Arcasharp.Embed.SourceGenerator

Arcasharp.Embed.SourceGenerator is a C# source generator that allows you to embed files directly into your C# code. This can be useful for including static resources such as configuration files, images, or other assets directly within your assemblies.

Getting Started

To get started with Arcasharp.Embed.SourceGenerator, follow these steps:

Installation

  1. Add the Arcasharp.Embed.SourceGenerator package to your project. You can do this via the NuGet Package Manager or by adding the following line to your .csproj file:

    <PackageReference Include="Arcasharp.Embed.SourceGenerator" Version="1.0.0-alpha.2" />
    
  2. Restore the NuGet packages:

    dotnet restore
    

Usage

To embed a file into your project, use the [EmbedFile] attribute on a partial static method that returns a byte[]. The source generator will automatically generate the necessary code to include the file as a byte array.

Example 1: Embedding a file
using Arcasharp.Embed;

namespace MyNamespace
{
    public static partial class EmbeddedFiles
    {
        [EmbedFile("path/to/your/file.txt")]
        public static partial byte[] GetFile();
    }
}

Caveats

To make sure the file are up to date, the source generator will run any time a change in the syntax tree is detected: that means basically when any character is typed into the editor. If you only need to update the embedded file's content, you will need to do a small change to the code to trigger the source generator.
