Fluidify

A modern alternative to T4 — an MSBuild task that processes Fluid (Liquid) template files at build time to generate code, configuration, or any other text output.

Installation

dotnet add package Fluidify

Fluidify is a development dependency — it runs only at build time and adds nothing to your project's runtime output.

Usage

Add <Fluidify> items to your project file. Each item points to a .fluid template, and any custom metadata you set becomes a template variable.

<ItemGroup>
  <Fluidify Include="Models/Greeting.cs.fluid" Greeting="HELLO" />
  <Fluidify Include="Config/appsettings.json.fluid" AppName="MyApp" Version="1.0.0" />
</ItemGroup>

Templates use standard Liquid syntax:

Models/Greeting.cs.fluid

public static class Greeting
{
    public const string Value = "{{ Greeting }}, World!";
}

Building the project renders each template before compilation. The output path is inferred by stripping the .fluid extension, so Models/Greeting.cs.fluid produces Models/Greeting.cs.

Fluidify works with any text format — C#, JSON, HTML, YAML, or anything else. The .fluid extension is just a convention; the template itself is plain text with Liquid tags.

Custom output path

Use the Destination metadata to write the output to a different location:

<ItemGroup>
  <Fluidify Include="Templates/report.html.fluid"
            Destination="Output/report.html"
            Title="Status Report"
            Author="MyApp" />
</ItemGroup>

Relative paths are resolved from the project directory. Directories are created automatically.

How it works

Fluidify registers an MSBuild target that runs before CoreCompile. For each <Fluidify> item it:

  1. Parses the .fluid file using the Fluid template engine
  2. Passes all item metadata (except Destination) as template variables
  3. Writes the rendered output to the inferred or specified destination
