AspectLib

A no-config C# library of aspects using MrAdvice to replace repetitive code with simple attributes.
Built as a free alternative to existing AOP frameworks where tooling is often expensive or awkward to integrate into modern solutions.

This library simplifies cross-cutting concerns like caching without needing to wire up or manage infrastructure code manually. Designed to drop cleanly into .NET applications with minimal setup.

📦 Installation

Install the package via NuGet:

dotnet add package AspectLib --version 1.0.0-pre-release

Note:
This package includes MrAdvice as a dependency and automatically enables method interception and build-time weaving when your project builds.

🚀 Usage

Once installed, you can apply the attribute to your methods like so:

[Cache]
public async Task<int> ExampleMethod()
{
    // method body
}

📖 Example

[Cache]
public static string ProcessData()
{
    // method body
}

When this method is called, the attribute logic will be invoked according to its implementation.

📖 Features

Implemented:

  • [Cache] — Wraps a method call with a cache. If the cache is a hit, it is returned directly without invoking the methdo. Otherwise, the method is invoked and the result is stored in the cache.

Planned:

  • Logging Aspect
  • Retry Aspect
  • Timeout Aspect

📦 Requirements & Compatibility

  • Requires .NET 8.0 (other versions untested)
  • Method interception powered by MrAdvice (included automatically)

📅 Project Status

Active development. Breaking changes expected until 1.0.

✅ Roadmap

  • Publish NuGet package
  • Add Logging, Retry, Timeout aspects
  • Set up CI/CD pipeline with build & test badge
  • Write contribution guidelines & code style rules
