Purview.ValueObjects

Source-generated scalar and complex value objects for .NET.

Adds F#-style single-case types to C#. Mark a partial struct or class with [Scalar] or [ValueObject] and the source generator produces Create/Hydrate factories, normalization (OnNormalize), validation (OnValidate), Empty instances, equality, comparison, implicit conversions, and JSON converters.

  • DTOs – strong types with serialization/deserialization and business rules.
  • Entity Framework – value objects map cleanly onto JSON columns via ScalarJsonConverterFactory.
  • Domain models – the F#-style single-case union pattern in C#.

Quick start

[Scalar]
public readonly partial record struct EmailAddress
{
    public string Value { get; }

    static partial void OnNormalize(ref string value) => value = value?.Trim().ToLowerInvariant()!;

    static partial void OnValidate(string value)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(value))
            throw new ArgumentException("Email is required.", nameof(value));
    }
}

var email = EmailAddress.Create("Demo@Example.com");
// email.Value == "demo@example.com"

JSON serialization

Scalar value objects serialize as their underlying value. Register the converter factory on your JsonSerializerOptions:

var options = new JsonSerializerOptions();
options.Converters.Add(new ScalarJsonConverterFactory());

Use the same options for Entity Framework JSON columns:

modelBuilder
    .Entity<Customer>()
    .Property(c => c.Email)
    .HasColumnType("jsonb");

See the samples/ folder for end-to-end examples.
