Excalibur.Dispatch.Abstractions

Core interfaces and types for the Excalibur framework.

Installation

dotnet add package Excalibur.Dispatch.Abstractions

Purpose

This package contains the foundational abstractions for Dispatch messaging. Use it when defining message contracts, handlers, or middleware without taking a dependency on the full Dispatch implementation. Ideal for shared libraries and domain projects.

Key Types

  • IDispatchMessage - Base interface for all messages
  • IDispatchAction / IDispatchAction<TResponse> - Command-style messages (with optional response)
  • IDispatchDocument - Query-style messages for read operations
  • IDispatchEvent - Event notification messages
  • IDomainEvent - Domain events for aggregate state changes
  • IIntegrationEvent - Cross-boundary integration events
  • IDispatchHandler<T> - Message handler interface
  • IDispatcher - Message dispatch interface
  • IMessageMiddleware - Middleware pipeline interface
  • IMessageContext - Per-message context and metadata

Quick Start

// Define a command (action)
public record CreateOrder(string CustomerId, decimal Amount) : IDispatchAction;

// Define a query (document) with response
public record GetOrder(string OrderId) : IDispatchDocument;

// Define a handler
public class CreateOrderHandler : IDispatchHandler<CreateOrder>
{
    public Task<IDispatchResult> HandleAsync(
        CreateOrder message,
        IMessageContext context,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        // Handle command
        return Task.FromResult<IDispatchResult>(MessageResult.Success());
    }
}
