Stratara.ServiceDefaults
Derived. The behaviour described here is specified under
openspec/specs/. Those specifications are the source; this page explains and illustrates them.
License: MIT.
Cross-host observability defaults for the Stratara stack. Reference from every host (API, worker) to get OpenTelemetry + Serilog wired up with sensible defaults.
What's in the box
| Extension | Purpose |
|---|---|
ConfigureOpenTelemetry |
Logging + metrics + tracing with HTTP, EF Core, RabbitMQ, runtime instrumentation; OTLP exporter wired up automatically when OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT is set. Accepts optional MeterProviderBuilder / TracerProviderBuilder callbacks for host-specific extras. |
ConfigureSerilog |
Structured logging with destructuring attributes, async console sink, OTLP sink (gRPC or HTTP/Protobuf based on OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL), dev-mode log cleanup at {Path.GetTempPath()}/stratara-logs/{service-name}.log — the OS temp directory, so not literally /tmp on Windows or macOS. |
ConfigureSerilogBootstrapLogger |
Sets up Log.Logger as a bootstrap logger before the host is built, so early-startup errors surface to the console. |
Quick start
builder.ConfigureOpenTelemetry();
builder.ConfigureSerilog();
It deletes your development log file on start-up
In the Development environment only, configuring Serilog deletes the current log file before
opening it: %TEMP%/stratara-logs/{OTEL_SERVICE_NAME}.log, where the service name falls back to
Unknown when OTEL_SERVICE_NAME is unset. The intent is a clean file per debugging session rather
than one that grows across dozens of restarts.
Two consequences worth knowing before they cost you an hour:
- A crash you wanted to read is gone the moment you restart to reproduce it. Copy the file before restarting, or point the sink elsewhere for that session.
- Two development services with no
OTEL_SERVICE_NAMEshareUnknown.logand delete each other's. Set the variable per service.
Outside Development nothing is deleted.

Prerelease dependencies. This package transitively pulls in two prerelease OpenTelemetry instrumentation packages that have no stable release yet:
OpenTelemetry.Instrumentation.EntityFrameworkCore(beta) andRabbitMQ.Client.OpenTelemetry(RC). Both ride the stable OpenTelemetry 1.15.x core. NU5104 is suppressed in this csproj with that justification — consumers inherit the prerelease deps transitively. We will swap to GA as soon as the vendors ship stable.

Three findings from a proof of concept of an alternative execution model, each fixed on the shipped
path. A message a handler cannot take is now redelivered a bounded number of times and then
dead-lettered on both brokers instead of being dropped on one of them; an opt-in closes the window
in which a committed fact could be lost between the commit and its publication; and a version
collision is a concurrency conflict on every supported database provider, not only on PostgreSQL.
Additive on every published surface, with one operator step on RabbitMQ: the worker queues change
name and type, and the old ones are deleted once drained.
### Added
- `Outbox:DurableBundles` (`OutboxOptions.DurableBundles`, default `false`): an event bundle is
written to the outbox table in the transaction that commits its events, published after the
commit, and removed once the bus has accepted it — so a process that ends between the commit and
the publish no longer loses the bundle for every subscription. `IEventBundleOutboxDispatcher`
gains `StoresBundlesWithCommit` and `StoreEventBundleAsync`, and `IOutboxRepository` an
`AddAsync(Guid id, …)` overload, all default-implemented so a consumer's own implementations keep
compiling and keep bus-first. `AddOutboxDispatcher()` now binds the `Outbox` section when the host
carries a configuration. Log event `106_108` records a stored copy the bus accepted but the
framework could not remove. The default path is unchanged; the specification now names its window.
- `IStoreConflictDetector` in `Stratara.Abstractions.EventSourcing`: recognises a database
provider's refusal of a duplicate stream version, so the event source can surface it as a
`ConcurrencyException` on that provider. `AddNpgsqlWriteDbContextFactory<T>()` registers the
PostgreSQL detector and `AddStrataraTestingEventStore<T>()` the SQLite one; detectors accumulate,
so a host on another provider adds its own without displacing the framework's. A host that
registers its write context without `AddNpgsqlWriteDbContextFactory<T>()` gets no detector and
no longer sees a `ConcurrencyException` on a version collision: it switches to that registration,
or registers an `IStoreConflictDetector` of its own that recognises PostgreSQL's SQL state
`23505` in the exception chain (the framework's implementations are not public).
- `MessageRetryOptions` (`Stratara.Abstractions.Messaging`, section `MessageRetry`):
`MaxDeliveryAttempts` (default 3) and `MaxConflictRequeues` (default 100), bound and validated by
`AddMessaging()` and by both `AddAzureServiceBus*` registrations. `MessageRetryPolicy` is the
decision both transports apply. Log event `108_110` and counter `messaging.dead_lettered`
(tags `messaging.topic`, `messaging.subscription`, `reason`) record every dead-lettering; `108_111`
warns when a Service Bus subscription's `MaxDeliveryCount` is below the bounds.
### Changed
- A save now maps and signs its event bundle before the transaction opens, so a save with no
session context — or a signer that fails — fails before anything is committed rather than after
the commit with the events stranded unpublished.
- **RabbitMQ worker subscriptions are quorum queues with a dead-letter queue, under a new name.**
A message whose handler throws is redelivered up to `MaxDeliveryAttempts` times (a concurrency
conflict up to `MaxConflictRequeues` times) and then moved to `<subscription>.dead-letter`; it was
rejected and dropped by the broker before (conflicts were requeued without bound). Because a
classic queue cannot be redeclared as a quorum queue, the worker queue is now
`<subscription>.v2`. **Rollout:** deploy — old and new consumers share the exchange and both
receive every message — then delete the old `<subscription>` queue once it is drained, or it fills
forever. Needs RabbitMQ 3.8+.
- **Azure Service Bus applies the same bounds.** A handler failure is abandoned for redelivery until
`MaxDeliveryAttempts` and then dead-lettered with reason `failure` (it was dead-lettered on the
first failure with the exception type as reason); a conflict is dead-lettered by the framework
past `MaxConflictRequeues` with reason `conflict` (it was left to the broker's `MaxDeliveryCount`).
Set the subscription's `MaxDeliveryCount` at least one above the larger bound.
- `AddAzureServiceBus` and `AddAzureServiceBusWithManagedIdentity` also register a
`ServiceBusAdministrationClient` (try-add) for the advisory limit check.
### Fixed
- The `MediatorCommandWorker` remark said a failing command was dead-lettered; on RabbitMQ it was
dropped. It is now dead-lettered on both brokers, and the remark and the
`BusEnvelopeIntegrityMode.Strict` remark say what happens.
- A duplicate stream version on the SQLite test store (`Stratara.Testing.EntityFrameworkCore`) now
surfaces as `ConcurrencyException`, as it does on PostgreSQL, instead of a bare
`DbUpdateException`. A test that asserted the old exception type needs the new one.
