Lappa.Conventions

Opinionated C# project defaults providing:

Type aliases: int32, int64, uint8, float16, etc. via global using directives
Implicit null checks: Use if (obj) / if (!obj) instead of null checks (C# 14 / .NET 10+)
Analyzers + code fixes: Enforce consistent usage with auto-fixable warnings

Installation

<PackageReference Include="Lappa.Conventions" Version="1.0.2" PrivateAssets="all" />

The source generator injects the global usings and extensions, the analyzer enforces usage and default .editorconfig configuration is applied automatically.

What's included

Type aliases (generated automatically)

int32 count = 42;        // instead of int count = 42;
int64 bigNumber = 100L;  // instead of long bigNumber = 100L;
uint8 flags = 0xFF;      // instead of byte flags = 0xFF;
float16 small = 1.5f;    // instead of Half small = 1.5f;

All type mappings:

Alias	C# Keyword	CLR Type
`int8`	`sbyte`	`System.SByte`
`int16`	`short`	`System.Int16`
`int32`	`int`	`System.Int32`
`int64`	`long`	`System.Int64`
`int128`		`System.Int128`
`uint8`	`byte`	`System.Byte`
`uint16`	`ushort`	`System.UInt16`
`uint32`	`uint`	`System.UInt32`
`uint64`	`ulong`	`System.UInt64`
`uint128`		`System.UInt128`
`float16`		`System.Half`

Implicit Null Check (.NET 10+ only)

Test obj = new Test();

// instead of if (obj != null)
if (obj)           
{
    obj.DoWork();
    obj = null;
}

// instead of:if (obj == null)
if (!obj) 
{
    // Do stuff...
}

Analyzers

LACON001: Use type alias

Flags usage of built-in keywords (int, long, etc.) and CLR type names (System.Int32, etc.) when a type alias is available.

Severity: Error (default), configurable to warning or lower for less strict rules.

LACON002: Use implicit null check

Flags explicit null comparisons (obj != null, obj == null, obj is null, obj is not null) and suggests using implicit extension checks instead.

Severity: Warning (default), configurable.

Configuration

Severity can be changed if required. Override those in your .editorconfig:

[*.cs]
# Change severity (none | suggestion | warning | error)
dotnet_diagnostic.LACON001.severity = error
dotnet_diagnostic.LACON002.severity = warning
