UrlActionGenerator

UrlActionGenerator is a C# Source Generator for ASP.NET Core apps that create strongly typed extension methods for the generation of URL's in ASP.NET Core projects.

So instead of writing this by using magical strings:

<a asp-controller="Home" asp-action="Index" asp-route-param="4">Link</a>

You can write the following with the advantages of autocomplete and strong types:

<a href="@Url.Actions().Home.Index(param: 4)">Link</a>

Installation

To start using this package, simply add the UrlActionGenerator package to your ASP.NET Core project by using the IDE tooling or running the below command:

dotnet add package UrlActionGenerator

How to use

Once the package is added, extension methods are automatically added to the IUrlHelper interface based on the following template:

For MVC:

IUrlHelper.Actions().[ControllerName].[ActionName](...parameters)
IUrlHelper.[AreaName]Actions().[ControllerName].[ActionName](...parameters)

For Razor Pages:

IUrlHelper.Pages().Folder.Page(...parameters)
IUrlHelper.[AreaName]Pages().Folder.Page(...parameters)

For more examples check out the wiki for MVC examples or Razor Pages examples.
