ScopedHostedService

A lightweight .NET library for creating hosted services with scoped dependencies.
ScopedHostedService simplifies building IHostedService implementations that need scoped services (like DbContext) without boilerplate or manual scope management.


✅ Why Use ScopedHostedService?

  • Scoped Dependency Support – Automatically creates an IServiceScope for each execution, so you can safely use DbContext or other scoped services.
  • ServiceProvider Validation – Ensures your services are properly registered in DI at startup, catching common misconfigurations early.
  • Cancellation Token Support – Integrates cleanly with IHostedService patterns, passing CancellationToken to your work method.
  • Minimal Boilerplate – Focus on your business logic; no need to manually create scopes or manage lifetimes.
  • Safe Registration – Outer runner classes cannot be accidentally registered as IHostedService.
  • Flexible Execution – Works for loops, one-shot tasks, or any scoped execution logic.

📦 Installation

dotnet add package ScopedHostedService

Example usage

// 1️⃣ Create a runner class
public class HelloRunner : IScopedBackgroundRunner
{
    private readonly ILogger<HelloRunner> _logger;

    public HelloRunner(ILogger<HelloRunner> logger)
    {
        _logger = logger;
    }

    public Task SayHelloAsync(CancellationToken stoppingToken)
    {
        _logger.LogInformation("Hello from ScopedHostedService!");
        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }

    // 2️⃣ Nested hosted service
    public class Service : ScopedBackgroundService<HelloRunner>
    {
        public override Task ExecuteInScopeAsync(HelloRunner runner, CancellationToken stoppingToken)
            => runner.SayHelloAsync(stoppingToken);
    }
}

// 3️⃣ Register and run
var host = Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
    .ConfigureServices(services =>
    {
        services.AddLogging(config => config.AddConsole());
        services.AddBackgroundServiceScoped<HelloRunner>();
    })
    .Build();

await host.RunAsync();
