Overview

Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Abstraction is the shared contract library of the RecroGrid Framework ecosystem.

Its main responsibility is to define the common request/response types, service interfaces, models, constants, and infrastructure primitives that are used by other RGF packages. In practice, this package is the common language between the client-side RecroGrid Framework libraries and the server-side RecroGrid Framework Core APIs.

This relationship is easy to miss when looking only at this project in isolation, but it is central to how the framework works:

• Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Client implements IRgfApiService
• Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Client sends RgfGridRequest payloads to the server-side Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Core API endpoints under /rgf/api/...
• the server responds with shared contract types such as RgfResult<RgfGridResult>, RgfResult<RgfFormResult>, RgfResult<RgfFilterResult>, and related models
• Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Client.Blazor and Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Client.Blazor.UI consume these shared contracts to render grids, forms, menus, filters, charts, and security-aware UI behavior

Because both sides rely on the same abstractions, Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Abstraction helps keep the client and server aligned on payload shape, metadata, and behavioral conventions.

What The Package Contains

API contracts

The Contracts/API folder contains the core DTOs used to communicate with the server-side Core APIs, including:

• RgfSessionParams
• RgfGridRequest
• RgfResult<T>
• RgfGridResult
• RgfFormResult
• RgfFilterResult
• RgfUserState

These types describe RecroGrid sessions, entity requests, form payloads, filtering, charting, user state, and general operation results.

Service abstractions

The Contracts/Services folder defines service interfaces that higher-level packages implement or consume, for example:

• IRgfApiService
• IRgfMenuService
• IRecroSecService
• IRecroDictService
• IRgfEventNotificationService

This keeps API access, security checks, dictionary lookup, menu loading, and event notifications decoupled from concrete client implementations.

Shared models

The Models folder contains the metadata and data-shaping types that describe the RecroGrid domain, such as:

• entity and property metadata
• form and filter definitions
• grid, chart, column, and aggregation settings
• menu descriptors
• dynamic payload containers

These models are reused across multiple packages so grid rendering and server responses can evolve together around one contract set.

Infrastructure and helpers

The package also includes reusable infrastructure elements such as:

• API request/response abstractions
• security-related types
• events and dispatching helpers
• framework constants and header keys
• utility extensions and attributes

How It Fits Into The RGF Stack

At a high level, the flow looks like this:

1. A client-side handler or component creates a shared request object such as RgfGridRequest.
2. Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Client serializes and sends that request to a server-side Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Core API endpoint.
3. The server processes the request and returns shared response contracts from Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Abstraction.
4. Client-side packages interpret those contracts to render UI and execute framework behavior.

This makes Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Abstraction the interoperability layer of the framework rather than a standalone end-user feature package.

Typical Consumers

Recrovit.RecroGridFramework.Abstraction is typically referenced by:

• client packages that call the RecroGrid Framework Core APIs
• Blazor/UI packages that render RecroGrid data and metadata
• shared libraries that need access to RecroGrid contract types
• server-side components that want to use the same DTOs and abstractions as the client
