ASP.NET Core 2.2：无法解析“AutoMapper.IMapper”类型的服务

Question

ASP.NET Core (Version: 2.2.102)

I am building an API to return Portos and Especies, but anytime that I access /api/portos (as defined in the controller), I get this error:

InvalidOperationException: Unable to resolve service for type 'AutoMapper.IMapper' while attempting to activate 'fish.Controllers.PortosController'.

Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.ActivatorUtilities.GetService(IServiceProvider sp, Type type, Type requiredBy, bool isDefaultParameterRequired)

I am not sure what am I doing wrong, so any help is appreciated.

Especie.cs

using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.Schema;

namespace fish.Models
{
    [Table("Especies")]
    public class Especie
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        [Required]
        [StringLength(255)]
        public string Nome { get; set; }

        public Porto Porto { get; set; }
        public int PortoId { get; set; }
    }
}

Porto.cs

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;

namespace fish.Models

    public class Porto
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }

        [StringLength(255)]
        public string Nome { get; set; }
        public ICollection<Especie> Models { get; set; }

        public Porto()
        {
            Models = new Collection<Especie>();
        }

Answer 1

You will have to use automapper package as shown below:

Install-Package AutoMapper.Extensions.Microsoft.DependencyInjection

This will also in turn install the Automapper nuget package if you don't have it already.

Then, inside your ConfigureServices method of your startup.cs, you will have to add a call to it as shown below.

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.AddAutoMapper();
}

Refer this blog for more details.

EDIT:

There is very nice description from this thread.

You need to add code like below in startup.cs.

You have missed to add IMapper in DI. Please refer add Singleton call from below code.

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) {
    // .... Ignore code before this

   // Auto Mapper Configurations
    var mappingConfig = new MapperConfiguration(mc =>
    {
        mc.AddProfile(new MappingProfile());
    });

    IMapper mapper = mappingConfig.CreateMapper();
    services.AddSingleton(mapper);

    services.AddMvc();

}

In case you are using .NET CORE 5. First go to nuget packages, find and install AutoMapper.Extensions.Microsoft.DependencyInjection

Then you should extend Profile from Automapper and write mappings for your classes. Something like this below Then you should add Automapper in ConfigureServices method in Startup class.This typeof(CommonMappingProfile) can be omitted if your nuget package for AutoMapper is in the same project as your mapping profile class.

 services.AddAutoMapper(typeof(CommonMappingProfile));
