Hangfire.StructureMap 2.0.2

Hangfire.StructureMap

This package provides StructureMap support for Hangfire, allowing nested StructureMap containers to resolve job type instances and their dependencies, and to manage the lifetime of resolved instances.

Getting started

Install the Hangfire.StructureMap package from NuGet:

Install-Package Hangfire.StructureMap

To configure Hangfire to use StructureMap, configure your container and call the IGlobalConfiguration extension method, UseStructureMapActivator:

var container = new Container();
// container.Configure...

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseStructureMapActivator(container);

After configuration, when jobs are started a StructureMap-based implementation of the JobActivator class is used to resolve job type instances and all of their dependencies.

Object Lifecycles

Hangfire.StructureMap doesn't rely on a specific object lifecycle - you can configure your dependencies as Singleton, ContainerScoped, Transient, AlwaysUnique or ThreadLocal as normal.

Hangfire.StructureMap creates a nested container for each job execution, so using ContainerScoped will scope dependency lifetimes to that of the job.

container.For<IRepository>().ContainerScoped().Use<GenericRepository>();

The nested container is disposed when jobs ends, and all dependencies that implement the IDisposable interface are also automatically disposed (Singleton scoped instances are of course an exception).
