LoomKit.Jobs.Abstractions

The interfaces, abstract base types, and models behind LoomKit.Jobs, split into their own lightweight package with no dependency on the concrete scheduler implementation.

Status: early stage. The public API may still change between versions — pin a commit/tag if you depend on it.

Why a separate package

LoomKit.Jobs ships the whole scheduler: the in-process queue, the consumer pipeline, cron rescheduling and retry middlewares, DI registration helpers, telemetry, etc. A project that only needs to define jobs and handlers — typically a domain/DDD class library that shouldn't know how those jobs get queued or consumed — doesn't need any of that.

This package holds only:

  • The marker/contract interfaces: IJob, IJob<TJobStatus>, IJobHandler<TJob, TJobStatus>, IJobQueue, IJobConsumer, IJobScheduler, IJobSchedulerSeeder.
  • The models every consumer touches: JobSchedule, CronJobSchedule, JobStatus/JobStatus<TResponse>.
  • The event args types raised by a scheduler: JobScheduledEventArgs, JobStartedEventArgs, JobEndedEventArgs, JobExceptionEventArgs.
  • The abstract base types meant to be extended: JobMiddleware<TJob, TJobStatus>, JobScheduler<TOptions>, JobSchedulerOptions, JobSchedulerOptionsBuilder<TOptions>, plus the concrete-but-implementation-free JobQueueOptions(Builder) and JobConsumerOptions(Builder).

Reference this package from a layer that should only depend on shapes (a domain project defining jobs/handlers and their status types, a library authoring a custom IJobScheduler/IJobQueue/JobMiddleware, a contracts-only shared project). Reference LoomKit.Jobs — which itself depends on this package — from your application/composition-root layer, where the concrete scheduler, its DI wiring, cron scheduling, and the built-in retry/reschedule middlewares actually get used.

Installation

dotnet add package LoomKit.Jobs.Abstractions

Available on nuget.org — a package version is published automatically for every vX.Y.Z tag pushed to this repo.

If you're building the full scheduler (queuing and consuming jobs, not just defining them), install LoomKit.Jobs instead — it brings this package in transitively.

Contents

Type Kind Purpose
IJob / IJob<TJobStatus> interface Marker for a job; the generic form pins its status type.
IJobHandler<TJob, TJobStatus> interface Implement one per job type — where the actual logic lives.
IJobQueue interface A named queue a job schedule is enqueued onto and awaited from.
IJobConsumer interface Pulls job schedules off a queue and runs them through the handler/middleware pipeline.
IJobScheduler interface The entry point application code calls: enqueue, list, and remove job schedules across all queues/consumers.
IJobSchedulerSeeder interface Implement to seed jobs at scheduler startup.
JobSchedule / CronJobSchedule model A scheduled occurrence of a job (one-shot/delayed, or recurring on a cron expression).
JobStatus / JobStatus<TResponse> model Mutable progress/result slot a handler writes to while it runs.
JobScheduledEventArgs / JobStartedEventArgs / JobEndedEventArgs / JobExceptionEventArgs model Event args raised by an IJobScheduler at each lifecycle point.
JobMiddleware<TJob, TJobStatus> abstract class Base type for cross-cutting pipeline behavior around a handler.
JobScheduler<TOptions> abstract class Base type for a custom IJobScheduler implementation.
JobSchedulerOptions / JobSchedulerOptionsBuilder<TOptions> abstract class Base type for a scheduler's configured options (queues, consumers, seeders) and its fluent builder.
JobQueueOptions / JobQueueOptionsBuilder class Configured options for a single queue (retry budget, poll interval) and its builder.
JobConsumerOptions / JobConsumerOptionsBuilder class Configured options for a single consumer (middleware pipeline, DI scope) and its builder, with the open-generic middleware-type validation built in.

None of these types do anything by themselves — see LoomKit.Jobs for the default, ready-to-use implementation (DefaultJobScheduler, InProcessJobQueue, JobConsumer, AddDefaultJobScheduler, cron scheduling, retry/reschedule middlewares, tracing, ...) and for usage examples.
