Josupeit.Practices.Services.Abstractions

Background services tend to share the same lifecycle: they start, optionally pause and resume, and eventually stop. This package captures that lifecycle as a pair of interfaces — one synchronous, one asynchronous — so that the rest of your application can control a service without knowing anything about its concrete implementation.

dotnet add package Josupeit.Practices.Services.Abstractions

The lifecycle

A service always begins in the Stopped state and transitions through the following states:

Stopped → Starting → Running → Stopping → Stopped
                             ↘ Pausing → Paused → Resuming → Running

The ServiceState enum exposes every one of these states, which makes it straightforward to reflect the current status in a UI or to write guards in the service implementation itself.

IService — synchronous lifecycle

public interface IService
{
    ServiceState State { get; }

    void Start();
    void Stop();

    // Pause and Resume throw NotSupportedException when the implementation does not support pausing.
    void Pause();
    void Resume();
}

IAsyncService — asynchronous lifecycle

IAsyncService mirrors IService exactly, but every operation returns a Task. Each method is available in two overloads — one without a CancellationToken and one with — so callers can choose the level of control they need.

Task StartAsync();
Task StartAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken);
Task StopAsync();
Task StopAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken);
Task PauseAsync();
Task PauseAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken);
Task ResumeAsync();
Task ResumeAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken);

When to use this package directly

Reference Josupeit.Practices.Services.Abstractions in any layer that needs to start, stop, or observe a service but should not depend on how it is implemented. For the concrete base classes that manage state transitions for you, install Josupeit.Practices.Services instead.
