This is the official strategy from @automapper
to work with Interfaces/Types along with Plain Objects
npm i @automapper/pojos
or with yarn
:
yarn add @automapper/pojos
@automapper/pojos
depends on @automapper/core
npm i @automapper/core
or with yarn
:
yarn add @automapper/core
@automapper/pojos
provides pojos
as a MappingStrategyInitializer
. Pass pojos()
to createMapper
to create a Mapper
that uses pojos
strategy.
import { pojos, PojosMetadataMap } from '@automapper/pojos';
import { createMapper, createMap, forMember, mapFrom } from '@automapper/core';
const mapper = createMapper({
...,
strategyInitializer: pojos()
});
interface User {
firstName: string;
lastName: string;
}
interface UserDto {
firstName: string;
lastName: string;
fullName: string;
}
PojosMetadataMap.create<User>('SomeTokenForUser', {
firstName: String,
lastName: String
});
PojosMetadataMap.create<UserDto>('SomeTokenForUserDto', {
firstName: String,
lastName: String,
fullName: String
});
createMap<User, UserDto>(
mapper,
'SomeTokenForUser',
'SomeTokenForUserDto',
forMember(
d => d.fullName,
mapFrom(s => s.firstName + ' ' + s.lastName)
)
);
mapper.map<User, UserDto>(
{firstName: 'Auto', lastName: 'Mapper'},
'SomeTokenForUser',
'SomeTokenForUserDto'
);
// { firstName: 'Auto', lastName: 'Mapper', fullName: 'Auto Mapper' }
