PrimitiveJsonConverter 1.0.9

This package source generates System.Text.Json.JsonConverter that converts a Value Object into its primitive form using implicit/explicit operators.

The following class would be serialized/deserialized as an integer value.

Approach 1:

using PrimitiveJsonConverter;

[JsonPrimitive]
public sealed partial record DiceRoll
{
    public DiceRoll(int value)
    {
        if (value <= 0)
        {
            throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(nameof(value));
        }

        Value = value;
    }

    public int Value { get; }

    public static implicit operator DiceRoll(int value) => new(value);
    public static implicit operator int(DiceRoll value) => value.Value;
}

Approach 2:

using PrimitiveJsonConverter;

[JsonPrimitiveConverter(typeof(DiceRoll))]
internal sealed partial class DiceRollConverter {}

[JsonConverter(typeof(DiceRollConverter))]
public sealed record DiceRoll
{
    public DiceRoll(int value)
    {
        if (value <= 0)
        {
            throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(nameof(value));
        }

        Value = value;
    }

    public int Value { get; }

    public static implicit operator DiceRoll(int value) => new(value);
    public static implicit operator int(DiceRoll value) => value.Value;
}

Currently supported types:

• string
