CanonicaLib Logo

CanonicaLib is an open-source library that enables teams to create and maintain canonical shared libraries across multiple projects. It transforms C# source code into standards-compliant packages for different platforms.

🎯 Purpose

CanonicaLib bridges gaps between development teams and prevents silos by enabling shared concepts and ideas through canonical models. Define contracts once in C#, generate packages for multiple platforms:

  • Standards-compliant .NET NuGet packages
  • OpenAPI specifications
  • TypeScript NPM packages (planned)

This approach ensures consistent data models, API contracts, and shared capabilities across teams, promoting collaboration and reducing duplication.

✨ Features

  • Canonical Model Definitions: Define data models once using C# classes with attributes
  • OpenAPI Generation: Automatically generate OpenAPI specs from attributed interfaces
  • Schema Generation: Convert C# types to JSON schemas using reflection
  • XML Documentation: Extract descriptions from XML docs automatically
  • Cross-Platform Packages: Generate packages for multiple platforms from single source

🏗️ Architecture

Core Packages

  • CanonicaLib.DataAnnotations (.NET Standard 2.1): Core attributes for marking canonical contracts
  • CanonicaLib.UI (.NET 8): OpenAPI generation and discovery services
