Command Query Separation for ASP.NET Core

  • Provides generic actions for handling the execution of commands and queries
  • Enables APIs based on HTTP POST and GET
Get Started
  1. Create a new ASP.NET Core project
  2. Install the CommandQuery.AspNetCore package from NuGet
    • PM> Install-Package CommandQuery.AspNetCore
  3. Create commands and command handlers
    • Implement ICommand and ICommandHandler<in TCommand>
    • Or ICommand<TResult> and ICommandHandler<in TCommand, TResult>
  4. Create queries and query handlers
    • Implement IQuery<TResult> and IQueryHandler<in TQuery, TResult>
  5. Configure services in Startup.cs
Configuration

Configuration in Startup.cs:

using CommandQuery.AspNetCore;
using CommandQuery.Sample.Contracts.Commands;
using CommandQuery.Sample.Contracts.Queries;
using CommandQuery.Sample.Handlers;
using CommandQuery.Sample.Handlers.Commands;
using CommandQuery.Sample.Handlers.Queries;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
using Microsoft.OpenApi.Models;

namespace CommandQuery.Sample.AspNetCore.V5
{
    public class Startup
    {
        public Startup(IConfiguration configuration)
        {
            Configuration = configuration;
        }

        public IConfiguration Configuration { get; }

        // This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to add services to the container.
        public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
        {
            // Add commands and queries
            services.AddCommandControllers(typeof(FooCommandHandler).Assembly, typeof(FooCommand).Assembly);
            services.AddQueryControllers(typeof(BarQueryHandler).Assembly, typeof(BarQuery).Assembly);

            // Add handler dependencies
            services.AddTransient<IDateTimeProxy, DateTimeProxy>();
            services.AddTransient<ICultureService, CultureService>();

            // Swagger
            services.AddSwaggerGen(c =>
            {
                c.SwaggerDoc("v5", new OpenApiInfo { Title = "CommandQuery.Sample.AspNetCore.V5", Version = "v5" });
            });
        }

        // This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
        public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
        {
            if (env.IsDevelopment())
            {
                app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();

                // Swagger
                app.UseSwagger();
                app.UseSwaggerUI(c => c.SwaggerEndpoint("/swagger/v5/swagger.json", "CommandQuery.Sample.AspNetCore.V5"));
            }

            app.UseHttpsRedirection();

            app.UseRouting();

            app.UseAuthorization();

            app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
            {
                endpoints.MapControllers();
            });

            // Validation
            app.ApplicationServices.GetService<ICommandProcessor>().AssertConfigurationIsValid();
            app.ApplicationServices.GetService<IQueryProcessor>().AssertConfigurationIsValid();
        }
    }
}

The extension methods AddCommandControllers and AddQueryControllers will add controllers and all command/query handlers in the given assemblies to the IoC container. You can pass in a params array of Assembly arguments if your handlers are located in different projects. If you only have one project you can use typeof(Startup).Assembly as a single argument.

Commands

The action method from the generated controller will handle commands:

/// <summary>
/// Handle a command.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="command">The command.</param>
/// <param name="cancellationToken">A cancellation token that can be used by other objects or threads to receive notice of cancellation.</param>
/// <returns>The result for status code <c>200</c>, or an error for status code <c>400</c> and <c>500</c>.</returns>
[HttpPost]
public async Task<IActionResult> HandleAsync(TCommand command, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • The action is requested via HTTP POST with the Content-Type application/json in the header
  • The name of the command is the slug of the URL
  • The command itself is provided as JSON in the body
  • If the command succeeds; the response is empty with the HTTP status code 200
  • If the command fails; the response is an error message with the HTTP status code 400 or 500

Commands with result:

/// <summary>
/// Handle a command.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="command">The command.</param>
/// <param name="cancellationToken">A cancellation token that can be used by other objects or threads to receive notice of cancellation.</param>
/// <returns>The result for status code <c>200</c>, or an error for status code <c>400</c> and <c>500</c>.</returns>
[HttpPost]
public async Task<IActionResult> HandleAsync(TCommand command, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • If the command succeeds; the response is the result as JSON with the HTTP status code 200.
  • If the command fails; the response is an error message with the HTTP status code 400 or 500.
Queries

The action methods from the generated controller will handle queries:

/// <summary>
/// Handle a query.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="query">The query.</param>
/// <param name="cancellationToken">A cancellation token that can be used by other objects or threads to receive notice of cancellation.</param>
/// <returns>The result + 200, 400 or 500.</returns>
[HttpPost]
public async Task<IActionResult> HandlePostAsync(TQuery query, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
/// <summary>
/// Handle a query.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="query">The query.</param>
/// <param name="cancellationToken">A cancellation token that can be used by other objects or threads to receive notice of cancellation.</param>
/// <returns>The result + 200, 400 or 500.</returns>
[HttpGet]
public async Task<IActionResult> HandleGetAsync([FromQuery] TQuery query, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
  • The action is requested via:
    • HTTP POST with the Content-Type application/json in the header and the query itself as JSON in the body
    • HTTP GET and the query itself as query string parameters in the URL
  • The name of the query is the slug of the URL.
  • If the query succeeds; the response is the result as JSON with the HTTP status code 200.
  • If the query fails; the response is an error message with the HTTP status code 400 or 500.

You can integration test your controllers and command/query handlers with the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Testing package.
