Autofac.BindingByConvention

master	develop	NuGet

Manually registering types in an IoC container can be a tedious task. This extension to Autofac aims to help automatically registering types with common, built-in and extensible conventions.

How to use it

Installation

Install with NuGet. See NuGet package page for more information.

Usage and examples

The following example will create a new ContainerBuilder and

• Register assembly types located in a list of assemblies by convention...
• ... to the contracts (interfaces) that have...
• ... a name matching a convention where the interface's type name has a leading I ...
• ... except if this interface type is listed as a specified list of interfaces to ignore ...
• ... and except if the contracts (interfaces) are marked with the NoBindingByConventionAttribute attribute...
• ... Instances will be instanciated per-dependency (each resolved type is a different instance.)

var builder = new ContainerBuilder();

builder
    .RegisterAssemblyTypes(listOfAssemblies)
    .ByConvention().ToTheContractsWith()
        .NameMatching(InterfaceTypeName.HasLeadingI)
        .Except
            .Types(listOfInterfacesToIgnore)
        .Except
            .ContractsMarkedWith<NoBindingByConventionAttribute>()
        .Instanciated<PerDependency>();
