AsyncHandler.Assembly 1.0.1

AsyncHandler.Assembly

.Net type discovery and assembly scanning made simplified.

Overview

AsyncHandler.Assembly helps simplifying type discovery overhead when searching through .Net assemblies with a bunch of helpful methods to speed up your development.

Prerequisities

The library runs on the stable release of .Net 8 and requires the SDK installed:

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0

Install the package

Iinstall AsyncHandler.Assembly package.

dotnet add package AsyncHandler.Assembly

Examples

Search for a derived type by its root.

using System.Reflection;
using AsyncHandler.Assembly;

public record AggregateRoot;
public record OrderAggregate : AggregateRoot;

var assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
var type = TDiscover.FindByAsse<AggregateRoot>(assembly);
// or typeof(AggregateRoot).FindByAsse(assembly);

Use FindByCallingAsse() to start from calling assembly all the way back to matching assembly, FindByCallingAsse() offers significant performance gains.

typeof(AggregateRoot).FindByCallingAsse(Assembly.GetCallingAssembly());

Search for a type through AppDomain, smart tricks and filters are applied to enhance the search.

public record DomainEvent;
public record OrderPlaced : DomainEvent;

TDiscover.FindByType<DomainEvent>();

To further enhance the above search, use FindByTypeName to specify the type and name as well.

public record DomainEvent;
public record OrderPlaced : DomainEvent;
public record OrderConfirmed : DomainEvent;

TDiscover.FindByTypeName<DomainEvent>("OrderPlaced");
// or typeof(DomainEvent).FindByTypeName("OrderPlaced");

Search for a type when all you have is the type name.

TDiscover.FindByTypeName("OrderPlaced");
