Converto is a C# library which gives you basic functions for type conversion and object transformation.
Copy
The Copy function allows you to strictly copy an object.
var newObject = existingObject.Copy();if (existingObject.TryCopy(out newObject))
{
}var newObjectOption = existingObject.TryCopy();
var newObject = newObjectOption.Value;With
The With function allows you to create a new object by mutating some properties.
var newObject = existingObject.With(new { Name = "Hello" });if (existingObject.TryWith(new { Name = "Hello" }, out newObject))
{
}var newObjectOption = existingObject.TryWith(new { Name = "Hello" });
var newObject = newObjectOption.Value;ConvertTo
The ConvertTo function allows you to create an object of a different type using the matching properties of another object.
var newObject = objectOfTypeA.ConvertTo<TypeB>();if (objectOfTypeA.TryConvertTo<TypeB>(out newObject))
{
}var newObjectOption = objectOfTypeA.TryConvertTo<TypeB>();
var newObject = newObjectOption.Value;IsDeepEqual
The IsDeepEqual function detects if two objects have strictly the same properties (not necessarily the same object).
bool isDeepEqual = object1.IsDeepEqual(object2);ToDictionary
The ToDictionary function allows you to create a dictionary from an object.
var newDictionary = existingObject.ToDictionary();
