I'm using AutoMapper to map between a Linq Domain object and a ViewModel to display an Edit Form to the user which works perfectly. When they click submit I'd like to know the best way to map the ViewModel back to a Linq entity and persist it to the database. The Linq entity I'm using has multiple collections of other entities (ie one-...

Automapper is a object-object mapper where we can use to project domain model to view model in asp.net mvc. http://automapper.codeplex.com/ Is there equivalent implementation in Python for use in Django(Template)/Pylons ? Or is there necessity for this in Python world? ...
Can you Mapper.CreateMap<Foo, Bar>() .ForMember(x => x.IsFoo, x => x.Ignore()); and then later on add another mapping of the sort .ForMember(x => x.IsBar, x => x.Ignore()); or even change the old one .ForMember(x => x.IsFor, x => x.MapFrom(z => z.IsBar)); ? If so, how? ...
If I have some classes that implement the same interface, so they all contain the same property. Is there a way to add a formatter to these properties? I only found the possibility to add a formatter to a specific property type. Here's some code that should clarify what I mean: public interface ITaggable { IList<string> Tags { get;...
Hi there: I ve been trying to do something like this: ... Mapper.CreateMap<IEnumerable<Foo>, IEnumerable<FooDto>>(); var fooDtos = Mapper.Map<IEnumerable<Foo>, IEnumerable<FooDto>>(foos); Keep in mind that Foo is an entity but the properties are exactly the same that FooDto. The Result of fooDtos is an empty enumerable Tips? ...
I have a class Foos: public class Foos { public string TypeName; public IEnumerable<int> IDs; } Is it possible to map it with AutoMapper to IList of Foo objects? public class Foo { public string TypeName; public int ID; } ...

There are configuration examples for Structure Map and Windsor: http://www.cprieto.com/index.php/2009/08/20/using-automapper-with-castle-windsor/ But I haven't found anything for Ninject. Do you know how to translate those mappings to Ninject? ...
I'm using AutoMapper and I'd like it to trace back a source property based on the name of the mapped (flattened) destination property. This is because my MVC controller has the name of a mapped property that it needs to provide to a service call that for sorting purposes. The service needs to know the name of the property that the mappi...
Is it possible to configure AutoMapper to return a new instance of the destination type if the source object is null? Source source = null; Dest d1 = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map<Source, Dest>(source); // d1 == null // I'm looking for a way to configure AutoMapper to // eliminate this code: Dest d2 = AutoMapper.Mapper.Map<Source, Dest>(source...
I'd like to generalize a property lookup from code like this .ForMember(dest => dest.FirstName, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.GetValue("FirstName")) .ForMember(dest => dest.LastName, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.GetValue("LastName")) ... (repeated for many properties) to a one-liner, conceptually something like this: // How can I ac...
I am having an issue using AutoMapper (which is an excellent technology) to map a business object to a DTO where I have inheritance off of an abstract base class within a collection. Here are my objects: abstract class Payment class CashPayment : Payment class CreditCardPayment : Payment I also have an invoice object which contains a...
Hello, AutoMapper is great, saves a lot of time, but when I started looking at the performance of my application AutoMapper is responsible for performance loss. I'm using lazy loading with NHibernate. Most of the time a need parent entity without needing to access child entities at all. In reality what happens is that AutoMapper tries ...
I have a SearchService with a Search() method that retrieves an IEnumerable<Search> from a repository. These Search objects come directly from LINQ To SQL. Next I'm using AutoMapper to convert those Search types into SearchModel types (and later they get passed into a controller, for example). var searches = searchRepository.GetByUserID...
Given the requirement: Take an object graph, set all enum type properties based on the processed value of a second string property. Convention dictates that the name of the source string property will be that of the enum property with a postfix of "Raw". By processed we mean we'll need to strip specified characters e.t.c. I've looked...
I'm new with AutoMapper and have a problem I'm trying to solve. If I have a source class like this: public class Membership { public int MembershipId { get; set; } public string FirstName { get; set; } public string LastName { get; set; } public string OrganizationName { get; set; } public List<Address> Addresses { ...
Quick question regarding Automapper. I'm mapping data from an incoming web service, where datetimes fields are not null, but sometimes have the value of DateTime.MinValue as a work-around (I don't own this service so I'm at their mercy I'm afraid). I'm mapping from those objects to Linq To Sql objects created off of a db model I create...
In Ninject there's automatic implicit self-binding for concrete types. So without further configuration I can resolve every type in my application, like: Foo foo = Kernel.Get(typeof(Foo)); Now if I need an Array of Foo, how would I do that? Foo[] foos = Kernel.Get(typeof(Foo[])); // does not work EDIT: For clarification, here is, ...
After reading ASP.NET MVC 2 in Action and watching Jimmy Bogard's presentation from MvcConf (both highly recommended!), I began to implement some of their ideas. One of the cool things they do, is not only to use AutoMapper to map your entities to some viewmodel, but automate this with an AutoMapViewResult: public class EventsControlle...
