Unio.AspNetCore

ASP.NET Core integration for Unio discriminated unions.

Targets .NET 9, .NET 10 and .NET 11 RC1. Supports unions with 2–9 branches.

Native AOT

The package enables IsAotCompatible. For response bodies, pass a source-generated JSON context:

using System.Text.Json.Serialization;
using Unio;
using Unio.AspNetCore.MinimalApi;
using Unio.Types;

var builder = WebApplication.CreateSlimBuilder(args);
var app = builder.Build();
app.MapGet("/users/{id:int}", (int id) =>
{
    Unio<User, NotFound> result = id == 1 ? new User(1, "Ada") : new NotFound();
    return result.ToHttpResult(ApiJsonContext.Default);
});
app.Run();

public sealed record User(int Id, string Name);

[JsonSerializable(typeof(User))]
internal partial class ApiJsonContext : JsonSerializerContext;

Enable <PublishAot>true</PublishAot> in the application project and publish for a concrete runtime identifier. The context must contain every possible response body type, including concrete derived types. Marker responses and null values do not require JSON metadata; null produces an empty 200 response. Missing metadata throws NotSupportedException rather than falling back to reflection.

Alternatively, register the context through ConfigureHttpJsonOptions and use the existing parameterless ToHttpResult() overload. AOT applications must provide JSON metadata through one of these paths.

VerifyReferenceAotCompatibility is disabled only for this extension because Microsoft.AspNetCore.App references framework assemblies that lack AOT metadata. AOT/trim analyzers remain enabled. The runnable example validates native JSON execution in CI.

Minimal API Integration

Automatically maps Unio<...> types containing known marker types to HTTP status codes:

using Unio.AspNetCore.MinimalApi;

app.MapGet("/users/{id}", (int id, IUserService svc) =>
{
    Unio<User, NotFound, Forbidden> result = svc.GetUser(id);
    return result.ToHttpResult(); // User→200, NotFound→404, Forbidden→403
});

Convention Mapping

Marker Type HTTP Status
BadRequest 400
Unauthorized 401
Forbidden 403
NotFound 404
Conflict 409
Created 201
Accepted 202
NoContent 204
(other) 200 OK
