Stratara.Mediator

License: FSL-1.1-MIT (Functional Source License — source-available; converts to MIT after 2 years). Not OSI-approved OSS.

In-process mediator with DI-resolved handlers and pipeline behaviors. Drop-in replacement for MediatR-style routing without the runtime cost of MethodInfo.Invoke — uses a typed wrapper cache and direct DI dispatch.

Quick start

services.AddMediator()
    .AddCommandHandlersFromAssemblyContaining<Program>()
    .AddQueryHandlersFromAssemblyContaining<Program>()
    .AddPipelineBehaviorWithResult(typeof(LoggingBehavior<,>))
    .AddPipelineBehavior(typeof(LoggingBehavior<>));

// Optional: wrap in authorization decorator
services.AddAuthorizingMediator<MyAuthorizationProvider>();

What's in the box

  • IMediator.HandleAsync<TResult>(IRequest<TResult>, CancellationToken) — routes queries and commands-with-result to IQueryHandler<TRequest, TResult> through any registered IPipelineBehavior<TRequest, TResult> chain.
  • IMediator.HandleAsync<TRequest>(TRequest, CancellationToken) — routes void commands to ICommandHandler<TRequest> through any registered IPipelineBehavior<TRequest> chain.
  • AuthorizingMediator decorator — checks [RequireRole] attributes on the request type via IAuthorizationProvider before delegating to the inner mediator.
  • BucketLockPool — concurrency primitive that serialises IAggregateScopedCommand dispatch per bucket id. Used by message-bus consumers (e.g. Stratara.Infrastructure's MediatorCommandWorker) to keep aggregate writes single-writer.

Pipeline behavior contract

Behaviors run outer-to-inner in DI registration order:

public sealed class LoggingBehavior<TRequest, TResult> : IPipelineBehavior<TRequest, TResult>
    where TRequest : IRequest<TResult>
{
    public async Task<TResult> HandleAsync(
        TRequest request, Func<Task<TResult>> next, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        // before
        var result = await next();
        // after
        return result;
    }
}

Dependencies

  • Stratara.Abstractions — for IMediator/IRequest/ICommand/IQuery/IPipelineBehavior contracts.
  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions.
  • OpenTelemetry.Api — emits an Activity per dispatch under the Stratara.Application source.

No EF Core, no message bus, no event sourcing. Library-safe.

Showing the top 3 NuGet packages that depend on Stratara.Mediator:

Package Downloads
Stratara.Outbox.RabbitMQ

Outbox-pattern command and event dispatch for the Stratara event-sourced stack — RabbitMQ IMessageBus implementation, retry worker, mediator command worker, and Redis-coordinated projection-replay state. Azure Service Bus support ships as the sibling Stratara.Outbox.AzureServiceBus package.

Stratara.Infrastructure

Infrastructure glue for the Stratara framework — authorization decorators, configuration providers, and DI composition helpers that wire Mediator, Outbox, Identity, and EF Core into a hosted app.

Stratara.Validation

Vendor-neutral request validation for the Stratara framework — a mediator pipeline behavior that runs IValidator<T> implementations before the handler and throws an aggregated StrataraValidationException on failure. No FluentValidation dependency; an optional adapter is shipped separately.

### Fixed

- **`FileMasterKeyProvider` now rejects a master KEK that is not exactly 32 bytes at startup.**
 The KEK is used directly as an AES-256-GCM key, which accepts only 16/24/32-byte keys. The
 provider previously required merely *at least* 32 bytes, so a longer KEK (for example the
 48-byte output of `openssl rand -base64 48`, a common HKDF master-key recipe) passed both
 construction and the eager `FileKeyStoreStartupProbe`, then threw
 `CryptographicException: Specified key is not a valid size for this algorithm` on the **first**
 key creation at runtime — defeating the purpose of the boot-time probe. The provider now
 validates the decoded length is exactly 32 bytes and fails fast at boot with an actionable
 message (`Generate one with: openssl rand -base64 32`). A 32-byte KEK is unaffected.
- **`EnvelopeFileKeyStore` is now safe for multiple processes sharing one store file** (for
 example several containers bind-mounting the same host directory). Previously a process only
 read the store once at construction, so a data-encryption key created by another process after
 startup was invisible (`GetDataEncryptionKeyAsync` returned `null`, breaking decryption), and
 two processes creating keys concurrently could overwrite each other's keys or mint colliding
 versions for the same scope. Reads now reload from disk on a cache miss (guarded by the file's
 last-write time to avoid reload storms), and every mutation serializes through an exclusive
 cross-process lock file and re-reads the latest on-disk state before writing. A networked file
 system (NFS/SMB) remains unsupported — it guarantees neither atomic rename nor reliable advisory
 locks.

### Added

- **`LogEvents.KeyManagement.KeyStoreReloaded` (112_006)** — debug-level event emitted when the
 file key store reloads its state from disk to pick up keys written by another process.
