A collection of classes that uses reflection to print out property information about forms.
Dotnet CLI:
dotnet add package WinFormsScraper --version 1.3.0
NuGet Command:
NuGet\Install-Package WinFormsScraper -Version 1.3.0
Or alternatively, through Visual Studio, navigate to:
Tools -> NuGet Package Manager -> Manage NuGet Packages For Solution -> Browse -> Search for Winforms Scraper
The scraping of the forms can be done by calling the Scrape
method on the WinFormsScraper
class.
This will output information about your form in the Output File
Note: Please remove the scraping code from your project once you have used it.
Example:
WinFormsScraper.WinFormsScraper.Scrape();
The output file will default to FormDetails.txt
in your bin/Debug/netX.X-windows folder.
To customise the location of this file, simply change the property, Path
in the WinFormsScraperConfig
class.
WinFormsScraper.WinFormsScraperConfig.Path = "Custom_Path.txt";
You can filter what properties are printed by using a custom Hashset with the names of the properties you want.
You can pass them into the Scrape
method like this:
WinFormsScraper.WinFormsScraper.Scrape(["Font", "Location"]);
Alternatively, You can modify the ScrapeFilter
property in the WinFormsScraperConfig
class to define your own Hashset.
WinFormsScraper.WinFormsScraperConfig.ScrapeFilter = [ "Size", "DockType" ];
WinFormsScraper.WinFormsScraper.Scrape(WinFormsScraper.ScrapeType.Custom);
Finally, If you don't want to define your own Hashsets, you can use the range of prebuilt Hashsets by passing a ScrapeType
through to the Scrape
function.
The following code snippet will only print out the Size
and Location
properties.
WinFormsScraper.WinFormsScraper.Scrape(WinFormsScraper.ScrapeType.SIZE_AND_LOCATION);
