What is Razor Generator?

Razor Generator

Razor Generator is a Visual Studio extension that generates source code from Razor files (cshtml files), allowing developers to compile them into your assemblies. In other words, the role of the extension is to enable users to process the files during the design phase instead of runtime.

Key Features:

• Generates source code from Razor files


• Supports C# and potentially VB


• Includes 5 generator types for various functions


• Can be used in MVC applications or View Libraries


• Step-by-step guides provided for easy use

Integrating them into assemblies is considerably simpler and ensures convenient reuse and distribution. It is important to note that the tool solely provides C# support for now, but the developer can extend the support to VB if other users are interested and could provide some help in this sense.

The extension includes 5 generator types, namely McvHelper, MvcView, WebPage, WebPagesHelper, and Template, each representative of the type of function they perform. McvHelper enables the creation of a static type file best suited for writing Mvc helper methods, whereas the Template creates T4 preprocessed templates to go into the assembly. The WebPage and WebPagesHelper allow the generation of web pages that can go directly into WebPages apps or the precompiling and distribution of the specific web pages.

The extension can be used directly in MVC applications or View Libraries, and the developer provides a step-by-step guide for each one. Users interested in either should not hesitate to check out the guides.
