Soenneker.Validators.Validator

Marker and logging base types used by Soenneker validator packages.

Install

dotnet add package Soenneker.Validators.Validator

Types

IValidator is an empty marker interface. It does not define a common Validate method because individual validators have different inputs, outputs, and async requirements.
Validator is an abstract base class that implements the marker and stores an ILogger<Validator> for derived classes.

This package does not register services with dependency injection and is not useful as a standalone validation engine.

Build a validator

Define the operation on a domain-specific interface:

using Soenneker.Validators.Validator.Abstract;

public interface IOrderNumberValidator : IValidator
{
    bool Validate(string? value);
}

Then derive from the logging base when shared logger access is useful:

using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;

public sealed class OrderNumberValidator :
    Soenneker.Validators.Validator.Validator,
    IOrderNumberValidator
{
    public OrderNumberValidator(ILogger<OrderNumberValidator> logger)
        : base(logger)
    {
    }

    public bool Validate(string? value)
    {
        bool valid = !string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(value);

        if (!valid)
            Logger.LogDebug("Order number was missing");

        return valid;
    }
}

ILogger<TCategoryName> is covariant, so a derived validator's typed logger can be passed to the base constructor. The exposed Logger property is typed as ILogger<Validator> and has a public setter; avoid replacing it after construction unless the validator explicitly requires mutable logging behavior.

Registration lifetime and disposal belong to each concrete validator package because this base class owns no resources beyond the logger reference.
