Stratara.Validation

License: MIT.

Vendor-neutral request validation for Stratara's CQRS pipeline. A mediator pipeline behavior runs your IValidator<T> implementations before the handler and throws an aggregated StrataraValidationException when validation fails — no third-party validation dependency in the default path.

Quick start

// 1. Register the behavior (outermost) + discover validators.
builder.Services
    .AddStrataraValidation()
    .AddValidatorsFromAssemblyContaining<IAppMarker>();

// 2. Write a validator (the contracts live in Stratara.Abstractions.Validation).
public sealed class CreateOrderValidator : IValidator<CreateOrder>
{
    public ValueTask<ValidationResult> ValidateAsync(CreateOrder cmd, CancellationToken ct = default)
        => ValueTask.FromResult(string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(cmd.CustomerId)
            ? new ValidationResult([new ValidationFailure(nameof(cmd.CustomerId), "Customer is required.")])
            : ValidationResult.Success);
}

// 3. Catch the failure in your global handler and map it to your error model.
catch (StrataraValidationException ex)
{
    // ex.Failures -> RFC-7807 ProblemDetails 400, your error codes, etc.
}

How it works

  • AddStrataraValidation() registers IPipelineBehavior for both request shapes (IRequest and IRequest<TResult>). Register it before other behaviors so validation runs outermost — before authorization, auditing, and the handler.
  • All validators for a request run; their failures are aggregated.
  • Severity policy: only ValidationSeverity.Error blocks (throws StrataraValidationException). Warning and Info failures pass through and are logged.

Contracts

The validation contracts (IValidator<T>, ValidationResult, ValidationFailure, ValidationSeverity, StrataraValidationException) live in Stratara.Abstractions (namespace Stratara.Abstractions.Validation) so consumers can implement validators and catch the exception without referencing this behavior package.

The contract shape is FluentValidation-compatible; an optional Stratara.Validation.FluentValidation adapter can be shipped to plug FluentValidation validators into the same pipeline.

API keys can now be bootstrapped. Issuance always generated the key itself, which does not fit the
setups where server and caller have to share a key *before* either starts — container orchestration,
CI provisioning, self-hosted bundles, end-to-end test hosts. This release adds an import path for a
key the caller already holds, plus the canonical key format as public API so callers generate values
instead of inventing them.

### Added

- **`IApiKeyStore.ImportAsync` — store a machine key whose raw value the caller already holds.**
 Issuance generates the key itself, which is the wrong shape when server and caller must share it
 *before* either boots: container orchestration, CI provisioning, self-hosted bundles, end-to-end
 test hosts. Without this path, consumers bypassed the store and reimplemented its internals (the
 digest format and the machine-key membership row) — a copy that keeps compiling after the store
 changes and fails as a runtime 401. Import is idempotent, so it can run unconditionally on every
 boot: a value that is already stored returns the existing descriptor and the stored key is never
 mutated, so a changed configuration cannot escalate a key's roles or extend its expiry unnoticed.
 Revoked, expired, and foreign-tenant values are rejected rather than silently adopted, and
 concurrent replicas racing the same first import converge on one key. Machine keys only —
 `ApiKeyImportRequest` carries no `UserId`.
- **`ApiKeyFormat` (`Stratara.Abstractions.ApiKeys`) — the canonical raw-key format as public API.**
 `CreateRawKey()` generates `stk_` plus the Base64Url encoding of 32 CSPRNG bytes; `IsWellFormed()`
 checks that shape. `ImportAsync` accepts only well-formed values: the store keeps its stored
 digest unsalted because a generated key carries 256 bits of entropy, and a hand-picked value would
 quietly invalidate that. Generate keys out of band with `CreateRawKey()` and keep them in a secret
 store — the type lives in the abstractions package so host-builder and orchestration projects can
 reach it without referencing the storage implementation.
- **`InMemoryApiKeyStore` (`Stratara.Testing`) — the drop-in double for the API-key store**,
 mirroring issuance, import, fail-closed validation, revocation, and the erasure sweeps, and
 materializing machine keys into a membership store you can share and inspect.

### Changed

- **API-key lifecycle events are now logged** (`Stratara.Diagnostics` event-ID range 116_000):
 import, idempotent repeat, and a repeat that supplied different parameters. Key ids and tenant
 ids only — never the raw key or its digest.
- **For implementers of `IApiKeyStore`:** the interface gained `ImportAsync`. Custom implementations
 need the new member; callers are unaffected.
