Shirubasoft.Aspire.Extensions.ResourceGroups

Group related Aspire resources under logical parents without replacing their standard registration methods.

Install

Add the package to an Aspire AppHost:

dotnet add package Shirubasoft.Aspire.Extensions.ResourceGroups

The package targets .NET 10 and Aspire 13.5.3 or later within the Aspire 13.5 line.

Group resources

AddResourceGroup returns an IResourceGroupBuilder, which implements IDistributedApplicationBuilder. Call the usual Aspire registration methods on it:

using Aspire.Hosting;

var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

var backend = builder.AddResourceGroup("backend");
var api = backend.AddContainer("api", "alpine");
var worker = backend.AddContainer("worker", "alpine");

await builder.Build().RunAsync();

The dashboard shows api and worker under backend. The group is a logical resource, so Aspire omits it from published manifests and does not start a process or container for it.

A resource's own parent takes precedence over the group. This preserves child relationships created by Aspire integrations and explicit WithParentRelationship calls:

var data = builder.AddResourceGroup("data");
var database = data.AddContainer("database", "postgres", "18-alpine");

data.AddContainer("migrations", "alpine")
    .WithParentRelationship(database);

Here, database belongs to data, while migrations belongs to database.

Groups can also contain groups:

var platform = builder.AddResourceGroup("platform");
var observability = platform.AddResourceGroup("observability");

observability.AddContainer("collector", "otel/opentelemetry-collector-contrib");

Run the sample

From this extension folder, run:

aspire run --project samples/ResourceGroups.AppHost/ResourceGroups.AppHost.csproj

The dashboard shows a backend group with an API, database, and a migrations child under the database.
