Stratara.Outbox.AzureServiceBus

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

License: MIT.

Azure Service Bus implementation of Stratara.Abstractions.Messaging.IMessageBus. Publishes JSON-serialized messages to topics and exposes a subscription helper that wires up a Service Bus processor with per-message exception classification:

  • success → CompleteMessageAsync
  • ConcurrencyExceptionAbandonMessageAsync (Service Bus redelivers)
  • any other exception → DeadLetterMessageAsync (explicit DLQ with the exception type as reason)

System-level errors (connection drops, auth failures) arrive via ProcessErrorAsync and are logged; the Service Bus client owns the reconnect / retry policy for those.

Install

dotnet add package Stratara.Outbox.AzureServiceBus

Register the bus in your DI composition — one call wires the ServiceBusClient, the envelope options and the IMessageBus implementation:

// Connection string:
builder.Services.AddAzureServiceBus(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("ServiceBus")!);

// Or, preferred in Azure — managed identity, no secret in configuration:
builder.Services.AddAzureServiceBusWithManagedIdentity("my-namespace.servicebus.windows.net");

The AzureServiceBusBus implementation is internal; register it through these extensions rather than by naming the type.

The explicitly-chosen transport wins. AddAzureServiceBus replaces the IMessageBus registration, so it takes effect even when the RabbitMQ umbrella (builder.AddMessaging(), which the worker composites call) already claimed the slot. Still use one transport per host — calling both is a configuration smell — but an explicit AddAzureServiceBus will no longer be a silent no-op behind a composite.

Notes

Pre-3.0 this implementation lived inside Stratara.Outbox.RabbitMQ. As of 3.0 the two transports are separate packages so a consumer who only wants RabbitMQ does not drag the Azure Service Bus SDK into the dependency tree (and vice versa).

Two operational fixes, both found while a consumer rolled out bus-envelope signing and reasoned
about rebuilding its read models: a projection replay now survives a passing failure, and an
integrity failure says whether the signature was absent or wrong. Additive on every published
surface.

### Added

- **A projection replay retries a failing batch before it gives up.** Each batch — the read from
 the event store and the application of its entries — now runs under a new named policy,
 `ResilienceNames.ProjectionReplayBatch`: five attempts in all, exponential backoff from one second
 with jitter between them, any exception except cancellation. A read-store timeout or a
 dropped connection mid-rebuild no longer ends the replay; a failure that persists through every
 attempt ends it exactly as before, with the same failure record. A retried batch is applied
 again from its first entry in a fresh scope, which relies on the guarantee projections already
 give under at-least-once delivery: a second application converges (see *Write handlers that
 converge rather than accumulate* in the projection guide). Each failed attempt logs a new
 warning, `104_011`. `AddResiliencePipelines` registers six policies rather than five. Nothing
 about truncation, ordering, progress, the failure record or the lease changes.

### Changed

- **An integrity failure now says whether the signature was absent or wrong, and the existing
 warning and error ids fire only for a signature that is present and does not verify.** An
 unsigned envelope — what every not-yet-restarted publisher emits during a `Permissive` roll —
 was logged as *"signature mismatch"* under the same id as a key mismatch or tampering, so an
 operator could not tell a rolling restart from an attack without correlating host start times.
 Four new event ids carry the unsigned case: `105_004` (command, permissive), `111_004` (event
 bundle, permissive), `105_105` (command, strict) and `111_105` (event bundle, strict). The
 existing `105_003`, `111_003`, `105_104` and `111_104` keep their numbers and their level but
 now mean a present signature that did not verify; an alert keyed on one of them goes quiet
 during a roll instead of firing for every unsigned message. Strict-mode rejections name the
 case in their exception message. `BusEnvelopeIntegrityVerifier.Verify` gains an overload with
 `out BusEnvelopeIntegrityFailure` (`None`, `Absent`, `Invalid`); the existing overload and the
 `BusEnvelopeIntegrityResult` values are unchanged. An absent signature no longer reaches the
 signer, which already answered `false` for it.
