HotAvalonia.Fody

GitHub Build Status Version License

HotAvalonia.Fody is an optional Fody weaver designed to enhance the overall hot reload experience for HotAvalonia users.

Usage

Like any other Fody weaver, HotAvalonia.Fody can be configured either via FodyWeavers.xml, or directly in your project file using the WeaverConfiguration property, as can be seen below:

<PropertyGroup>
  <WeaverConfiguration>
    <Weavers>
      <HotAvalonia>
        <Solution Path="$(SolutionPath)">
          <Project Path="/home/user/projects/MyApp/src/MyApp/MyApp.csproj" AssemblyName="MyApp" />
          <Project Path="/home/user/projects/MyApp/src/MyApp.Desktop/MyApp.Desktop.csproj" AssemblyName="MyApp.Desktop" />
        </Solution>
        <PopulateOverride Enable="true" />
        <UseHotReload Enable="true" GeneratePathResolver="true" />
        <References Enable="false" Exclude="HotAvalonia.Core;Avalonia.Markup.Xaml.Loader" />
      </HotAvalonia>
    </Weavers>
  </WeaverConfiguration>
</PropertyGroup>

Here's a quick overview of the weaver-specific properties:

PopulateOverride

This feature weaver is responsible for injecting a small piece of logic into Avalonia resources (such as styles and resource dictionaries), allowing their original, precompiled Populate method to be overridden at runtime even in environments where method injection is unavailable.

Name Description Default Examples
Enable Sets a value indicating whether this feature weaver is enabled. false true <br> false

Note that for this weaver to work properly, Fody needs to run after Avalonia has finished compiling the XAML files; otherwise, there will be nothing to inject into. This can be achieved by:

<FodyDependsOnTargets>$(FodyDependsOnTargets);CompileAvaloniaXaml</FodyDependsOnTargets>

UseHotReload

This feature weaver is responsible for automatically invoking HotAvalonia.AvaloniaHotReloadExtensions.UseHotReload(AppBuilder) on the AppBuilder instance created during app initialization, thereby kicking HotAvalonia into action. Thanks to this, users do not need to modify their source code to enable hot reload for their application.

Name Description Default Examples
Enable Sets a value indicating whether this feature weaver is enabled. false true <br> false
GeneratePathResolver Sets a value indicating whether this feature weaver should automatically generate HotAvalonia.AvaloniaHotReloadExtensions.ResolveProjectPath(Assembly) based on the <Solution> element, if this method does not already exist. false true <br> false

References

This feature weaver is responsible for removing specified assembly references from the main module definition of your project and cleaning up related copy-local paths.

Name Description Default Examples
Enable Sets a value indicating whether this feature weaver is enabled. false true <br> false
Exclude Provides a semicolon-separated list of assembly names, all mentions of which should be erased from the target project. N/A HotAvalonia.Core;Avalonia.Markup.Xaml.Loader
