LuciferCore

NuGet Downloads

LuciferCore is the pure performance microkernel of the LuciferCore ecosystem — a zero-allocation, event-driven foundation for .NET.


What's inside

  • Buffer-Model architecture Network payloads flow through contiguous, pooled buffers — cache-friendly, low-GC.

  • Lightweight static DI (DIExtensions) Compiled-expression based resolution, minimal runtime reflection overhead.

  • ObjectPool API Unified pooling for objects and ArrayPool<byte>-backed buffers (PooledObject.cs).

  • Event-driven network transports TCP / UDP / SSL / UDS, plus ready HTTP, HTTPS, WS, WSS clients, servers, and sessions — pure event-driven I/O, allocation-conscious.


Design Philosophy

LuciferCore follows Data-Oriented Design (DOD) for the hot path (buffers, transports, pooling) while keeping the public surface (Session, Request, Response) approachable with light OOP.

If you need declarative routing ([Handler], [HttpGet], [Message]), middleware pipelines, managers, or a CLI runtime, add LuciferCore.Platforms on top:

dotnet add package LuciferCore
dotnet add package LuciferCore.Platforms

Installation

dotnet add package LuciferCore

License

LuciferCore uses dual licensing:

  • AGPL-3.0 (open-source / evaluation)
  • Commercial License (for closed-source or enterprise use)

refactor(core): strip application runtime facade and migrate to ObjectPool API

     BREAKING CHANGE: Completely decoupled runtime facade (Lucifer), bootstrap/config helpers, attribute-driven routing, and platform utilities into LuciferCore.Platforms; Core now exclusively serves as a high-performance zero-allocation microkernel.

     - Migrated `Lucifer` facade, platform helpers (bootstrap, config, CMD, plugins), and app attributes to LuciferCore.Platforms.
     - Replaced direct `Lucifer.Rent/Return` and ambiguous `Pool<T>` usage with the streamlined `ObjectPool` API (`PooledObject.cs`).
     - Extracted dynamic model registration and resolution logic into `DIExtensions`.
     - Removed legacy `UltityAttribute` bundles and duplicate utility/extension files.
     - Refined assembly surface: Core now only retains raw Memory/Buffer, Network Transports (TCP/UDP/SSL/UDS), ObjectPool, Storage, Utf8 primitives, and Buffer-Model bindings.
