### What is AutoMapper?



AutoMapper is a simple little library built to solve a deceptively complex problem - getting rid of code that mapped one object to another. This type of code is rather dreary and boring to write, so why not invent a tool to do it for us?



This is the main repository for AutoMapper, but there's more:



* [Collection Extensions](https://github.com/AutoMapper/AutoMapper.Collection)

* [Expression Mapping](https://github.com/AutoMapper/AutoMapper.Extensions.ExpressionMapping)

* [EF6 Extensions](https://github.com/AutoMapper/AutoMapper.EF6)

* [IDataReader/Record Extensions](https://github.com/AutoMapper/AutoMapper.Data)

* [Enum Extensions](https://github.com/AutoMapper/AutoMapper.Extensions.EnumMapping)



### How do I get started?



First, configure AutoMapper to know what types you want to map, in the startup of your application:



```csharp

var configuration = new MapperConfiguration(cfg => 

{

    cfg.CreateMap();

    cfg.CreateMap();

});

// only during development, validate your mappings; remove it before release

#if DEBUG

configuration.AssertConfigurationIsValid();

#endif

// use DI (http://docs.automapper.org/en/latest/Dependency-injection.html) or create the mapper yourself

var mapper = configuration.CreateMapper();

```

Then in your application code, execute the mappings:



```csharp

var fooDto = mapper.Map(foo);

var barDto = mapper.Map(bar);

```



Check out the [getting started guide](https://automapper.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Getting-started.html). When you're done there, the [wiki](https://automapper.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) goes in to the nitty-gritty details. If you have questions, you can post them to [Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/automapper) or in our [Gitter](https://gitter.im/AutoMapper/AutoMapper).



### Where can I get it?



First, [install NuGet](http://docs.nuget.org/docs/start-here/installing-nuget). Then, install [AutoMapper](https://www.nuget.org/packages/AutoMapper/) from the package manager console:



```

PM> Install-Package AutoMapper

```

Or from the .NET CLI as:

```

dotnet add package AutoMapper

```



### Do you have an issue?



First check if it's already fixed by trying the [MyGet build](https://automapper.readthedocs.io/en/latest/The-MyGet-build.html).



You might want to know exactly what [your mapping does](https://automapper.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Understanding-your-mapping.html) at runtime.



If you're still running into problems, file an issue above.
