Register a MediatR pipeline with void/Task response

问题

My command:

public class Command : IRequest { ... }

My handler:

public class CommandHandler : IAsyncRequestHandler<Command> { ... }

My pipeline registration (not using open generics):

services.AddTransient<IPipelineBehavior<Command>, MyBehavior<Command>>();

However this doesn't work: Using the generic type 'IPipelineBehavior<TRequest, TResponse>' requires 2 type arguments. And same error for MyBehavior.

The docs mention the Unit struct. How do I use it?

回答1:

As Mickaël Derriey pointed out, MediatR already defines IRequest, IRequestHandler and IAsyncRequestHandler to not return a value if it isn't needed.

If you look at IRequest, you can see it actually inherits from IRequest<Unit>, which means when you process Command, your pipeline behavior MyBehavior will return the Unit struct as the response by default without needing to specify an explicit response for your Command.

As an example:

public class Command : IRequest { ... }
public class CommandHandler : IAsyncRequestHandler<Command> { ... }

services.AddTransient<IPipelineBehavior<Command,Unit>, MyBehavior<Command,Unit>>();

回答2:

I think I've figured it out, and it seems to work so far.

public class Command : IRequest<Unit> { ... }
public class CommandHandler : IAsyncRequestHandler<Command, Unit> { ... }

services.AddTransient<IPipelineBehavior<Command,Unit>, MyBehavior<Command,Unit>>();
