# C#
linthis supports C# using `dotnet format` for both checking and formatting.
## Supported Extensions
- `.cs`
- `.csx`
## Tools
| [dotnet format](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-format) | Checker & Formatter | .NET code formatter and analyzer |
## Installation
`dotnet format` is included with .NET SDK 6.0 and later. For earlier versions:
```bash
dotnet tool install -g dotnet-format
```
Verify installation:
```bash
dotnet format --version
```
## Configuration
### EditorConfig
Create `.editorconfig` in your project root:
```ini
# Top-most EditorConfig file
root = true
[*.cs]
# Indentation
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
# New line preferences
end_of_line = lf
insert_final_newline = true
# C# code style settings
csharp_new_line_before_open_brace = all
csharp_new_line_before_else = true
csharp_new_line_before_catch = true
csharp_new_line_before_finally = true
# Naming conventions
dotnet_naming_rule.private_fields_should_be_camel_case.severity = warning
dotnet_naming_rule.private_fields_should_be_camel_case.symbols = private_fields
dotnet_naming_rule.private_fields_should_be_camel_case.style = camel_case_style
dotnet_naming_symbols.private_fields.applicable_kinds = field
dotnet_naming_symbols.private_fields.applicable_accessibilities = private
dotnet_naming_style.camel_case_style.capitalization = camel_case
# Code analysis
dotnet_diagnostic.CA1822.severity = warning # Mark members as static
dotnet_diagnostic.IDE0005.severity = warning # Remove unnecessary using
```
### .csproj Analyzers
Add analyzers to your project file:
```xml
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
<EnforceCodeStyleInBuild>true</EnforceCodeStyleInBuild>
<TreatWarningsAsErrors>false</TreatWarningsAsErrors>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers" Version="8.0.0">
<PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
<IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers</IncludeAssets>
</PackageReference>
</ItemGroup>
</Project>
```
## Usage
```bash
# Check C# files
linthis --lang csharp --check-only
# Format C# files
linthis --lang csharp --format-only
# Check and format
linthis --lang csharp
```
## Common Issues
### IDE0005: Remove unnecessary using
```csharp
// Bad
using System;
using System.Linq; // unused
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello");
}
}
// Good
using System;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello");
}
}
```
### CA1822: Mark members as static
```csharp
// Bad
class Calculator
{
public int Add(int a, int b) => a + b; // doesn't use instance state
}
// Good
class Calculator
{
public static int Add(int a, int b) => a + b;
}
```
## Severity Mapping
| error | Error |
| warning | Warning |
| info | Info |
## Inline Disabling
```csharp
// Disable for file
#pragma warning disable CA1822
// Disable for block
#pragma warning disable CA1822
public int Method() => 42;
#pragma warning restore CA1822
// Disable inline with SuppressMessage attribute
[System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Performance", "CA1822")]
public int Method() => 42;
```
