### Usage

#### Add package

Add the nuget package project to your projects.

`dotnet add package AssemblyMetadata.Generators`

### Generated

This source generator creates an internal partial class called `ThisAssembly` with all the assembly level attributes converted to string constants

```c#

internal static partial class ThisAssembly

{

    public const string TargetFramework = ".NETCoreApp,Version=v7.0";

    public const string Company = "LoreSoft";

    public const string Configuration = "Debug";

    public const string Copyright = "Copyright © 2023 LoreSoft";

    public const string Description = "Source generator to expose assembly attributes as string constants";

    public const string FileVersion = "1.0.0.0";

    public const string InformationalVersion = "1.0.0";

    public const string Product = "AssemblyMetadata.Generators.Tests";

    public const string Title = "AssemblyMetadata.Generators.Tests";

    public const string Version = "1.0.0.0";

    public const string RepositoryUrl = "https://github.com/loresoft/AssemblyMetadata.Generators";

    public const string NeutralResourcesLanguage = "en-US";

}

```

### Namespace

Set the `ThisAssemblyNamespace` MSBuild property to set the namespace of the generated `ThisAssembly` class. Otherwise, it will be in the global namespace.

Put `ThisAssembly` in the projects root namespace.

```xml

  $(RootNamespace)

```
