# ProxyInterfaceGenerator
This project uses Source Generation to generate an interface and a Proxy class for classes.
This makes it possible to wrap external classes which do not have an interface, in a Proxy class which makes it easier to Mock and use DI.
## Install
[![NuGet Badge](https://buildstats.info/nuget/ProxyInterfaceGenerator)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/ProxyInterfaceGenerator)
You can install from NuGet using the following command in the package manager window:
`Install-Package ProxyInterfaceGenerator`
Or via the Visual Studio NuGet package manager or if you use the `dotnet` command:
`dotnet add package ProxyInterfaceGenerator`
## Usage
### Given: an external existing class which does not implement an interface
``` c#
public sealed class Person
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public string HelloWorld(string name)
{
return $"Hello {name} !";
}
}
```
### Create a partial interface
And annotate this with `ProxyInterfaceGenerator.Proxy[...]` and with the Type which needs to be wrapped:
``` c#
[ProxyInterfaceGenerator.Proxy(typeof(ProxyInterfaceConsumer.Person))]
public partial interface IPerson
{
}
```
#### ProxyBaseClasses
In case also want to proxy the properties/methods/events from the base class(es), use this:
``` c#
[ProxyInterfaceGenerator.Proxy(typeof(ProxyInterfaceConsumer.Person), true)] // 👈 Provide `true` as second parameter.
public partial interface IPerson
{
}
```
### When the code is compiled, this source generator creates the following
#### :one: An additional partial interface
Which defines the same properties and methods as in the external class.
``` c#
public partial interface IPerson
{
string Name { get; set; }
string HelloWorld(string name);
}
```
#### :two: A Proxy class
Which takes the external class in the constructor and wraps all properties and methods.
``` c#
public class PersonProxy : IPerson
{
public Person _Instance { get; }
public PersonProxy(Person instance)
{
_Instance = instance;
}
public string Name { get => _Instance.Name; set => _Instance.Name = value; }
public string HelloWorld(string name)
{
string name_ = name;
var result_19479959 = _Instance.HelloWorld(name_);
return result_19479959;
}
}
```
### :three: Use it
``` c#
IPerson p = new PersonProxy(new Person());
p.Name = "test";
p.HelloWorld("stef");
```
