No mapping in Edge when using withProfile or static initialize
Hello,
we have an Angular 6 webapp and we use your automapper, thank you very much.
In a refactoring task we started to use the .withProfile functionality. I created the profiles in a seperate file/class. But after a while we discovered, that the automapper does not work in the Edge browser anymore.
I then tried to mimic the profiles by creating static functions, that only call automapper.createMap(); for the respective models. These functions get called in a initialize function, so the mappings are created once at a single place. Unfortunately this leads to problems with Edge again. It only works if the static methods get called in the component/service where the mapping happens. Interestingly, automapper does not complain about missing maps.
I think this sounds like some kind of context problem. But on the other hand the maps are global, aren't they?
I import automapper-ts with
import { } from 'automapper-ts';
I also tried
import * as automapper from 'automapper-ts';
but this doesn't made a difference.
I don't know if this is a bug or if Edge is just not supported. Maybe the problem is in our app. Any information or suggestion is highly appreciated.
Hi @KlausHans,
Thanks for reaching out. I am not aware of specific browser limitations. Based on what you suggest, could it be you did not actually load the profiles? AutoMapper is not yet built with a module system in mind, so extra files needed should be loaded by yourself...
Cheers, Bert
Thank you for the quick answer. It works perfectly in Chrome, Firefox and Safari. In these browsers the models get mapped with the profile. I think the automapper initializing is correct. Maybe i have the time next week to provide a minimal Angular project. Would it help?
That sure would help understanding the situation a lot! Of course, if you find a solution when creating a reproduction scenario, feel free to file a PR instead 😉.
