Stratara.Identity.EntityFrameworkCore

Derived. The behaviour described here is specified under openspec/specs/. Those specifications are the source; this page explains and illustrates them.

EF Core identity-directory plane for the Stratara stack: user↔tenant membership (many-to-many with tenant-scoped roles), active-tenant selection, and membership-backed authorization.

Contents

  • IdentityDirectoryDbContext<TContext> — standalone DbContext hosting all four directory tables (tenant_membership, active_tenant, setting_entry, api_key); derive a concrete context and own its migrations. To fold these into an existing context instead, call modelBuilder.ApplyIdentityDirectoryModel() in its OnModelCreating.
  • ModelBuilder.ApplyIdentityDirectoryModel() — adds the same tables to an existing context (for example your ASP.NET Identity context) so they share one migration lineage.
  • AddTenantMembershipStore<TContext>() — EF-backed ITenantMembershipStore: forward lookup (a user's tenants), reverse lookup (a tenant's members), upsert, GDPR sweeps per user/tenant, and membership-guarded active-tenant switching.
  • MembershipAuthorizationProvider / MembershipAuthorizationProvider<TUser> — the framework's default IAuthorizationProvider: role checks pass on tenant-scoped membership roles, the TUser variant additionally on global ASP.NET Identity roles (platform roles).
  • AddMembershipCrossTenantAuthorizer(...) — membership-backed ICrossTenantAuthorizer for strict tenant isolation, with configurable cross-tenant roles for the operator-impersonation path (platform administrators without membership in the target tenant).
  • AddPermissionCatalog(...) + AddCatalogPermissionResolver[<TUser>]() — the application's code-declared permission vocabulary with role grants, resolved from membership roles (and optionally global ASP.NET Identity roles) for [RequirePermission] enforcement and HTTP permission policies.
  • AddApiKeyStore<TContext>() — API keys and personal access tokens: stk_-prefixed 256-bit keys (hash-only storage), fail-closed validation with expiry/revocation, erasure sweeps. Machine keys are materialized as tenant memberships, so they flow through the same role/permission plane as human actors; PATs act as their bound user. ImportAsync stores a machine key the caller already holds (generated with ApiKeyFormat.CreateRawKey()) for setups where the key must exist before boot — idempotent, never mutating an already-stored key.
  • AddSettingCatalog(...) + AddSettingStore<TContext>() — scoped settings plane: code-declared SettingDefinitions, row-per-key EF storage (setting_entry), a Subject-fed ISettingProvider fallback chain (user-in-tenant → user → tenant → global → configuration → default), transparent AES-GCM encryption for IsEncrypted definitions, and per-user/per-tenant erasure sweeps.
  • AddTenantMembershipStoreFromContextFactory<TContext>(), AddApiKeyStoreFromContextFactory<TContext>(), AddSettingStoreFromContextFactory<TContext>() — the same three stores, taking a fresh context per operation from IDbContextFactory<TContext> instead of sharing the request's. See below.

One context for the request, or one per operation

The plain registrations give every directory store in a request the same context instance. A database context serves one operation at a time, so directory work issued concurrently inside one request fails on whichever operation arrives second — at the call site that lost the race, not the one that introduced the concurrency. Sharing also means a store's own commit commits whatever else the consumer has left unsaved on that context.

The …FromContextFactory variants remove both: each operation creates its own context and disposes it. In exchange, a store write no longer takes part in a transaction the consumer opened on their own scoped context. That trade is why the shared registration stays the default rather than being replaced.

They require AddDbContextFactory<TContext>(); a missing registration fails at first resolution. Keep the factory's options aligned with the scoped registration — interceptors, query filters and conventions are configured per registration, not per context type. Calling both variants for the same store leaves whichever ran first in place; they do not compose.

Three fixes to the same complaint: a host composed exactly as the documentation describes did not
start. Each one was a registration the composites assumed somebody else had made — a tracer, a unit
of work, a Redis connection — and each is now made by the registration that needs it. Nothing that
already worked changes: every fix defers to a registration the host makes itself, in either order,
so the lines a working host added to get past these gaps can simply be deleted. Additive on every
published surface.

### Fixed

- **A host without Redis starts and dispatches.** Every composite that carries a dispatcher
 registered the projection-replay state, and its only implementation took a Redis connection that
 no composite registers, so a host composed as documented failed at its first dispatch unless it
 also ran Redis and called `AddCaching()`. `AddProjectionReplayState()` now chooses at first
 resolution: with a registered `IConnectionMultiplexer` the Redis-backed state as before, without
 one an in-process state with the same lease semantics — and a warning, once at start-up
 (`104_012`), that replay coordination is confined to that process, so a replay requested there
 suppresses publication there only. A deployment whose replay must reach several hosts registers
 the shared connection, in either order. Redis-backed hosts observe no change.
- **Registering a store context now registers its unit of work.**
 `AddNpgsqlWriteDbContextFactory<T>()` registered the context factory, the context and the default
 connection resolver but not the `IWriteUnitOfWork` that the event source, the outbox dispatcher and
 the command worker take from the container — and nothing else in the published packages did, so a
 host composed exactly as documented failed at its first command with a dependency-injection error.
 The write registration now try-adds a scoped `IWriteUnitOfWork` over its context, and
 `AddNpgsqlReadDbContextFactory<T>()` try-adds `IProjectionsUnitOfWork` and `IReadUnitOfWork`
 likewise. A unit of work the host registers itself, before or after, is still the one used; a
 hand-written registration can simply be deleted.
- **`AddMediator()` no longer requires the host to register an OpenTelemetry `Tracer`.** The
 mediator traces every dispatch and obtained its tracer from the host, but nothing registered one,
 so a host that called `AddMediator()` and nothing else failed at the first resolve of `IMediator`.
 `AddMediator()` now registers a fallback that emits the dispatch spans from the framework's
 `Stratara.Application` activity source — a host that subscribes to framework telemetry sees them,
 a host that subscribes to nothing pays for nothing. A `Tracer` the host registers, before or after
 `AddMediator()`, is still the one used, so no existing host changes behaviour; the registration
 line can simply be deleted. The samples, the README and the package README no longer carry it.
