Class TypeUtils ​

Namespace: Momentum.Extensions.EventMarkdownGenerator.Services
Assembly: Momentum.Extensions.EventMarkdownGenerator.dll

Shared utility methods for type checking and name formatting. Consolidates type-related logic from multiple service classes.

csharp
public static class TypeUtils

Inheritance ​

object ← TypeUtils

Inherited Members ​

object.GetType(), object.MemberwiseClone(), object.ToString(), object.Equals(object?), object.Equals(object?, object?), object.ReferenceEquals(object?, object?), object.GetHashCode()

Methods ​

CollectComplexTypesFromProperties(IEnumerable<EventPropertyMetadata>) ​

Collects all complex types from a collection of event properties.

csharp
public static HashSet<Type> CollectComplexTypesFromProperties(IEnumerable<EventPropertyMetadata> properties)

Parameters ​

properties IEnumerable<EventPropertyMetadata>

Returns ​

HashSet<Type>

CollectNestedComplexTypes(Type, HashSet<Type>) ​

Collects all nested complex types from a parent type recursively.

csharp
public static void CollectNestedComplexTypes(Type parentType, HashSet<Type> schemaTypes)

Parameters ​

parentType Type

schemaTypes HashSet<Type>

GetCleanTypeName(Type) ​

Gets the full namespace + type name without assembly qualification. This is useful for creating clean filenames and identifiers while preserving full type identification.

csharp
public static string GetCleanTypeName(Type type)

Parameters ​

type Type

The type to get the clean name for

Returns ​

string

Full namespace + type name without assembly info (e.g., "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<System.String, System.Object>")

GetElementType(Type) ​

Gets the element type from a collection type (arrays or generic collections). For dictionaries, returns the value type (second generic argument).

csharp
public static Type? GetElementType(Type type)

Parameters ​

type Type

Returns ​

Type?

GetElementTypeName(Type) ​

Gets the element type name from a collection type.

csharp
public static string? GetElementTypeName(Type type)

Parameters ​

type Type

Returns ​

string?

GetFriendlyTypeName(Type) ​

Gets a friendly display name for a type (e.g., "string" instead of "String"). Handles nullable types and generics appropriately.

csharp
public static string GetFriendlyTypeName(Type type)

Parameters ​

type Type

Returns ​

string

IsCollectionType(Type) ​

Determines if a type is a collection type (arrays, lists, dictionaries, sets, etc.).

csharp
public static bool IsCollectionType(Type type)

Parameters ​

type Type

Returns ​

bool

IsComplexType(Type) ​

Determines if a type is complex (not a simple type, enum, or common framework type). Uses cycle detection to handle recursive type references.

csharp
public static bool IsComplexType(Type type)

Parameters ​

type Type

Returns ​

bool

IsPrimitiveType(Type) ​

Determines if a type is a simple value type (primitives, enums, common framework types).

csharp
public static bool IsPrimitiveType(Type type)

Parameters ​

type Type

Returns ​

bool

IsRequiredProperty(PropertyInfo) ​

Determines if a property is required based on RequiredAttribute or nullability context.

csharp
public static bool IsRequiredProperty(PropertyInfo property)

Parameters ​

property PropertyInfo

The property to check.

Returns ​

bool

True if the property is required; otherwise, false.
