c# - Automapper IEnumerable within class is not being mapped to RepeatedField

I want to map between two classes:

public class A {
    public IEnumerable<C> someList
}

and

public class B {
    public RepeatedField<D> someList
}

where RepeatedField is a class from Google.Protobuf.Collections that handles gRPC data.

EDIT: As it turns out, the way that gRPC creates classes via its prototype is not exactly like creating a class like B. See my answer.

I create an Automapper MappingConfiguration like this

return new MapperConfiguration(cfg =>
    {
        cfg.CreateMap<C, D>().ReverseMap();
        cfg.CreateMap<A, B>().ReverseMap();
    });

and then it gets registered via ASP.NET Startup class.

If I do something like this in another class

A instanceA; // assume A's list has values inside
var listofD = this.mapper.Map<List<D>>(A.someList)

it correctly returns a list with values inside. However:

A instanceA; // assume A's list has values inside
B instanceB = this.mapper.Map<B>(A);

returns an instance of B, but the list inside of instanceB is empty. How do I fix this?

You need to create a custom type converter for performing the conversion:

private class EnumerableToRepeatedFieldTypeConverter<TITemSource, TITemDest> : ITypeConverter<IEnumerable<TITemSource>, RepeatedField<TITemDest>>
{
    public RepeatedField<TITemDest> Convert(IEnumerable<TITemSource> source, RepeatedField<TITemDest> destination, ResolutionContext context)
    {
        destination = destination ?? new RepeatedField<TITemDest>();
        foreach (var item in source)
        {
            // obviously we haven't performed the mapping for the item yet
            // since AutoMapper didn't recognise the list conversion
            // so we need to map the item here and then add it to the new
            // collection
            destination.Add(context.Mapper.Map<TITemDest>(item));
        }
        return destination;
    }
}

And the other way, if required:

private class RepeatedFieldToListTypeConverter<TITemSource, TITemDest> : ITypeConverter<RepeatedField<TITemSource>, List<TITemDest>>
{
    public List<TITemDest> Convert(RepeatedField<TITemSource> source, List<TITemDest> destination, ResolutionContext context)
    {
        destination = destination ?? new List<TITemDest>();
        foreach (var item in source)
        {
            destination.Add(context.Mapper.Map<TITemDest>(item));
        }
        return destination;
    }
}

Which you can register like so:

ce.CreateMap(typeof(IEnumerable<>), typeof(RepeatedField<>)).ConvertUsing(typeof(EnumerableToRepeatedFieldTypeConverter<,>));
ce.CreateMap(typeof(RepeatedField<>), typeof(List<>)).ConvertUsing(typeof(RepeatedFieldToListTypeConverter<,>));

Try it online
