LoomKit.Requests.Abstractions

The interfaces and abstract base types behind LoomKit.Requests, split into their own lightweight package with no dependency on the concrete mediator 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.Requests ships the whole mediator: the default sender, its DI registration helpers, reflection-based pipeline caching, telemetry, etc. A project that only needs to define requests and handlers — typically a domain/DDD class library that shouldn't know how those requests get dispatched — doesn't need any of that.

This package holds only:

  • The marker/contract interfaces: IRequest, IRequest<TResponse>, IRequestHandler<TRequest>, IRequestHandler<TRequest, TResponse>, IRequestSender.
  • The abstract base types meant to be extended: RequestMiddleware<TRequest> / RequestMiddleware<TRequest, TResponse>, RequestSender<TOptions>, RequestSenderOptions, RequestSenderOptionsBuilder<TOptions>.

Reference this package from a layer that should only depend on shapes (a domain project defining commands/queries and handler interfaces, a library authoring a custom IRequestSender/RequestMiddleware, a contracts-only shared project). Reference LoomKit.Requests — which itself depends on this package — from your application/composition-root layer, where the concrete sender, its DI wiring, and the assembly-scanning handler registration actually get used.

Installation

dotnet add package LoomKit.Requests.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 mediator (sending requests, not just defining them), install LoomKit.Requests instead — it brings this package in transitively.

Contents

Type Kind Purpose
IRequest interface Marker for a fire-and-forget request (no response).
IRequest<TResponse> interface Marker for a request that returns a TResponse.
IRequestHandler<TRequest> / IRequestHandler<TRequest, TResponse> interface Implement one per request type — where the actual logic lives.
IRequestSender interface The entry point application code calls: SendAsync(...).
RequestMiddleware<TRequest> / RequestMiddleware<TRequest, TResponse> abstract class Base type for cross-cutting pipeline behavior around a handler.
RequestSender<TOptions> abstract class Base type for a custom IRequestSender implementation.
RequestSenderOptions abstract class Base type for a sender's configured options (service lifetime, middleware pipeline).
RequestSenderOptionsBuilder<TOptions> abstract class Base type for a fluent builder that produces a TOptions, with the open-generic middleware-type validation built in.

None of these types do anything by themselves — see LoomKit.Requests for the default, ready-to-use implementation (DefaultRequestSender, AddDefaultRequestSender, assembly-scanning handler registration, tracing, ...) and for usage examples.
