automapper issue in nested entity - model-view-controller

Question

Entity:
public class AccountEntity: MasterEntity
{
public AccountType AccountType { get; set; }
public DepartmentEntity Department { get; set; }
public string LeadSource { get; set; }
public ResourceEntity AccountManager { get; set; }
public AccountQualificationStatus QualificationStatus { get; set; }
}
public class DepartmentEntity : MasterEntity
{
}
public class ResourceEntity : MasterEntity
{
public string Email { get; set; }
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string MiddleName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
}
public abstract class MasterEntity: Entity
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Code { get; set; }
}
Model
public class Accounts
{
private string depname;
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public int Code { get; set; }
public string AccountType { get; set; }
public string Department { get; set; }
}
public AccountMappingProfile()
{
CreateMap<Account, AccountTest>().ReverseMap();
CreateMap<Opportunity, OpportunityEntity>().ReverseMap();
CreateMap<Accounts, AccountEntity>().ReverseMap();
CreateMap<Resource, ResourceEntity>().ReverseMap();
CreateMap<Projects, ProjectEntity>().ReverseMap();
}
public static class AccountMapper
{
private static readonly Lazy<IMapper> Lazy = new Lazy<IMapper>(() =>
{
var config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg => {
cfg.ShouldMapProperty = p => p.GetMethod.IsPublic || p.GetMethod.IsAssembly;
cfg.AddProfile<AccountMappingProfile>();
});
var mapper = config.CreateMapper();
return mapper;
});
public static IMapper Mapper => Lazy.Value;
}
I am able to fetch resource details .while I am fetching accounts with department and resources, the value for department is giving me null after automapping.
public async Task<IEnumerable<Accounts>> GetAccounts()
{
try
{
var accounts = await _context.Account.Include(c=>c.Director).ToListAsync();
// accounts = await _context.Account.Include(c => c.Department).ToListAsync();
return AccountMapper.Mapper.Map<List<Accounts>>(accounts);
}
}
controller method:
public async Task<IEnumerable<Accounts>> GetClients()
{
var result = await _repository.GetAccounts();
return result;
}
if I am uncommenting the code to include department, its is giving the object name.
I need to get the department details as well. how can i get that.Department entity is inheriting master entity.
