Albatross.Config

Simplified configuration setup for your .Net applications.

Features

  • Use Strong typed configuration class without using the IOptions<> interface.
  • Built-In ProgramSetting and EnvironmentSetting config class.
  • Built-In endpoints configuration key similar to the connectionStrings key provided by default.
  • Validate configuration data using data annotation attributes in the System.DataAnnotation namespace or implement your own validation.
  • Custom implementation of IHostEnvironment to save us from changing prod data by accident. See HELP! My developers are also DBAs.

Quick Start

Albatross.Config allows users to create strong typed config classes to manage the configuration data. The config class requires a base class of Albatross.Config.ConfigBase and a constructor with a single parameter of type Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.IConfiguration.

Here is an example of appsettings.json file and the matching config class.

{
	"connectionStrings" : {
		"azure-db" : "..."
	},
	"endpoints": {
		"ms-graph" : "..."
	},
	"my-config" : {
		"configData" : "..."
	}
}

public class MyConfig : ConfigBase {
	public MyConfig(IConfiguration configuration) : base(configuration, "my-config") {
		this.MsGraphicEndPoint = configuration.GetRequiredEndPoint("ms-graph");
		this.MyConnectionString = configuration.GetRequiredConnectionString("azure-db");
	}
	[Required]
	public string ConfigData { get; }
	public string MsGraphicEndPoint { get; }
	public string MyConnectionString { get; }
	public override void Validate() {
		base.Validate();
	}
}

If the Key of the config class is defined, the json values of the key in the appsettings.json file will be binded to the config class. The Validate method of the class will be invoked after the creation of its instance. An exception will be thrown if there are any validation errors.

Once the config class is registered using DI, it can be injected directly to classes as a dependency. The AddConfig method by default registers the config class as a Singleton. AddConfig(false) will register the class with a scoped lifetime. The scoped lifetime is useful in the rare case of config data change.

	public static IServiceCollection RegisterMyServices(this IServiceCollection services) {
		services.AddConfig<MyConfig>();
		return services;
	}
