NPv.Uow.Abstractions

Lightweight, transport-agnostic Unit of Work contract for .NET.
Designed to keep transaction concerns independent from CQS or Messaging layers.

✨ Provided Interfaces

Interface Purpose
IUnitOfWork Coordinates a transactional boundary and supports async disposal 
namespace NPv.Uow.Abstractions;

public interface IUnitOfWork : IAsyncDisposable
{
    Task CommitAsync();
}

🔧 When to use

  • Wrap execution of root commands or application services in a single transactional scope
  • Keep persistence concerns separate from web transport (no HTTP middleware required)
  • Enable Outbox or other post-commit hooks in concrete implementations without coupling contracts to a messaging library

🚀 Quick start (usage pattern)

public class UnitOfWorkCommandExecutor(
    ICommandBuilder commands,        // from your CQS layer
    IUnitOfWork uow)                 // from NPv.Uow.Abstractions
{
    public async Task ExecuteAsync<TContext>(TContext ctx)
        where TContext : ICommandContext
    {
        await using (uow)
        {
            await commands.ExecuteAsync(ctx);
            await uow.CommitAsync();
        }
    }
}

The interface is intentionally tiny so different implementations (EF Core, Dapper + manual tx, etc.) can plug in without leaking details.

Author's Note

This library grew out of my long-standing personal interest in structuring and publishing open source packages. Over time, I’ve revisited and refined earlier internal utilities and ideas, giving them a more consistent shape and preparing them for wider reuse. Along the way, I’ve also taken the opportunity to explore how open source distribution and licensing work in the .NET ecosystem.

It’s a small step toward something I’ve always wanted to try — sharing practical, minimal tools that reflect years of learning, experimentation, and refinement.

Hopefully, someone finds it useful.
