Automapper config for nested dtos #1855

I have the following classes:

public class Employee : FullAuditedEntity<Guid>
{
    <<<<properties....>>>
    public ICollection<Contact> Contacts {get;set;}
}

public class Contact : FullAuditedEntity<Guid>
{
    <<<properties...>>>
    public ICollection<Address> Addresses {get;set;}
}

public class Address : FullAuditedEntity<Guid>
{
     <<<properties...>>>   
}

Which means an employee can have multiple contacts and each contact can have multiple addresses.

Now I have the following Dtos to insert 1 employee record.

public class EmployeeDto : FullAuditedEntityDto<Guid>
{
    <<<<properties....>>>
    public ICollection<ContactDto> Contacts {get;set;}
}

public class ContactDto : FullAuditedEntityDto<Guid>
{
    <<<properties...>>>
    public ICollection<AddressDto> Addresses {get;set;}
}

public class AddressDto : FullAuditedEntityDto<Guid>
{
     <<<properties...>>>   
}

I have the following automapper configuration for layer 1 mapping, where we map employee to employeeDto and contact to contactdto.

CreateMap<Employee, EmployeeDto>()
                .ForMember(dest => dest.Contacts,
                            opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.Contacts));

How can we map the address in contact to the addressdto in contactdto?

Or is there a more reliable method. Thank you

    hi

    I think you can create three maps.

    CreateMap<Employee, EmployeeDto>()
    CreateMap<Contact, ContactDto>()
    CreateMap<AddressDto, AddressDto>()
    

    https://docs.automapper.org/en/latest/Getting-started.html
