Solace.SchemaRegistry.Serdes.Core 1.1.0

Solace Schema Registry SERDES Core for .NET

Core abstractions and common infrastructure for Solace Schema Registry serialization/deserialization libraries. This package provides the foundational components that enable format-specific SERDES implementations.

Overview

This is a foundational library that provides core abstractions and infrastructure for schema-based serialization and deserialization in Solace messaging systems. It is designed to be extended by format-specific implementations rather than used directly in applications.

Features

• Abstract Serializer/Deserializer Base Classes: Common functionality and patterns for implementing format-specific serializers and deserializers
• Schema Resolution Framework: Flexible schema resolution system with pluggable strategies
• Registry Client Integration: HTTP client for Solace Schema Registry API communication
• Artifact Reference Resolution: Strategy pattern for resolving schema artifacts and references
• Configuration Management: Standardized configuration system for SERDES components
• Extensible Architecture: Designed for implementing custom serialization formats

Core Components

Abstract Base Classes

• AbstractSerializer<Schema, T>: Base class for implementing async serializers
• AbstractDeserializer<Schema, T>: Base class for implementing async deserializers

Schema Resolution

• ISchemaResolver<S, T>: Interface for resolving schemas by artifact reference or record data
• ISchemaParser<S, T>: Interface for parsing format-specific schemas
• IArtifactReferenceResolverStrategy<T, S>: Strategy pattern for artifact reference resolution

Data Contracts

• IRecord<T>: Represents serialized record data with metadata
• IMetadata: Contains schema metadata and resolution information
• IArtifactReference: Represents a reference to a schema artifact

Registry Client

The package includes an HTTP client for communicating with the Solace Schema Registry API, providing access to registry operations.

Installation

Install the package from NuGet:

dotnet add package Solace.SchemaRegistry.Serdes.Core

Or via Package Manager Console:

Install-Package Solace.SchemaRegistry.Serdes.Core

Usage

This package is intended for library authors creating format-specific serialization implementations. For application developers, use one of the format-specific packages:

• Solace.SchemaRegistry.Serdes.Avro - Apache Avro serialization
• Solace.SchemaRegistry.Serdes.JsonSchema - JSON Schema serialization

Key Interfaces

• ISchemaResolver<S, T>: Resolves schemas by artifact reference or record data
• ISchemaParser<S, T>: Parses format-specific schemas
• IArtifactReference: Represents a reference to a schema artifact
• IRecord<T>: Represents serialized record data
• IMetadata: Contains schema metadata and resolution information

Configuration

The package provides base configuration classes and properties for schema resolution:

• SchemaResolverProperties: Configuration for schema resolution components
• BaseProperties: Base configuration management functionality

Architecture

The Core package follows a layered architecture with clear separation of concerns:

1. Serialization Layer: Abstract base classes for serializers and deserializers
2. Schema Resolution Layer: Pluggable schema resolution and parsing
3. Registry Client Layer: HTTP client for registry communication
4. Strategy Layer: Pluggable strategies for artifact reference resolution

Dependencies

• Microsoft.Kiota.Bundle: For HTTP client functionality
• Solace.Serdes: Core Solace serialization abstractions

Requirements

• .NET Standard 2.0 or higher
• C# 7.3 or later
