DSoftStudio.Mediator.FluentValidation

NuGet License

FluentValidation integration for DSoftStudio.Mediator. Provides automatic request validation via a pipeline behavior that resolves IValidator<T> instances from DI and short-circuits on failure.

Features

  • Automatic validation — All requests with registered validators are validated before reaching the handler
  • Multiple validators — Supports multiple validators per request type, all errors are aggregated
  • Structured errorsMediatorValidationException with typed error details for easy API response mapping
  • Zero configuration — Register once, validates everywhere

Installation

dotnet add package DSoftStudio.Mediator.FluentValidation

Quick Start

Define a validator:

public class CreateUserValidator : AbstractValidator<CreateUser>
{
    public CreateUserValidator()
    {
        RuleFor(x => x.Name).NotEmpty();
        RuleFor(x => x.Email).EmailAddress();
    }
}

Register the validation pipeline behavior and your validators at startup:

services
    .AddMediator()
    .RegisterMediatorHandlers()
    .AddMediatorFluentValidation()
    .PrecompilePipelines();

// Register validators — choose one of the approaches below

Registering Validators

Option 1 — Manual registration (AOT-compatible)

services.AddScoped<IValidator<CreateUser>, CreateUserValidator>();

Option 2 — Assembly scanning (requires FluentValidation.DependencyInjectionExtensions)

dotnet add package FluentValidation.DependencyInjectionExtensions
services.AddValidatorsFromAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly);

Note: FluentValidation.DependencyInjectionExtensions uses reflection-based assembly scanning, which is not compatible with NativeAOT / trimming.

Validation runs automatically — if validation fails, a MediatorValidationException is thrown before the handler executes.

Error Handling

try
{
    await mediator.Send(new CreateUser("", "invalid"));
}
catch (MediatorValidationException ex)
{
    // ex.Errors contains structured validation errors
    foreach (var error in ex.Errors)
        Console.WriteLine($"{error.PropertyName}: {error.ErrorMessage}");
}
