🎯 What Problem It Solves

Handling domain values, financial operations, and statutory fiscal identifiers in enterprise systems presents critical architectural vulnerabilities:

1. Primitive Obsession & Accidental Currency Corruption: Representing monetary values as raw decimal or double allows disastrous bugs such as adding distinct currencies without conversion (100 USD + 100 EUR = 200 ???). Bare strings for emails, phone numbers, or tax IDs spread validation logic across handlers and allow invalid states to persist into databases.
2. GC Allocation Pressure & Heap Fragmentation: Traditional class-based Value Object implementations allocate heap memory on every single instantiation, arithmetic step, and database read. Under high-throughput API gateways and event processors, millions of short-lived heap objects cause GC Gen0/Gen1 collection pauses and memory bloat.
3. Multi-Country Fiscal Tax Law Fragmentation: Latin American jurisdictions (Dominican Republic, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Argentina) mandate strict statutory checksum algorithms (Modulo 11, Modulo 10, Luhn, prime-weighted factors, electronic invoice series like e-CF, CFDI 4.0, DTE, CUFE, CPE). Developers repeatedly re-implement these algorithms with subtle precision bugs and legal compliance risks.
4. Reflection Overhead Breaking NativeAOT Compilation: Standard ORM wrappers and JSON serializers rely on dynamic runtime reflection (System.Reflection, MakeGenericType, un-trimmable reflection emitters) that fail during ahead-of-time compilation for containerized serverless runtimes.

How EricksonLopez.ValueObjects Solves This

• Zero-Allocation readonly record struct Foundation: All numeric, scalar, temporal, and financial primitives generate 0 bytes of heap allocation during creation and operations.
• Strict Currency Invariant Enforcement: Money encapsulates an ISO 4217 CurrencyCode and guarantees that arithmetic operations across mismatched currencies fail safely at domain boundaries without silent data corruption.
• Martin Fowler's Lossless Allocation Algorithm: Money.Allocate(ratios) and Money.Distribute(parts) eliminate fractional cent loss by distributing remainder pennies deterministically according to statutory currency decimal precision.
• Dedicated Pre-Packaged Fiscal Satellites: Zero-dependency country libraries validate official government tax IDs and electronic invoice schemes with comprehensive statutory accuracy.
• Compile-Time Roslyn Architectural Enforcement: Analyzers ELVO001–ELVO003 prevent public constructors, missing factories, and mutable state at compile time.
• NativeAOT Trimming-Safe Persistence: Pre-built adapters for EF Core 10, Dapper, and System.Text.Json eliminate runtime reflection completely.

⚡ Key Features

• 🚀 Zero-Allocation Struct Layout: Scalar numeric, monetary, and temporal types are readonly record struct instances generating 0 B GC heap allocation.
• 💰 Enterprise Financial Arithmetic: ISO 4217 CurrencyCode, Money, ExchangeRate, Percentage, TaxRate, DiscountRate, banker's and commercial rounding, and Martin Fowler's proportional distribution.
• 🌎 6 Latin American Fiscal Satellites: Official validation for Dominican Republic (Rnc, Cedula, Ncf, ElectronicNcf), Chile (Rut, FiscalFolio, DteTypeCode), Colombia (Nit, Cufe, Cude, Cune), Mexico (Rfc, Curp, FiscalUuid, IdCcp, PedimentoNumber), Peru (Ruc, CpeIdentifier, UbigeoCode), and Argentina (Cuit, Cuil, Cbu, Cvu, Cae, VoucherType).
• 🛡️ Compile-Time Roslyn Analyzers: Automated diagnostics (ELVO001, ELVO002, ELVO003) enforcing DDD invariants, private constructors, and absolute immutability.
• ⚙️ Incremental Source Generators: Automatic synthesis of IParsable<TSelf> and ISpanParsable<TSelf> implementations via [ValueObject].
• 🧩 Decoupled Persistence Adapters: Dedicated satellite packages for Entity Framework Core 10 (ValueConverter), Dapper (SqlMapper.TypeHandler), and System.Text.Json (JsonConverter<T>).
• 🔒 Sensitive Data & PII Masking: Built-in [SensitiveData] decoration ensuring automatic masking of identifiers and credentials in ToString(), log streams, and debugger views.

Result<Money> shippingResult = Money.Create(15.00m, "USD");

if (priceResult.IsSuccess && shippingResult.IsSuccess)
{
    Money price = priceResult.Value;
    Money shipping = shippingResult.Value;

    // Direct struct arithmetic (0 heap allocations)

    Console.WriteLine($"Total: {total}");
}

// 2. Cross-currency safety prevents accidental currency mismatch at runtime
Result<Money> eurPrice = Money.Create(100.00m, CurrencyCode.EUR);
Result<Money> addResult = priceResult.Value.Add(eurPrice.Value);

Console.WriteLine(addResult.IsFailure); // true: Cannot add USD and EUR without conversion

2. Fowler's Proportional Money Allocation

using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects;

// Proportional allocation without losing remainder cents (e.g., $100.00 split 1:1:1)
Money totalRevenue = Money.Create(100.00m, CurrencyCode.USD).Value;

// Allocates: [$33.34, $33.33, $33.33] -> Sum is exactly $100.00
Money[] shares = totalRevenue.Allocate(1, 1, 1);

Console.WriteLine($"Partner 1: {shares[0]}"); // $33.34 USD (remainder penny assigned)
Console.WriteLine($"Partner 2: {shares[1]}"); // $33.33 USD
Console.WriteLine($"Partner 3: {shares[2]}"); // $33.33 USD

3. Validated Contact Data & Sensitive PII Masking

using EricksonLopez.Result;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects;

// Validated E.164 Phone Number & Email
Result<PhoneNumber> phone = PhoneNumber.Create("+18095551234");
Result<Email> email = Email.Create("erickson.lopez@enterprise.com");

if (email.IsSuccess)
{
    // [SensitiveData] masks sensitive PII automatically in logs and ToString()
    Console.WriteLine(email.Value.ToString()); // "e***z@enterprise.com"
    Console.WriteLine(email.Value.Value);      // "erickson.lopez@enterprise.com" (Raw value when authorized)
}

4. Statutory Fiscal Tax ID Validation

using EricksonLopez.Result;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.Fiscal.DominicanRepublic;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.Fiscal.Mexico;

// Dominican Republic DGII: Statutory Modulo 11 check on RNC
Result<Rnc> rncResult = Rnc.Create("101000001");
if (rncResult.IsSuccess)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Valid RNC: {rncResult.Value}");
}

// Mexico SAT: CFDI 4.0 RFC format and checksum validation
Result<Rfc> rfcResult = Rfc.Create("XAXX010101000");
if (rfcResult.IsSuccess)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Valid RFC: {rfcResult.Value}");
}

5. Continuous Intervals & Range Queries

using EricksonLopez.Result;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects;

// Create generic, inclusive interval [Start .. End]
Result<Range<DateOnly>> fiscalQuarter = Range<DateOnly>.Create(
    new DateOnly(2026, 1, 1),
    new DateOnly(2026, 3, 31));

if (fiscalQuarter.IsSuccess)
{
    var quarter = fiscalQuarter.Value;
    bool isContained = quarter.Contains(new DateOnly(2026, 2, 15)); // true
    Console.WriteLine($"Date within Q1: {isContained}");
}

💡 Core Use Cases

{
    public Result<InvoiceId> Handle(CreateInvoiceCommand command)
    {
        // 1. Validate domain value objects at API boundary
        var emailResult = Email.Create(command.CustomerEmail);
        var phoneResult = PhoneNumber.Create(command.CustomerPhone);
        var subtotalResult = Money.Create(command.SubtotalAmount, command.Currency);

        if (Result.Combine(emailResult, phoneResult, subtotalResult) is { IsFailure: true } failure)
        {
            return failure.ToResult<InvoiceId>();
        }

        // 2. Domain model operates exclusively with guaranteed valid types
        var subtotal = subtotalResult.Value;
        var taxRate = TaxRate.Create(0.18m).Value; // 18% VAT
        var taxAmount = taxRate.CalculateTax(subtotal);
        var total = subtotal + taxAmount;

        return Result.Success(InvoiceId.New());
    }
}

{
    public static InvoiceId New() => new(Guid.NewGuid());
}

Use Case 2: Multi-Party Revenue Sharing Without Cent Loss

using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects;

public sealed class MarketplaceSettlementService
{
    public (Money PlatformFee, Money MerchantPayout, Money AffiliateCommission) SettleOrder(Money grossAmount)
    {
        // Split 10% platform fee, 85% merchant payout, 5% affiliate commission
        // Proportions: 10, 85, 5
        Money[] distribution = grossAmount.Allocate(10, 85, 5);

        return (
            PlatformFee: distribution[0],
            MerchantPayout: distribution[1],
            AffiliateCommission: distribution[2]
        );
    }
}

Use Case 3: Country-Specific Electronic Invoice Verification

using EricksonLopez.Result;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.Fiscal.DominicanRepublic;

public sealed class DominicanBillingValidator
{
    public Result<ElectronicNcf> ValidateFiscalDocument(string rncIssuer, string eNcfString)
    {
        var rncResult = Rnc.Create(rncIssuer);
        if (rncResult.IsFailure) return rncResult.Error;

        var eNcfResult = ElectronicNcf.Create(eNcfString);
        if (eNcfResult.IsFailure) return eNcfResult.Error;

        ElectronicNcf eNcf = eNcfResult.Value;
        if (eNcf.TypeCode != ElectronicNcfTypeCode.FacturaCreditoFiscal)
        {
            return Error.Validation("NCF.InvalidType", "Must be commercial tax credit e-CF (E31).");
        }

        return eNcf;
    }
}

Use Case 4: Composite Address & Geographic Delivery Invariants

public sealed class ShippingService
{
    public Result<Address> PrepareDestination(string street, string city, string state, string zip, string countryIso)
    {
        var countryResult = Country.Create(countryIso);
        if (countryResult.IsFailure) return countryResult.Error;

        var postalResult = PostalCode.Create(zip);
        if (postalResult.IsFailure) return postalResult.Error;

        return Address.Create(street, null, city, state, postalResult.Value, countryResult.Value);
    }
}

using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.EntityFrameworkCore;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;

public sealed class OrderEntity
{
    public Guid Id { get; set; }
    public Email CustomerEmail { get; set; }
    public Money TotalPrice { get; set; }
    public BusinessDate OrderDate { get; set; }
}

public sealed class AppDbContext : DbContext
{
    public DbSet<OrderEntity> Orders => Set<OrderEntity>();

    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        // Centralized extension mapping all domain value objects automatically
        modelBuilder.ConfigureDomainValueObjects();
    }
}

Use Case 6: High-Throughput Micro-ORM Dapper Queries

        // One-time startup registration of all Dapper TypeHandlers
        DapperValueObjectRegistry.RegisterAll();
    }

    public async Task<OrderRecord?> GetOrderAsync(IDbConnection db, Guid orderId)
    {
        const string sql = "SELECT CustomerEmail, TotalAmount, Currency, OrderDate FROM Orders WHERE Id = @Id";
        return await db.QuerySingleOrDefaultAsync<OrderRecord>(sql, new { Id = orderId });
    }
}

public sealed record OrderRecord(Email CustomerEmail, Money TotalAmount, BusinessDate OrderDate);

🔌 Configuration & Integrations

Entity Framework Core 10 Model Configuration

EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.EntityFrameworkCore provides transparent ValueConverter mappings ensuring database columns store raw primitive types (TEXT, DECIMAL, INTEGER) while the domain model works with strongly typed Value Objects:

protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
    // Configure all value objects across all entity types in the model
    modelBuilder.ConfigureDomainValueObjects();

    // Or configure individual properties explicitly
    modelBuilder.Entity<Customer>()
        .Property(c => c.Email)
        .HasValueObjectConversion();
}

Dapper Micro-ORM Type Handler Registration

Register all type handlers in Program.cs during application startup:

using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.Dapper;

// Registers TypeHandlers for Email, PhoneNumber, BusinessDate, Range<T>, Country, etc.
DapperValueObjectRegistry.RegisterAll();

System.Text.Json NativeAOT Converters

Configure JSON serialization options for ASP.NET Core or console apps:

using System.Text.Json;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.Serialization.Json;

var options = new JsonSerializerOptions();
options.Converters.Add(new ValueObjectJsonConverterFactory());

// Serializes Money as {"amount": 100.50, "currency": "USD"}
// Serializes Email, PhoneNumber, RNC, RUT directly as JSON strings
string json = JsonSerializer.Serialize(myOrder, options);

Roslyn Diagnostic Analyzers

The EricksonLopez.ValueObjects.Analyzers package includes 3 compiler analyzers active during compilation:

🧪 Testing & Quality

Semantic Domain Assertions

using AwesomeAssertions;
using EricksonLopez.ValueObjects;
using Xunit;

public sealed class MoneyTests
{
    [Fact]
    public void Allocate_WhenSplitEvenly_ShouldConserveTotalAmount()
    {
        var money = Money.Create(100.00m, CurrencyCode.USD).Value;

        var parts = money.Allocate(1, 1, 1);

        parts.Should().HaveCount(3);
        (parts[0] + parts[1] + parts[2]).Should().Be(money);
    }
}

Zero-Allocation Validation & Invariant Testing

[Fact]
public void Money_Addition_ZeroHeapAllocation()
{
    var m1 = Money.Create(50.00m, CurrencyCode.USD).Value;
    var m2 = Money.Create(25.00m, CurrencyCode.USD).Value;

    long before = GC.GetAllocatedBytesForCurrentThread();
    Money total = m1 + m2;
    long after = GC.GetAllocatedBytesForCurrentThread();

    (after - before).Should().Be(0); // 0 bytes allocated
}

Core Invariants

1. Immutability by Construction: Value Objects are deeply immutable. Once created, their internal state can never be modified.
2. Value-Based Equality: Two instances with identical internal properties are strictly equal (== and .Equals() return true).
3. Self-Validation: No Value Object can exist in an invalid state. Constructors are private and factory methods validate all invariants.
