Examples

Create builder

To get the script looking like this

[Setup]
AppName=BimTools.Support
AppVersion=1.2.5.1634640046
DefaultDirName={userappdata}\SupportTools
PrivilegesRequired=lowest
OutputBaseFilename=Tools.Support_2021_1.2.5.1634640046
SetupIconFile=ToolsIcon.ico
UninstallDisplayIcon=ToolsIcon.ico
DisableDirPage=yes

[Files]
Source: "bin\*"; DestDir: "{app}"; Flags: ignoreversion recursesubdirs; 
Source: "SupportTools.addin"; DestDir: "{userappdata}\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2019"; 
Source: "bin\Fonts\GraphikLCG-Medium.ttf"; DestDir: "{autofonts}"; Flags: onlyifdestfileexists uninsneveruninstall; FontInstall: "Graphik LCG"; 
Source: "bin\Fonts\GraphikLCG-Regular.ttf"; DestDir: "{autofonts}"; Flags: onlyifdestfileexists uninsneveruninstall; FontInstall: "Graphik LCG";

inherit your builder class from IssBuilder base class

public class DemoBuilder : IssBuilder
{
    public DemoBuilder()
    {
        Setup.Create("BimTools.Support")
            .AppVersion("1.2.5.1634640046")
            .DefaultDirName(@"{userappdata}\SupportTools")
            .PrivilegesRequired(PrivilegesRequired.Lowest)
            .OutputBaseFilename("Tools.Support_2021_1.2.5.1634640046")
            .SetupIconFile("ToolsIcon.ico")
            .UninstallDisplayIcon("ToolsIcon.ico")
            .DisableDirPage(YesNo.Yes);
    
        Files.CreateEntry(source: @"bin\*", destDir: InnoConstants.App)
            .Flags(FileFlags.IgnoreVersion | FileFlags.RecurseSubdirs);
        Files.CreateEntry(source: "SupportTools.addin", destDir: @"{userappdata}\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2019");
        Files.CreateEntry(source: @"bin\Fonts\GraphikLCG-Medium.ttf", destDir: @"{autofonts}")
            .FontInstall("Graphik LCG")
            .Flags(FileFlags.OnlyIfDestFileExists | FileFlags.UninsNeverUninstall);
        Files.CreateEntry(source: @"bin\Fonts\GraphikLCG-Regular.ttf", destDir: @"{autofonts}")
            .FontInstall("Graphik LCG")
            .Flags(FileFlags.OnlyIfDestFileExists | FileFlags.UninsNeverUninstall);
    }
}

or use BuilderUtils.CreateBuilder()

var builder = BuilderUtils.CreateBuilder(builder =>
{
    builder.Setup.Create("BimTools.Support")
        .AppVersion("1.2.5.1634640046")
        .DefaultDirName(@"{userappdata}\SupportTools")
        .PrivilegesRequired(PrivilegesRequired.Lowest)
        .OutputBaseFilename("Tools.Support_2021_1.2.5.1634640046")
        .SetupIconFile("ToolsIcon.ico")
        .UninstallDisplayIcon("ToolsIcon.ico")
        .DisableDirPage(YesNo.Yes);
        
    builder.Files.CreateEntry(source: @"bin\*", destDir: InnoConstants.App)
        .Flags(FileFlags.IgnoreVersion | FileFlags.RecurseSubdirs);
    builder.Files.CreateEntry(source: "SupportTools.addin", destDir: @"{userappdata}\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2019");
    builder.Files.CreateEntry(source: @"bin\Fonts\GraphikLCG-Medium.ttf", destDir: @"{autofonts}")
        .FontInstall("Graphik LCG")
        .Flags(FileFlags.OnlyIfDestFileExists | FileFlags.UninsNeverUninstall);
    builder.Files.CreateEntry(source: @"bin\Fonts\GraphikLCG-Regular.ttf", destDir: @"{autofonts}")
        .FontInstall("Graphik LCG")
        .Flags(FileFlags.OnlyIfDestFileExists | FileFlags.UninsNeverUninstall);
);

Getting results

String result

var builder = new DemoBuilder();
var result = builder.ToString();

Script file

var builder = new DemoBuilder();
builder.Build("demo.iss");

// or

BuilderUtils.Build<DemoBuilder>("demo.iss");

// or

BuilderUtils.Build(
    builder =>
    {
        builder.Setup.Create("BimTools.Support")
            .AppVersion("1.2.5.1634640046")
            .DefaultDirName(@"{userappdata}\SupportTools");
        builder.Files.CreateEntry(@"bin\*", InnoConstants.App)
            .Flags(FileFlags.IgnoreVersion | FileFlags.RecurseSubdirs);
    }, 
    "demo.iss");

Directives

You can insert preprocessor directives at the beginning of your script using Directives section

Directives
    .Define("MyAppName", "My Program")
    .Include(@"c:\dir\file.iss")
    .Include("<file.iss>")
    .FreeText(";comments")
    .Undef("var1");

Where FreeText() allows to insert any text to the script as is.

Not implemented sections and parameters

If the section you want to insert is not implemented you can use either Sections.CreateKeyValueSection() or Sections.CreateParameterSection() methods. To insert not implemented parameters/directives of any kind of section use Parameter() method.

// for key-value sections
Sections.CreateKeyValueSection("Messages")
    .CreateEntry()
    .Parameter("BeveledLabel", @"Inno Setup")
    .Parameter("HelpTextNote", @"/PORTABLE=1%nEnable portable mode.");
    
// for parameter sections
Sections.CreateParameterSection("Registry")
    .CreateEntry()
        .Parameter("Root", RegistryKeys.HKU)
        .Parameter("Subkey", @"Software\My Company\My Program")
        .Parameter("ValueName", "Name")
        .Parameter("ValueType", ValueTypes.String)
        .Parameter("ValueData", "Test app");
