Usage

Scans assemblies and:

  1. adds profiles to mapping configuration
  2. adds implementations of ITypeConverter, IValueConverter, IValueResolver, IMemberValueResolver,IMappingAction instances as transient to the container.

There are few options to use with Container instance:

  1. Marker type from assembly which will be scanned
    container.AddAutoMapper(typeof(MyMapper), type2 /*, ...*/);
  1. List of assemblies which will be scanned.

Below is sample for scanning assemblies from some solution.

```cs
[ExcludeFromCodeCoverage]
public static class AutoMapperConfigurator
{
    private const string NamespacePrefix = "YourNamespace";

    public static void Configure(Container container)
    {
        var loadedAssemblies = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies().ToList();
        var assemblies = new List<Assembly>();
        var mainAssembly = typeof(AutoMapperConfigurator).Assembly;
        var refAssemblies = mainAssembly.GetReferencedAssemblies();
        foreach (var assemblyName in refAssemblies
            .Where(a => a.FullName.StartsWith(NamespacePrefix, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)))
            {
                var assembly = loadedAssemblies.Find(l => l.FullName == assemblyName.FullName)
                    ?? AppDomain.CurrentDomain.Load(assemblyName);
                assemblies.Add(assembly);
            }
        container.AddAutoMapper(assemblies);
    }
}

This registers AutoMapper:

- `MapperConfiguration` - As a singleton
- `IMapper` - As a singleton
- `ITypeConverter` instances as transient
- `IValueConverter` instances as transient
- `IValueResolver` instances as transient
- `IMemberValueResolver` instances as transient
- `IMappingAction` instances as transient

Mapping configuration is static as it is the root object that can create an `IMapper`.

Mapper instance are registered as singleton. You can configure this with the `Lifestyle` parameter. Be careful changing this, as `Mapper` takes a dependency on a factory method to instantiate the other extensions.

## Advanced usage

### Setting up custom `IMapper` instance and marker type from assembly for unit testing (Moq sample)

   ```cs
    var testMapper = new Mock<IMapper>();
    container.AddAutoMapper(
        cfg =>
        {
            cfg.Using(() => testMapper.Object);
            cfg.WithMapperAssemblyMarkerTypes(typeof(MyMarkerType));
        });

Setting up custom IMapper implementation and marker type from assembly

    container.AddAutoMapper(
        cfg =>
        {
            cfg.Using<MyCustomMapper>();
            cfg.WithMapperAssemblyMarkerTypes(typeof(MyMarkerType));
        });

Setting up custom IMapper implementation and assemblies to scan

    container.AddAutoMapper(
        cfg =>
        {
            cfg.Using<MyCustomMapper>();
            cfg.WithAssembliesToScan(assemblies);
        });

Setting assemblies to scan and different lifetime for IMapper implementation

    container.AddAutoMapper(
        cfg =>
        {
            cfg.WithAssembliesToScan(assemblies);
            cfg.AsScoped();
        });

Setting configuration for MapperConfigurationExpression

    container.AddAutoMapper(
        cfg =>
        {
            cfg.WithAssembliesToScan(assemblies);
            cfg.AsScoped();
            cfg.WithMapperConfigurationExpressionAction(
                        (
                            container1,
                            expression) => expression.CreateMap<Foo, Bar>().ReverseMap());
        });

Library scans all descendant classes from Profile so it is better to store mapping in Profile descendants

    public class Profile1 : Profile
    {
        public Profile1()
        {
            CreateMap<Source, Dest>();
        }
    }

Mapper.Map usage

To map at runtime, add a dependency on IMapper:

public class EmployeesController {
    private readonly IMapper _mapper;

    public EmployeesController(IMapper mapper)
        => _mapper = mapper;

    // use _mapper.Map to map
}

ProjectTo usage

Starting with 8.0 you can use IMapper.ProjectTo. The old ProjectTo is an extension method and does not have dependency injection available. Pass an IConfigurationProvider instance directly:

var orders = await dbContext.Orders
                       .ProjectTo<OrderDto>(_configurationProvider)
                       .ToListAsync();

Or you can use an IMapper instance:

var orders = await dbContext.Orders
                       .ProjectTo<OrderDto>(_mapper.ConfigurationProvider)
                       .ToListAsync();
