ReadFileLinesEnumGenerator

Overview

This project is a C# source generator designed to automatically generate enum types based on the content of specified text files. Each enum is created using the lines in the provided files, with minimal normalization applied to ensure invalid identifiers are transformed into valid ones.

Requirements

.NET 6 or higher

Project Setup

  1. Add a reference to this project by modifying your .csproj file accordingly.
  2. Specify file path properties in your .csproj file for the generator's usage.
    • Note: File names must have the suffix defined as .enum.txt to be compatible with other source generators which also use this property to determine file selection.

Usage

using ReadFileLinesEnumGenerator.Generated;

// The 'myEnum' type is automatically defined using the content of the "myEnum.enum.txt" file
// under the ReadFileLinesEnumGenerator.Generated namespace. 
// Each line in the file is converted into a valid identifier through minimal normalization.
myEnum selectedEnumValue = myEnum.A_0;

// An extension method is also provided to retrieve the original line.
string originalEnumValue = myEnum.A_0.ToStringValue();
