Is this project dead?

[Chris-Devine]

Been reading your blog and was most intrested in the 2 posts i can find:

• Shallow- and Deep Validation with FluentValidation and MediatR
• Centralized Validation- and Error-Handling

It would nice to know if you will be doing them or if you found a reason why its not feasible as i am about to go down the same road and would like to stop now before i hit a roadblock if you know any reason.

Hi @Chris-Devine,

The project is not dead, but I didnt yet find time to actually write blog posts or to make my current state of mind and experiments in these areas really worth being written down.

For the time being regarding these topics I do...

• shallow validation with the standard aspnetcore / dotnet validation attributes of the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations namespace (and also custom attributes)
  • deep validation (custom validation logic with state from the database or other services) inside MediatR handlers and then throw a custom ValidationException
  • central error handling (including ValidationExceptions) inside the Startup.Configure aspnetcore middleware pipeline using the app.UseExceptionHandler middleware

Ill try to create blogposts in the upcoming weeks but cannot promise anything...

@jannikbuschke Thanks for taking the time to write back i am going to take a look in the avenues you have exsplained and see how i do. Hopefully you get time to write your posts in the future so i can compare and improve my code.

Thanks again and good luck with your coding in the future

Looking forward to the shallow and deep validation part also.

I already started working on this blogpost, but it will still take some time. I might share the working draft if you are interested (also thinking about open sourcing the blog).
