Fluent, XML-less, compile safe, automated, convention-based mappings for NHibernate. Get your fluent on.

Install using the FluentNHibernate NuGet package:

dotnet add package FluentNHibernate

• Read the introduction.

• Get latest version from NuGet

  • .NETCore2.0, NETStandard2.0 or NET 4.6.1 with NHibernate 5.x
  • .NET 4.0 with NHibernate 4.x
  • .NET 3.5 with NHibernate 3 if you like it vintage

• Create your first project.

Once you've followed the above, you can compare our auto mapping to our fluent interface to see which suits your application, read through our API documentation, or just see what's available for reading in our wiki.
