Mapping Graphs

This library allows to map data directly into an entity graph and set the right state for each entity automatically.

The type of the data to be mapped can be the same entity, any other class or anonymous type with a similar structure or dynamic objects like a dictionary or json.

Entity graph consists of the main entity to be updated along a subset of its related entities.

Mapping from the same entity

User user = await _dbContext.MapAsync<User>(new User { Id = 1, Name = "user name" });

Mapping from a DTO

User user = await _dbContext.MapAsync<User>(new UserDTO { Id = 2, Name = "this User was mapped from a DTO" });

Mapping from an anonymous type

User user = await _dbContext.MapAsync<User>(new { Id = 3, Name = "this User was mapped from an Anonymous Type" });

Mapping from a dictionary

User user = await _dbContext.MapAsync<User>(new Dictionary<string, object> { { "Id", 4 }, { "Name", "this User was mapped from a Dictionary" });

Mapping from Json
