Stratara.Validation

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

Vendor-neutral request validation for Stratara's CQRS pipeline. A mediator pipeline behavior runs your IValidator<T> implementations before the handler and throws an aggregated StrataraValidationException when validation fails — no third-party validation dependency in the default path.

Quick start

// 1. Register the behavior (outermost) + discover validators.
builder.Services
    .AddStrataraValidation()
    .AddValidatorsFromAssemblyContaining<IAppMarker>();

// 2. Write a validator (the contracts live in Stratara.Abstractions.Validation).
public sealed class CreateOrderValidator : IValidator<CreateOrder>
{
    public ValueTask<ValidationResult> ValidateAsync(CreateOrder cmd, CancellationToken ct = default)
        => ValueTask.FromResult(string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(cmd.CustomerId)
            ? new ValidationResult([new ValidationFailure(nameof(cmd.CustomerId), "Customer is required.")])
            : ValidationResult.Success);
}

// 3. Catch the failure in your global handler and map it to your error model.
catch (StrataraValidationException ex)
{
    // ex.Failures -> RFC-7807 ProblemDetails 400, your error codes, etc.
}

How it works

  • AddStrataraValidation() registers IPipelineBehavior for both request shapes (IRequest and IRequest<TResult>). Register it before other behaviors so validation runs outermost — before authorization, auditing, and the handler.
  • All validators for a request run; their failures are aggregated.
  • Severity policy: only ValidationSeverity.Error blocks (throws StrataraValidationException). Warning and Info failures pass through and are logged.

Contracts

The validation contracts (IValidator<T>, ValidationResult, ValidationFailure, ValidationSeverity, StrataraValidationException) live in Stratara.Abstractions (namespace Stratara.Abstractions.Validation) so consumers can implement validators and catch the exception without referencing this behavior package.

The contract shape is FluentValidation-compatible; an optional Stratara.Validation.FluentValidation adapter can be shipped to plug FluentValidation validators into the same pipeline.

### 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.
