SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Generate C# source for many or all object types in a NovaDB branch so developers can inspect, compile, or integrate schema-derived models without manually exporting each type.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Batch code generation: Create C# code for multiple specified type IDs or for every type in a branch in a single operation.
  • Safe file output: Writes generated source to a validated relative target path, with a sensible default filename when none is provided.
  • Consultant workflows: Useful when preparing branch-wide DTOs, schema review artifacts, or migrating models between services.

Quick Start

Generate C# code for all object types in branch 2100347 and save the result to codegen/types.cs.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate C# code for all object types in a NovaDB branch?▼

To generate C# code for all object types in a NovaDB branch, provide a numeric branch ID, set the language to csharp, and specify a safe relative targetPath for the output file to batch produce the source code.

Can I generate C# source code for multiple specific type IDs instead of an entire branch?▼

Yes, you can generate C# source code for specific type IDs by supplying optional comma-separated type IDs along with the required numeric branch ID and target output path.

What is batch C# code generation used for in NovaDB schema workflows?▼

Batch C# code generation in NovaDB is used to inspect, compile, or integrate schema-derived models, allowing developers to prepare branch-wide DTOs or migrate models between services without manual exports.

Does the C# code generator support outputting to any file path on my system?▼

No, the C# code generator requires a safe relative target path for the output file, applying a sensible default filename when none is provided to ensure secure file writing.

Why should I not use this tool to generate C# code for a single object type?▼

This tool is designed for multi-type batch C# code generation across many or all branch types, making it unsuitable and inefficient for single-type generation tasks.

What inputs are required to start generating C# models from a NovaDB branch?▼

Generating C# models requires a numeric branch ID, the csharp language setting, and a safe relative targetPath, with optional comma-separated type IDs for filtering specific objects.
