To generate a DTO from an entity, the Skill reads your entity class and produces a matching DTO with inherited constraints, preserving your project's indentation and import rules. It supports plain classes, records, and Lombok variants for both Java and Kotlin.
Yes, you can apply per-field controls like renaming and validations, and manage sub-DTOs using strategies like NEW_CLASS, NEW_NESTED_CLASS, EXIST_CLASS, or FLAT. The generation process also includes auto-resolving naming collisions to ensure clean code.
When conversion is required, the DTO generator delegates mapping tasks to a dedicated mapper-creator Skill. This delegation keeps the DTO generation process focused on structure while ensuring mapping logic is handled by a specialized tool.
Yes, the DTO generator supports Lombok-enabled variants and Kotlin records out of the box. It accurately produces clean, consistent code that aligns with your chosen Java or Kotlin DTO shapes and project conventions.
The best way to avoid naming collisions is to rely on the generator's built-in collision-safe naming auto-resolution. It automatically adjusts names during the generation of DTOs and sub-DTOs, preventing conflicts without manual intervention.
