IronAlpine.Validation.Fluent
Why
FluentValidation integration for IronAlpine mediator pipeline with deterministic behavior and centralized validator scanning.
Installation
dotnet add package IronAlpine.Validation.Fluent
Program.cs
builder.Services.AddIronAlpineFluentValidation(typeof(AssemblyReference).Assembly);
What It Registers
- FluentValidation validators from provided assemblies.
ValidationBehavior<TRequest,TResponse>.- Request validator wrapper abstractions used by mediator behavior.
Guidance
Register validators once. Do not duplicate registration in both application module and API startup.
Troubleshooting
- Validation not triggered: ensure behavior is in mediator pipeline order.
Configuration Deep Dive
When a package exposes options classes, use builder.Configuration binding and keep values explicit per environment.
Common guidance:
- Prefer explicit values in production.
- Keep retries/timeouts conservative; tune with telemetry.
- Enable startup validation in non-development environments.
- Fail fast when required dependencies are missing.
Integration Patterns
Pattern A: API service with EF + Messaging
- Register EF provider package.
- Register messaging inbox/outbox package.
- Register mediator and behavior order.
- Enable health readiness checks for DB and broker.
Pattern B: Read-heavy service with Dapper + Messaging
- Register Dapper data package.
- Register messaging package with consumer enabled.
- Add observability and structured logging.
Pattern C: Security-focused service
- Register security ASP.NET package.
- Add policy catalog or resolver.
- Register authorization EFCore projection package only where needed.
Options Checklist
Use this checklist when configuring any IronAlpine package:
- Required connection strings present.
- Feature flags intentional (
Enable*values reviewed). - Retry and timeout values match SLO expectations.
- Startup validation behavior understood.
- Environment-specific defaults are overridden in production.
Troubleshooting Matrix
- Startup failure with validation error : A required dependency package or config value is missing. Check package registrations and bound options sections.
- Background workers not starting
: Verify execution mode,
Enable*flags, and hosted services registration. - Policy/authorization mismatch : Check claim types, policy naming strategy, and catalog entries.
- Cache stale or no-hit behavior : Validate key generation, invalidation path, and distributed lock configuration.
- Messaging duplicate handling issues
: Verify
event-idpropagation and idempotency key construction.
Best-Practice Notes
- Keep handler logic deterministic and side-effect boundaries explicit.
- Keep
IQueryableusage inside application handlers/services. - Keep transaction save boundaries in handlers where business intent is clear.
- Prefer explicit topic policy metadata for critical events.
