XRegistry.Models 0.1.0-alpha

xRegistry .NET

Current source and CI package version: 0.1.0-alpha.

A model-driven xRegistry client and ASP.NET Core server for .NET 8 and .NET 10. Eleven runtime packages provide Core, client, server, storage, validation, federation, and File/Git/OCI binding surfaces. Three .NET 10 samples demonstrate the supported host and client profiles.

Start with the developer getting-started guide to consume the NuGet packages, call a Registry, embed an ASP.NET Core endpoint, or define an application-specific model.

🧪 Samples

For an isolated local demonstration, use an empty, caller-owned local data directory:

dotnet run --project samples\XRegistry.FileServer --no-launch-profile -- --DataRoot D:\RegistryData --Initialize true --DemoLoopback true --PublicRoot http://127.0.0.1:5280/registry --ListenPort 5280

The demo explicitly grants local callers administration. Never forward or expose its port. Production requires configured HTTPS and credentials; see sample security. Restart without --Initialize true.

🛠️ Build

Install the SDK pinned by global.json and Python 3.13. Install the independent Python oracle dependencies from their hash-locked manifest, then use normal NuGet restore/build:

python -m pip install --require-hashes --only-binary=:all: -r eng\requirements-oracles.lock
dotnet restore XRegistry.slnx
dotnet build XRegistry.slnx -c Release --no-restore
python eng\check_packages.py --evaluate
pwsh -NoProfile -File eng\test.ps1

NuGet versions are centrally managed by Directory.Packages.props; audit and package-source mapping remain enabled. NuGet restore is lockfile-free. The Python oracle environment is separate and remains pinned by hashes in eng\requirements-oracles.lock.

TUnit tests use Microsoft.Testing.Platform rather than VSTest filters. Native publishing needs the matching platform toolchain. The test script limits concurrent test modules to two on shared runners; set -MaxParallelTestModules explicitly on larger machines.

eng\build.ps1 performs the repository restore, Release build and package contract evaluation. eng\pack.ps1 creates development packages locally. Its -Release mode fails until package, specification and source-state qualification is complete. Neither command publishes anything.

For exact-version CI packages after a successful build, run python eng\package_build.py or pass an explicit --version. Commit version changes first: NBGV reads the committed version, and an explicit package version must agree with version.json. The package-build workflow uploads all eleven 0.1.0-alpha package/symbol pairs and their source/hash inventory; those artifacts are not automatically promoted. Publication is a separate, approval-gated operation described in the release guide.
