Rystem 4.0.20

What is Rystem?

Get Started

Extension methods

Stopwatch

You can monitor the time spent on an action, task or in a method. Some examples from Unit test.

var started = Stopwatch.Start();
//do something
await Task.Delay(2000);
var result = started.Stop();

or

var result = await Stopwatch.MonitorAsync(async () =>
{
    await Task.Delay(2000);
});

or with a return value

 var result = await Stopwatch.MonitorAsync(async () =>
{
    await Task.Delay(2000);
    return 3;
});

Linq expression serializer

Usually a linq expression is not serializable as string. With this method you can serialize your expression with some limits. Only primitives are allowed in the expression body. An example from Unit test.

Expression<Func<MakeIt, bool>> expression = ƒ => ƒ.X == q && ƒ.Samules.Any(x => x == k) && ƒ.Sol && (ƒ.X.Contains(q) || ƒ.Sol.Equals(IsOk)) && (ƒ.E == id | ƒ.Id == V) && (ƒ.Type == MakeType.Yes || ƒ.Type == qq);
var serialized = expression.Serialize();

with result

"ƒ => ((((((ƒ.X == \"dasda\") AndAlso ƒ.Samules.Any(x => (x == \"ccccde\"))) AndAlso ƒ.Sol) AndAlso (ƒ.X.Contains(\"dasda\") OrElse ƒ.Sol.Equals(True))) AndAlso ((ƒ.E == Guid.Parse(\"bf46510b-b7e6-4ba2-88da-cef208aa81f2\")) Or (ƒ.Id == 32))) AndAlso ((ƒ.Type == 1) OrElse (ƒ.Type == 2)))"

with deserialization

var newExpression = expressionAsString.Deserialize<MakeIt, bool>();

and usage, for instance, with Linq

var result = makes.Where(newExpression.Compile()).ToList();

you can deserialize and compile at the same time with

var newExpression = expressionAsString.DeserializeAndCompile<MakeIt, bool>();

Reflection helper

Name of calling class

You can find the name of the calling class from your method, with deep = 1 the calling class of your method, with deep = 2 the calling class that calls the class that calls your method, and so on, with fullName set to true you obtain the complete name of the discovered class.

ReflectionHelper.NameOfCallingClass(deep, fullName);

Extensions for Type class

You can get the properties, fields and constructors for your class (and singleton them to save time during new requests)

Type.FetchProperties();
Type.FecthConstructors();
Type.FetchFields();

Mock a Type

If you need to create a type over an abstract class or interface you may use the mocking system of Rystem. For example, if you have an abstract class like this one down below.

public abstract class Alzio
{
    private protected string X { get; }
    public string O => X;
    public string A { get; set; }
    public Alzio(string x)
    {
        X = x;
    }
}

you can create an instace of it or simply mock it with

var mocked = typeof(Alzio).CreateInstance("AAA") as Alzio;
mocked.A = "rrrr";

and you can use the class like a real class. You also may do it with

Alzio alzio = null!;
var mocked = alzio.CreateInstance("AAA");
mocked.A = "rrrr";

or

Mocking.CreateInstance<Alzio>("AAA");

you may see "AAA" as argument for your constructor in abstract class.

Text extensions

You may convert as fast as possible byte[] to string or stream to byte[] or byte[] to stream or stream to string or string to stream. For example, string to byte array and viceversa.

string olfa = "daskemnlandxioasndslam dasmdpoasmdnasndaslkdmlasmv asmdsa";
var bytes = olfa.ToByteArray();
string value = bytes.ConvertToString();

For example, string to stream and viceversa.

string olfa = "daskemnlandxioasndslam dasmdpoasmdnasndaslkdmlasmv asmdsa";
var stream = olfa.ToStream();
string value = stream.ConvertToString();

You may read a string with break lines as an enumerable of string

string olfa = "daskemnlandxioasndslam\ndasmdpoasmdnasndaslkdmlasmv\nasmdsa";
var stream = olfa.ToStream();
var strings = new List<string>();
await foreach (var x in stream.ReadLinesAsync())
{
    strings.Add(x);
}

A simple method to make uppercase the first character.

string olfa = "dasda";
var olfa2 = olfa.ToUpperCaseFirst();

Character separated-value (CSV)

It's a brand new idea to serialize any kind of objects (with lesser occupied space of json), the idea comes from Command separated-value standard. To serialize

string value = _models.ToCsv();

To deserialize (for instance in a List of a class named CsvModel)

value.FromCsv<List<CsvModel>>();

Extensions for json

I don't know if you are fed up to write JsonSerializer.Serialize, I do, and so, you may use the extension method to serialize faster. To serialize

var text = value.ToJson();

To deserialize in a class (for instance a class named User)

var value = text.FromJson<User>();

Extensions for Task

I don't know if you still are fed up to write .ConfigureAwait(false) to eliminate the context waiting for a task. I do. Why should I set the configure await to false? To set configure await to false

await {your async task}.NoContext();

Instead, to get the result as synchronous result but with a configure await set to false.

{your async task}.ToResult();

You may change the behavior of your NoContext() or ToResult(), setting (in the bootstrap of your application for example)

RystemTask.WaitYourStartingThread = true;

When do I need a true? In windows application for example you have to return after a button clicked to the same thread that started the request.
