Setting by attributes

AdaptIgnore attribute

When a property decorated with [AdaptIgnore], that property will be excluded from Mapping. For example, if we would like to exclude price to be mapped.

public class Product {
    public string Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }

    [AdaptIgnore]
    public decimal Price { get; set; }
}

Ignore custom attributes

You can ignore members annotated with any attributes by using the IgnoreAttribute method.

TypeAdapterConfig.GlobalSettings.Default
    .IgnoreAttribute(typeof(JsonIgnoreAttribute));

However IgnoreAttribute will ignore both source and destination. If you would like to ignore only one side, you can use IgnoreMember.

config.IgnoreMember((member, side) => member.HasCustomAttribute(typeof(NotMapAttribute)) && side == MemberSide.Source);

AdaptMember attribute

Map to different name
With AdaptMember attribute, you can specify name of source or target to be mapped. For example, if we would like to map Id to Code.

public class Product {
    [AdaptMember("Code")]
    public string Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

Map to non-public members
You can also map non-public members with AdaptMember attribute.

public class Product {
    [AdaptMember]
    private string HiddenId { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

Rename from custom attributes

You can rename member to be matched by GetMemberName. For example, if we would like to rename property based on JsonProperty attribute.

TypeAdapterConfig.GlobalSettings.Default
    .GetMemberName(member => member.GetCustomAttributes(true)
                                    .OfType<JsonPropertyAttribute>()
                                    .FirstOrDefault()?.PropertyName);  //if return null, property will not be renamed

Include custom attributes

And if we would like to include non-public members decorated with JsonProperty attribute, we can do it by IncludeAttribute.

TypeAdapterConfig.GlobalSettings.Default
    .IncludeAttribute(typeof(JsonPropertyAttribute));
