A set of .NET tools that converts a Resx code into C# code.

A .NET library that converts a Resx code into C# code.

This library can be installed through NuGet - http://nuget.org/packages/ResxToCs.Core.

Coming soon…

A .NET Core CLI tool that converts the .resx files to the .Designer.cs files.

This tool can be installed through NuGet - http://nuget.org/packages/dotnet-resx2cs. Installation of this package should be done by adding the following code into .csproj file:

<ItemGroup>
	<DotNetCliToolReference Include="dotnet-resx2cs" Version="…" />
</ItemGroup>

In simplest case, you just need to add the following code into .csproj file:

<Target Name="СonvertResxToCs" BeforeTargets="BeforeCompile">
	<Exec Command="dotnet resx2cs" />
</Target>

If your .resx files are outside the project, then you can specify a another directory by using the following command:

dotnet resx2cs my-resource-directory

A MSBuild task that converts the .resx files to the .Designer.cs files.

This tool can be installed through NuGet - http://nuget.org/packages/ResxToCs.MSBuild.

In simplest case, you do not need to do anything. But if your .resx files are outside the project, then you need to first disable the default target:

<PropertyGroup>
	… 
	<DisableDefaultResxToCsConversionTarget>true</DisableDefaultResxToCsConversionTarget>
	… 
</PropertyGroup>

Then add a new target and explicitly specify the value of InputDirectory property:

<Target Name="СonvertResxToCs" BeforeTargets="BeforeCompile">
	<ResxToCsTask InputDirectory="my-resource-directory" />
</Target>
