Map List<Foo> To FooListViewModel

[ikkentim]

Hi, is there an easy way to map a list to a viewmodel which accepts a list in the constructor? I tried the following but it doesn't work

    [Mapper]
    public static partial class Mapper
    {
        public static partial PersonListVM ToVM(this List<PersonDto> people);
    }

    public record PersonDto(string Name);

    public record PersonVM(string Name);

    public record PersonListVM(List<PersonVM> People);

You can implement the wrapping manually:

    [Mapper]
    public static partial class Mapper
    {
        public static PersonListVM ToVM(this List<PersonDto> people) => new PersonListVM(people.ToVM());

        private static partial List<PersonVM> ToVM(this List<PersonDto> people);
    }
