WebApiSkeleton.Contracts.Validation 1.1.1

WebApiSkeleton.Contracts.Validation

WebApiSkeleton.Contracts.Validation contains MediatR PipelineBehavior implementation to validate incoming requests that implement using FluentValidation

Usage

Steps to add contract validation:

• Create validators that are inherited from AbstractValidator<T> for needed requests
• Use AddContractValidatorsFromAssembly (or AddValidatorsFromAssembly from FluentValidation) to add validators to DI
• Add validation behaviors for requests in DI
  • One way is to call AddValidationPipelineBehaviorsFromAssembly that will automatically search for classes that are inherited from AbstractValidator and add for requests that are passed as a generic parameter in DI. If any of these requests are not returning the Result<A> type the InvalidOperationException is thrown.
    • NOTE: in this case ValidationBehavior for request is automatically added, so it is highly recommended to mind the order of IPipelineBehavior implementations added in DI.
  • Another way is to create ValidationBehavior implementations by calling method and then add it manually to DI by passing the pipelineBehavior as a service type and validationBehavior as implementation type. This way order of pipeline behaviors executed for each request is handled more clearly by the user, which is adding them.
