Re.MediatR 12.0.0

Re.MediatR

Exposes MediatR trough a Web-API endpoint for SPA applications (Angular, React, Vue, ...)

You can now use MediatR without having to write your own API Controllers

Works with net6.0 only at the moment

Just register the middleware and you can start calling MediatR from inside your favorite SPA framework

Installing Re.MediatR

You should install Re.MediatR with NuGet:

Install-Package Re.MediatR

Or via the .NET Core command line interface:

dotnet add package Re.MediatR

Usage

Just add ReMediatR as a new endpoint during runtime configuration:

app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
    endpoints.MapReMediatR<PingRequest>("/mediatr");
});

Where PingRequest is a generic type for which ReMediatR will scan the assembly of that type

Given this MediatR request-handler:

using System;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace MyApp.RequestHandlers;

public class PingRequest : IRequest<PingResponse>
{
    public string Hello { get; set; }
}

public class PingResponse
{
    public PingResponse()
    {
        Time = DateTime.Now;
    }

    public DateTime Time { get; }
}

public class PingRequestHandler : IRequestHandler<PingRequest, PingResponse>
{
    public override Task<PingResponse> Handle(PingRequest request, CancellationToken token)
    {
        return Task.FromResult(new PingResponse());
    }
}

The handler is now available trough a HTTP-post request, if your dotnet app is running on localhost:5001 write

POST http://localhost:5001/mediatr?type=MyApp.RequestHandlers.PingRequest
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "hello": "world"
}

Response

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: xy

{
  "time": "2022-02-13T15:31:55.559Z"
}
