Reactive, strongly-typed configuration layering for .NET

Cocoar.Configuration

License: Apache-2.0 NuGet Downloads

Zero ceremony configuration that updates itself. Define a class, add a rule, inject it — no IOptions<T> wrappers, no Configure<T>() calls.

Install

dotnet add package Cocoar.Configuration              # Core library (console apps)
dotnet add package Cocoar.Configuration.DI            # + Microsoft.Extensions.DI
dotnet add package Cocoar.Configuration.AspNetCore     # + health endpoints, feature flags

You only need one — each includes everything above it. Requires .NET 8+.

Quick Start

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

builder.AddCocoarConfiguration(c => c
    .UseConfiguration(rule => [
        rule.For<AppSettings>().FromFile("appsettings.json"),
        rule.For<AppSettings>().FromEnvironment("APP_"),
    ]));

var app = builder.Build();

// Inject directly — no wrapper
app.MapGet("/settings", (AppSettings settings) => new
{
    settings.AppName,
    settings.MaxRetries
});

app.Run();

Key Features

  • Zero Ceremony — Define a class, add a rule, inject it. Just your POCO.
  • Reactive by Default — IReactiveConfig<T> updates automatically when sources change.
  • Atomic Updates — IReactiveConfig<(T1, T2)> guarantees consistent snapshots across types.
  • Explicit Layering — Rules execute in order, last write wins. File, environment, CLI, HTTP.
  • Memory-Safe Secrets — Secret<T> with automatic zeroization and X.509 hybrid encryption.
  • Feature Flags & Entitlements — Strongly-typed, source-generated, with expiry health monitoring.
  • Health Monitoring — Per-rule status tracking, OpenTelemetry metrics, ASP.NET Core health checks.
  • Compile-Time Validation — Roslyn analyzers catch configuration errors in your IDE.
  • First-Class Testing — CocoarTestConfiguration with AsyncLocal<T> isolation.
