Setting Up AutoMapper For Use From A Container
I like getting all my service from the container and I like using AutoMapper. So I added the AutoMapper to the container, a WindsorContainer in this case.
The main interface is IMappingEngine, which is implemented by MappingEngine which also implements IMappingEngineRunner. This contains a getter to an IConfiguration interface which is also an IConfigurationExpression. So to replace Mapper you need an instance of IMappingEngine and then you can configure the engine as follows:
public CustomMapper(IMappingEngine engine)
{
engine = engine;
var runner = engine as IMappingEngineRunner;
if (runner == null)
return;
var configuration = runner.Configuration as IConfigurationExpression;
if (configuration == null)
return;
configuration.CreateMap<IApplication, B.Application>();
}
Next setting up the container, the MappingEngine needs an IConfiguration, the Configuration needs some IObjectMapper instances.
private static void RegisterMappingEngine()
{
container.Register(AllTypes.Of<IObjectMapper>()
.FromAssembly(typeof (IObjectMapper).Assembly)
.Configure(configurer => configurer.Named(configurer.ServiceType.Name))
.Configure(configurer => configurer.LifeStyle.Transient));
container.Register(Component.For<IConfiguration>().ImplementedBy<Configuration>()
.LifeStyle.Transient.ServiceOverrides(
ServiceOverride.ForKey("mappers").Eq(
"CustomTypeMapMapper",
"TypeMapMapper",
"NewOrDefaultMapper",
"StringMapper",
"EnumMapper",
"ArrayMapper",
"EnumerableMapper",
"NullableMapper",
"AssignableMapper")
));
_container.Register(Component.For<IMappingEngine>().ImplementedBy<MappingEngine>()
.LifeStyle.Transient);
}
These are all set as Transient because each CustomMapper can be Singleton and I don’t want the mappings to over lap between the CustomMappers.
