Testura.Code is a wrapper around the Roslyn API and used for generation, saving and compiling C# code. It provides methods and helpers to generate classes, methods, statements and expressions.

It provide helpers to generate:

• Classes
• Methods
• Parameters
• Arguments
• Attributes
• Fields
• Properties

But also simple statements like:

• Declaration statements (for example declare and assign variables)
• Iterations statements (for example for-loop)
• Jump statements (for example return)
• Selection statement (for example if-statements)
• Expression statements (for example invoke methods)

PM> Install-Package Testura.Code

Testura.Code have three different types of helpers:

• Generators - The most basic kinds of code generators, for example fields, properties and modifiers.
• Statement - Helpers for regular statements and expressions, for example declare and assign a variable or invoke a method.
• Builders - Currently we have two builder - One class builder and one method builder. These have the highest abstraction and are easy to use.

• Wiki -https://github.com/Testura/Testura.Code/wiki
• Api - https://testura.github.io/Code/api/index.html

Here is an example on how to generate, save and compile a simple hello world.

var @class = new ClassBuilder("Program", "HelloWorld")
	.WithUsings("System") 
	.WithModifiers(Modifiers.Public)
	.WithMethods(
		new MethodBuilder("Main")
		.WithModifiers(Modifiers.Public, Modifiers.Static)
		.WithParameters(new Parameter("args", typeof(string[])))
		.WithBody(
			BodyGenerator.Create(
				Statement.Expression.Invoke("Console", "WriteLine", new List<IArgument>() { new ValueArgument("Hello world") }).AsStatement(),
				Statement.Expression.Invoke("Console", "ReadLine").AsStatement()
				))
		.Build())
	.Build();

This code will generate following code:

using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
   public class Program
   {
       public static void Main(String[] args)
       {
           Console.WriteLine("Hello world");
           Console.ReadLine();
       }
   }
}

var saver = new CodeSaver();

// As a string
var generatedCode = saver.SaveCodeAsString(@class);

// Or to file
saver.SaveCodeToFile(@class, @"/path/HelloWorld.cs");

var compiler = new Compiler();

//To a dll

// From string
var result = await compiler.CompileSourceAsync(@"/path/HelloWorld.dll", generatedCode);

// From file
var result = await compiler.CompileFilesAsync(@"/path/HelloWorld.dll",  @"/path/HelloWorld.cs");

//In memory (without creating a dll)

// From string
var result = await compiler.CompileSourceInMemoryAsync(generatedCode);

// From file
var result = await compiler.CompileFilesInMemoryAsync(@"/path/HelloWorld.cs");

If we miss a feature, syntax or statements - just create an issue or contact us and I'm sure we can add it.

It is also possible for you to contribute with your own feature. Simply add a pull request and we will look at it.
