The FlatValidator is a validation library for .NET that delivers an high-performance and memory prudence by using lambda-based and strongly-typed rules.

The FlatValidator.DependencyInjection package extends the FlatValidator package to register all custom inherited validators in the IServiceCollection (Microsoft.Extensions.Dependencyinjection.Abstractions) automatically.

public static IServiceCollection AddCustomValidators(this IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.AddFlatValidatorsFromAssembly(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());

    return services;
}

Quick examples

1. Inheritance of the FlatValidator class

public record UserModel(string Phone, string ShipmentAddress, string PostalCode);

public class UserValidator: FlatValidator<UserModel> 
{
    public UserValidator(IPostalService postalService) 
    {
        ErrorIf(m => m.Phone.IsPhoneNumber(), "Invalid phone number.", m => m.Phone);
        
        // define one or more groups for preconditions
        If(m => m.ShipmentAddress.NotEmpty(), @then: m =>
        {
            ValidIf(m => postalService.AddressExistsAsync(m.ShipmentAddress, m.PostalCode), 
                    "Invalid postal address and/or postal code.", 
                    m => m.ShipmentAddress, m => m.PostalCode);
        });
    }
}

// .... we want a synchronous version to validate here!
var result = new UserValidator().Validate(new UserModel(...)); 

// possibility to inspect occured validation failures
bool success = result.IsValid;
var errors = result.Errors;
var warnings = result.Warnings;

2. Using FlatValidator in inline mode:

var model = new Model(Email: "email", BirthDate: DateTime.Now, Rate: -100);

// .... now use an asynchronous version!
var result = await FlatValidator.ValidateAsync(model, v => 
{
    // IsEmail() is one of funcs for typical data formats like Phone, Url, CreditCard, etc.
    v.ValidIf(m => m.Email.IsEmail(), "Invalid email", m => m.Email);

    v.ErrorIf(async m => await userService.IsUserExistAsync(m.Email),
              m => $"Email {m.Email} already registered", m => m.Email);
});

if (!result) 
{ 
    // ToDictionary() => Dictionary<PropertyName, ErrorMessage[]>
    var dict = result.ToDictionary(); 
}

Note - You don't need to install the FlatValidator.DependencyInjection package for inline mode usage.
