Stratara.Validation

License: MIT.

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.

### Changed

- **License changed from FSL-1.1-MIT to the MIT License.** Stratara is now OSI-approved open
 source — free for any use, including commercial, with no competition clause and no two-year
 conversion delay. The previous Functional Source License (source-available, converting to MIT
 two years after each release) has been replaced outright. Package metadata now declares the
 SPDX expression `MIT` (`PackageLicenseExpression`), so nuget.org renders a standard clickable
 MIT license label instead of an embedded custom-license file. The `LICENSE` file at the repo
 root now contains the standard MIT text and is still bundled into every package. No code or API
 changes accompany this — it is purely a licensing and metadata change. Previously published
 versions (3.0.20 through 3.1.5) remain under the FSL terms they shipped with; this change applies
 to all versions released from here on.
