CodeGen

Units.NET Code Generator

This tool will replace the PowerShell scripts for generating source code. It is faster, easier to debug and more familiar to C# developers.

Generating code

Compile and run:

cd /dev/UnitsNet/CodeGen
dotnet run

Alternatively, build the .exe and run it:

cd /dev/UnitsNet/CodeGen
dotnet publish -c Release -r win10-x64
cd ../Artifacts/CodeGen/netcoreapp2.1/win10-x64/
CodeGen.exe

Bonus: .NET CLI Parameter Suggestions

The new, experimental DragonFruit .NET Core console app model has a suggestion API to query parameters of .exe files in order to suggest or auto-complete like PowerShell does. To get parameter suggestions, follow the instructions.

PowerShell:

cd /dev/UnitsNet/CodeGen
dotnet publish -c Release -r win10-x64 CodeGen
cd ../Artifacts/CodeGen/netcoreapp2.1/win10-x64/
CodeGen.exe --ver

Hit TAB and it should now suggest --version and --verbose parameters. This should work with any .exe that is compiled with Dragonfruit's app model.
