avoid mapping the DTO props manually?
Does ProjectTo work here?
Given I have 2 classes, Foo and Bar:
public class Foo
{
private readonly List<Bar> _bars = new List<Bar>();
public int Id { get; private set; }
public string Name { get; private set; }
public IEnumerable<Bar> Bars => _bars;
public void AddBar(Bar bar)
{
_bars.Add(bar);
}
public static Foo Create(string name)
{
return new Foo { Name = name };
}
private Foo() { }
}
public class Bar
{
public int Id { get; private set; }
public string Description { get; private set; }
public static Bar Create(string description)
{
return new Bar { Description = description };
}
}
With 2 corresponding DTOs,
public class BarDto
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
}
public class FooDto
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public List<BarDto> Bars { get; set; }
public FooDto()
{
Bars = new List<BarDto>();
}
}
And an AutoMapper/AutoMapper.Collection.EntityFrameworkCore setup of
var config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg =>
{
cfg.AddCollectionMappers();
cfg.UseEntityFrameworkCoreModel<DemoContext>();
cfg.CreateMap<BarDto, Bar>().EqualityComparison((src, dest) => src.Id == dest.Id);
cfg.CreateMap<FooDto, Foo>().ForMember(dest => dest.Bars, opt =>
{
opt.MapFrom(s => s.Bars);
opt.UseDestinationValue();
}).EqualityComparison((src, dest) => src.Id == dest.Id);
});
I have a use case whereby the incoming FooDto may contain inserted, appended, updated and deleted items in the Bars collection which I am attempting to handle by:
Looking up the existing entity from the database
Mapping changes from the DTO to the entity
Saving the changes to the database
However the following code produces an InvalidOperationException exception stating that "The instance of entity type 'Bar' cannot be tracked because another instance with the key value '{Id: 1}' is already being tracked. When attaching existing entities, ensure that only one entity instance with a given key value is attached"
var fooToUpdate = db.Foos.Include(_ => _.Bars).FirstOrDefault(_ => _.Id == fooDto.Id);
mapper.Map(fooDto, fooToUpdate);
db.SaveChanges();
My understanding was that becuase I am setting EqualityComparison for the BarDto -> Bar mapping it should update the tracked entity and the save operation should succeed becuase it was referencing the same object?
I am not sure if I'm going about this the wrong way or simply missing somthing in the configuration.
Update
It seems the problem I am facing may be related to this issue on github.
I'm trying to create map for automapper to let me map those entity
Entities
public class Entity
{
...
public List<NavigationEntity> Navs { get; set; }
}
public class NavigationEntity
{
public int Id { get; set; }
}
DTO that need to be create with entities
public class EntityDto
{
...
public List<int> NavIds { get; set; }
}
This doesnt seem's to do the job! What could do the job ?
CreateMap<Entity, EntityDto>().ReverseMap();
CreateMap<NavigationEntity, int>().ConstructUsing(x => x.Id);
EDIT
Tried to add
CreateMap< List < SystemsTags >, List< int >>();
but still it doesnt map
First of all, you should rename public List<NavigationEntity> Navs { get; set; } and public List<int> NavIds { get; set; } to the same name. If it is still not working try to also change ConstructUsing to ConvertUsing. And if you need the reverseMap of Entity to EntityDTO you should also add
CreateMap<int, NavigationEntity>().ConvertUsing(x => new NavigationEntity { Id = x });
final code
public class Entity
{
...
public List<NavigationEntity> Navs { get; set; }
}
public class NavigationEntity
{
public int Id { get; set; }
}
public class EntityDto
{
...
public List<int> Navs { get; set; }
}
...
CreateMap<Entity, EntityDto>().ReverseMap();
CreateMap<NavigationEntity, int>().ConvertUsing(x => x.Id);
CreateMap<int, NavigationEntity>().ConvertUsing(x => new NavigationEntity { Id = x });
Having an issue with version 6.1.1. In the below, the result of the reverse map still has the Company object populated. Per this post, which shows what I am doing below, except they are ignoring a property, and I'm ignoring a complex object.
What am I missing?
CreateMap<Item, ItemViewModel>(MemberList.Destination)
.ReverseMap()
.ForMember(x => x.Company, x => x.Ignore())
;
With AutoMapper 6.1 you could use ForPath instead ForMember to ignore complex objects.
See How to ignore property with ReverseMap for further information.
I see not what is wrong, but here is a running sample:
namespace AutomapperTest2
{
internal class Program
{
#region Methods
private static void Main(string[] args)
{
// Configure the mappings
Mapper.Initialize(cfg =>
{
cfg.CreateMap<ApplicantEducation, ApplicantEducationVM>();
cfg.CreateMap<Applicant, ApplicantVM>().ReverseMap()
.ForMember(x => x.Education, x => x.Ignore());
});
var config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg => cfg.CreateMissingTypeMaps = true);
var mapper = config.CreateMapper();
Applicant ap = new Applicant
{
Name = "its me",
Education =
new ApplicantEducation
{
SomeInt = 10,
SomeString = "sampleString"
}
};
// Map
ApplicantVM apVm = Mapper.Map<Applicant, ApplicantVM>(ap);
Applicant apBack = Mapper.Map<ApplicantVM, Applicant>(apVm);
}
#endregion
}
/// Your source classes
public class Applicant
{
public ApplicantEducation Education { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public class ApplicantEducation
{
public int SomeInt { get; set; }
public string SomeString { get; set; }
}
// Your VM classes
public class ApplicantVM
{
public string Description { get; set; }
public ApplicantEducationVM Education { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public class ApplicantEducationVM
{
public int SomeInt { get; set; }
public string SomeString { get; set; }
}
}
}
Here is what I have where I hope someone can help us out:
class Source
{
string name { get; set; }
Inner { get; set; }
}
class Inner
{
Col A { get; set; }
Col B { get; set; }
}
class Col : IList<ClassX>, IEnunmerable<ClassX>
I need to map class Source to a destination type which has:
class Dest
{
string name { get; set; }
IList<ClassY> A { get; set;}
IList<ClassY> B { get; set;}
}
Now, ClassX and class ClassY share the same properties. ClassY class has a subset of the ClassX primitive properties with the exact same names and types.
Tried all kinds of mappings. Just the ClassX to ClassY map, with the collections, without and with any mapping get no mapping found between or missing configuration between Source and Dest
AutoMapper.Mapper.Map<Source, Dest>(src);
Can someone help me out with the mapping? Thanks in advance.
This question is a few months old, but if you're still looking for an answer, this is what I tried that worked:
class Source
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public Inner Inner { get; set; }
}
class Inner
{
public Col A { get; set; }
public Col B { get; set; }
}
class Col : List<ClassX> { }
class ClassX
{
public int Index { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public ClassX() : this(0, "") { }
public ClassX(int index, string name)
{
this.Index = index;
this.Name = name;
}
}
class ClassY
{
public int Index { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public ClassY() : this(0, "") { }
public ClassY(int index, string name)
{
this.Index = index;
this.Name = name;
}
}
class Dest
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public List<ClassY> A { get; set; }
public List<ClassY> B { get; set; }
}
[TestMethod]
public void ComplexTest()
{
Mapper.CreateMap<Source, Dest>()
.ForMember(dest => dest.A, config => config.MapFrom(src => src.Inner.A))
.ForMember(dest => dest.B, config => config.MapFrom(src => src.Inner.B));
Mapper.CreateMap<ClassX, ClassY>();
Source source = new Source
{
Name = "Source",
Inner = new Inner
{
A = new Col
{
new ClassX(1, "First"),
new ClassX(2, "Second"),
new ClassX(3, "Third"),
new ClassX(4, "Fourth"),
},
B = new Col
{
new ClassX(5, "Fifth"),
new ClassX(6, "Sixth"),
new ClassX(7, "Seventh"),
new ClassX(8, "Eighth"),
},
}
};
Dest destination = Mapper.Map<Source, Dest>(source);
Assert.AreEqual(source.Name, destination.Name);
Assert.AreEqual(source.Inner.A.Count, destination.A.Count);
Assert.AreEqual(source.Inner.B.Count, destination.B.Count);
Assert.AreEqual(source.Inner.A[0].Name, destination.A[0].Name);
Assert.AreEqual(source.Inner.B[0].Name, destination.B[0].Name);
}
I didn't go too in-depth with my Asserts, so there may be something I missed, but they appear to be mapped properly.
