AttributeSourceGenerator

A simple attribute-based Roslyn incremental source generator base class for .NET.

Example generator

using AttributeSourceGenerator;
using Microsoft.CodeAnalysis;

namespace SourceGenerators;

[Generator]
public sealed class IdentifierSourceGenerator : AttributeIncrementalGeneratorBase
{
    public IdentifierSourceGenerator()
        : base(() => new AttributeIncrementalGeneratorConfiguration()
        {
            MarkerAttributeName = MarkerAttributeName,
            MarkerAttributeSource = MarkerAttributeSource,
            SymbolFilter = FilterType.Struct,
            SourceGenerator = GenerateIdentifier
        })
    {
    }

    private const string MarkerAttributeNamespace = "Domain.Common.Attributes";

    private const string MarkerAttributeName = $"{MarkerAttributeNamespace}.GeneratedIdentifierAttribute`1";

    private static source MarkerAttributeSource = new Source("GeneratedIdentifierAttribute`1", $$"""
        namespace {{MarkerAttributeNamespace}};
        
        [AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Struct)]
        public sealed class GeneratedIdentifierAttribute<TIdentifier> : Attribute;                                                               
        """;

    private static IEnumerable<Source> GenerateIdentifier(Symbol symbol)
    {
        return [new Source(symbol.Name, $$"""
            // <auto-generated/>
            
            #nullable enable
            
            namespace {{symbol.Namespace}};
            
            partial struct {{symbol.Name}} : IEquatable<{{symbol.Name}}>, IComparable<{{symbol.Name}}>, IComparable
            {
              // Implementation details
            }
            """)];
    }
}
