KafkaGenericProcessor.Core 0.0.2

KafkaGenericProcessor.Core

NOTE: This library is 100% vibe code material, the requirements were wrapping the KafkaFlow library to provide a simplified consume + consumeproduce + produce abilities with an easy simple fluent pattern. this library is NOT production ready, do NOT use it in production, contributions are welcomed, but please vibe code them 🤟

A robust, type-safe framework for building Kafka message processing applications in .NET. Simplify your Kafka consumer and producer implementation with a comprehensive set of features designed for enterprise applications.

Features

• Type-Safe Processing: Handle Kafka messages with strongly-typed processors and serializers
• Middleware Pipeline: Process messages through configurable middleware chains
• Validation: Built-in support for message validation before processing
• Error Handling: Comprehensive exception hierarchy with automatic handling
• Retry Policies: Exponential backoff retry mechanism with configurable parameters
• Health Checks: Built-in health monitoring for Kafka connectivity
• Structured Logging: Consistent, correlation-based logging throughout the processing pipeline
• Performance Metrics: Track processing times and throughput
• Correlation IDs: Trace messages through the entire processing pipeline

Quick Start

Installation

dotnet add package KafkaGenericProcessor.Core

Basic Configuration

Add the following to your appsettings.json:

{
  "Kafka": {
    "Configurations": {
      "order-processor": {
        "Brokers": ["kafka-broker:9092"],
        "ConsumerTopic": "incoming-orders",
        "ProducerTopic": "processed-orders",
        "GroupId": "order-processing-group",
        "WorkersCount": 10,
        "BufferSize": 100,
        "CreateTopicsIfNotExists": true
      }
    }
  }
}

Register Services

// In Program.cs or Startup.cs
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    // Add required services
    services.AddLogging();
    
    // Register your message processors and validators
    services.AddKeyedTransient<IMessageProcessor<OrderMessage, ProcessedOrderMessage>, OrderProcessor>("order-processor");
    services.AddKeyedTransient<IMessageValidator<OrderMessage>, OrderValidator>("order-processor");
    
    // Configure Kafka Generic Processor
    services
        .AddKafkaGenericProcessors(Configuration)
        .AddConsumerProducerProcessor<OrderMessage, ProcessedOrderMessage>("order-processor")
        .Build();
}

Create Message Types

public class OrderMessage
{
    public string OrderId { get; set; }
    public string CustomerName { get; set; }
    public decimal Amount { get; set; }
}

public class ProcessedOrderMessage
{
    public string OrderId { get; set; }
    public string Status { get; set; }
    public DateTimeOffset ProcessedAt { get; set; }
}

Implement Processor

public class OrderProcessor : IMessageProcessor<OrderMessage, ProcessedOrderMessage>
{
    private readonly ILogger<OrderProcessor> _logger;
    
    public OrderProcessor(ILogger<OrderProcessor> logger)
    {
        _logger = logger;
    }
    
    public async Task<ProcessedOrderMessage> ProcessAsync(
        OrderMessage input, 
        string correlationId, 
        CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
    {
        _logger.LogInformation(
            "Processing order {OrderId} for customer {CustomerName}. CorrelationId: {CorrelationId}", 
            input.OrderId, input.CustomerName, correlationId);
            
        // Process the order (your business logic here)
        await Task.Delay(100, cancellationToken);
        
        return new ProcessedOrderMessage
        {
            OrderId = input.OrderId,
            Status = "Processed",
            ProcessedAt = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow
        };
    }
}

Implement Validator

public class OrderValidator : IMessageValidator<OrderMessage>
{
    public async Task<bool> ValidateAsync(
        OrderMessage message, 
        string correlationId, 
        CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
    {
        var errors = await GetValidationErrorsAsync(message, correlationId, cancellationToken);
        return !errors.Any();
    }
    
    public Task<IReadOnlyList<ValidationError>> GetValidationErrorsAsync(
        OrderMessage message, 
        string correlationId, 
        CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
    {
        var errors = new List<ValidationError>();
        
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(message.OrderId))
        {
            errors.Add(new ValidationError("OrderId", "Order ID is required"));
        }
        
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(message.CustomerName))
        {
            errors.Add(new ValidationError("CustomerName", "Customer name is required"));
        }
        
        if (message.Amount <= 0)
        {
            errors.Add(new ValidationError("Amount", "Amount must be greater than zero"));
        }
        
        return Task.FromResult<IReadOnlyList<ValidationError>>(errors);
    }
}
