Source Generators Toolkit

Getting started

[Generator]
public class MagicGenerator : ISourceGenerator
{
    SyntaxReceiver syntaxReceiver = new MethodsWithAttributeReceiver("MagicAttribute");

    /// <inheritdoc/>
    public void Initialize(GeneratorInitializationContext context)
    {
        context.RegisterForSyntaxNotifications(() => syntaxReceiver);
    }

    public void Execute(GeneratorExecutionContext context)
    {
        // Retrieve the populated receiver
        if (!(context.SyntaxContextReceiver is SyntaxReceiver receiver))
        {
            return;
        }

        foreach (IMethodSymbol methodSymbol in this.syntaxReceiver.Methods)
        {
            // process your method here.
        }
    }
}

Find all classes which implements specific interface

[Generator]
public class MagicGenerator : ISourceGenerator
{
    SyntaxReceiver syntaxReceiver = new ClassesWithInterfacesReceiver("IEnumerable");

    /// <inheritdoc/>
    public void Initialize(GeneratorInitializationContext context)
    {
        context.RegisterForSyntaxNotifications(() => syntaxReceiver);
    }

    public void Execute(GeneratorExecutionContext context)
    {
        // Retrieve the populated receiver
        if (!(context.SyntaxContextReceiver is SyntaxReceiver receiver))
        {
            return;
        }

        foreach (INamedTypeSymbol classSymbol in this.syntaxReceiver.Classes)
        {
            // process your class here.
        }
    }
}

Find all classes which derived from well-known type

[Generator]
public class MagicGenerator : ISourceGenerator
{
    SyntaxReceiver syntaxReceiver = new DerivedClassesReceiver("DbConnection");

    /// <inheritdoc/>
    public void Initialize(GeneratorInitializationContext context)
    {
        context.RegisterForSyntaxNotifications(() => syntaxReceiver);
    }

    public void Execute(GeneratorExecutionContext context)
    {
        // Retrieve the populated receiver
        if (!(context.SyntaxContextReceiver is SyntaxReceiver receiver))
        {
            return;
        }

        foreach (INamedTypeSymbol classSymbol in this.syntaxReceiver.Classes)
        {
            // process your class here.
        }
    }
}

Find all members with given attribute

[Generator]
public class MagicGenerator : ISourceGenerator
{
    SyntaxReceiver syntaxReceiver = new MethodsWithAttributeReceiver("MagicAttribute");

    /// <inheritdoc/>
    public void Initialize(GeneratorInitializationContext context)
    {
        context.RegisterForSyntaxNotifications(() => syntaxReceiver);
    }

    public void Execute(GeneratorExecutionContext context)
    {
        // Retrieve the populated receiver
        if (!(context.SyntaxContextReceiver is SyntaxReceiver receiver))
        {
            return;
        }

        foreach (IMethodSymbol methodSymbol in this.syntaxReceiver.Methods)
        {
            // process your method here.
            var parameters = methodSymbol.Parameters;
            foreach (var parameter in parameters)
            {
                // Do your parameter magic here.
            }
        }
    }
}

Work with multiple receivers

[Generator]
public class AggregateMagicGenerator : ISourceGenerator
{
    SyntaxReceiver syntaxReceiver1 = new MethodsWithAttributeReceiver("MagicAttribute");
    SyntaxReceiver syntaxReceiver2 = new DerivedClassesReceiver("DbConnection");
    SyntaxReceiver agregateSyntaxReceiver;

    public MagicGenerator()
    {
        this.agregateSyntaxReceiver = new AggregateSyntaxContextReceiver(this.syntaxReceiver1, this.syntaxReceiver2);
    }

    /// <inheritdoc/>
    public void Initialize(GeneratorInitializationContext context)
    {
        context.RegisterForSyntaxNotifications(() => agregateSyntaxReceiver);
    }

    public void Execute(GeneratorExecutionContext context)
    {
        // Retrieve the populated receiver
        if (!(context.SyntaxContextReceiver is SyntaxReceiver receiver))
        {
            return;
        }

        foreach (IMethodSymbol methodSymbol in this.syntaxReceiver1.Methods)
        {
            // process your method here.
            var parameters = methodSymbol.Parameters;
            foreach (var parameter in parameters)
            {
                // Do your parameter magic here.
            }
        }

        foreach (INamedTypeSymbol classSymbol in this.syntaxReceiver2.Classes)
        {
            // process your class here.
        }
    }
}
