Eliassen.Documents.Abstractions

Overview

The Eliassen.Documents.Abstractions namespace provides interfaces and attributes for interacting with document-related functionalities such as blob containers, document conversion, content type detection, and document type management.

Key Interfaces and Attributes

• BlobContainerAttribute: Configuration attribute for Blob Containers, specifying the container name.
• IBlobContainerFactory: Factory interface for building blob containers by name or type reference.
• IBlobContainerProvider: Interface for implementing a blob container for a particular provider type.
• IBlobContainerProviderFactory: Factory interface for creating a blob container by name for a specific provider type.
• IDocumentConversionHandler: Interface for a handler responsible for document conversion, specifying supported source and destination content types.
• IBlobContainer: Interface for interacting with blob containers, providing methods for content retrieval, storage, and deletion.
• IDocumentConversion: Interface for a service responsible for document conversion, with a method for converting documents from one format to another.
• IDocumentTypeTools: Interface providing tools for working with document types, including content type detection and retrieval of document types by file extension or header.
• IContentTypeDetector: Interface for detecting content type from a stream.
• IDocumentType: Interface representing a document type, providing information such as supported content types, file extensions, and file headers.

Key Models

• ContentMetaDataReference: Represents a reference to content metadata, including content type, file name, and metadata.
• ContentReference: Represents a reference to content, containing information such as content type, file name, and content itself.
• DocumentType: Represents a document type, including its name, supported content types, file extensions, and file header.
• IDocumentType: Interface representing a document type, providing information such as name, supported content types, file extensions, and file headers.

Getting Started

Interfaces in the Eliassen.Documents.Abstractions namespace provide contracts for implementing various document-related functionalities. Implement these interfaces in your application to integrate document management features such as blob storage, document conversion, and content type detection.

Example Usage

// Example of implementing IBlobContainerProvider interface
public class MyBlobContainerProvider : IBlobContainerProvider
{
    public string ContainerName { get; }

    public MyBlobContainerProvider(string containerName)
    {
        ContainerName = containerName;
    }

    public IBlobContainer CreateBlobContainer()
    {
        // Implementation to create a blob container
    }
}

// Example of using IDocumentConversion interface
public class MyDocumentConversionService : IDocumentConversion
{
    public async Task ConvertAsync(Stream source, string sourceContentType, Stream destination, string destinationContentType)
    {
        // Implementation of document conversion logic
    }
}
