Purview.Containers.Nats

Throwaway NATS brokers for .NET integration testing on WSL Containers (WSLC) or Docker.

dotnet add package Purview.Containers.Nats

Backend-neutral: depends on Purview.Containers.Core and needs a backend package (Purview.Containers.Wsl or Purview.Containers.Docker). NATS.Client.Core is not referenced by this package — bring your own client.

Requirements

WSL Containers backend: Windows 10/11 with WSL Containers (wsl --install --no-distribution), and a .NET 10 or later project. A platform-neutral net10.0 project binds the portable facade and gets automatic WSLC-or-Docker selection; a Windows target framework (net10.0-windows10.0.19041.0, x64 or arm64) binds the implementation directly. The Purview.Containers.Wsl package supplies buildTransitive defaults for WindowsSdkPackageVersion/PlatformTarget and (for a platform-neutral consumer on a Windows build host) the implementation payload, rejecting an unsupported consumer with PCC0001/PCC0002 — see the consumer requirements.
Docker backend: any reachable Docker daemon (docker info), with a net10.0 or later project on any platform. No Windows target framework and no PCC guards apply.
Experimental: the API, defaults and packaging can change between prereleases; there is no production support guarantee.

Quick start

using Purview.Containers.Nats;
using NATS.Client.Core;

await using var nats = new NatsBuilder().Build();

await nats.StartAsync();   // waits for 'Listening for client connections'

await using var client = new NatsConnection(new NatsOpts { Url = nats.GetConnectionString() });
await client.PublishAsync("orders.created", "42");

API

Member	Purpose
`NatsBuilder()` / `NatsBuilder(string image)`	Default image `nats:2`, or a custom image.
`NatsBuilder.ClientPort` (4222), `MonitoringPort` (8222)	Container ports, both mapped to random host ports.
`NatsContainer.GetClientEndpoint()`	`nats://127.0.0.1:{mappedPort}` as a `Uri`.
`NatsContainer.GetConnectionString()`	The client endpoint as a string.
`NatsContainer.GetMonitoringEndpoint()`	Monitoring HTTP endpoint (`http://127.0.0.1:{mappedPort}`), e.g. `/varz`.

The default wait strategy matches the Listening for client connections log line unless you supply your own with WithWaitStrategy(...). Endpoint accessors resolve the mapped host ports, so call them after StartAsync().
