Version 8.0.1

Version 8.0.1

Updates

• Changing AddByAttribute extension take a single optional tag filter instead of a list of tag filters.
  • Was AddByAttribute(params object[] tagFilters).
  • Now AddByAttribute(object? tagFilter = null).

Breaking Changes

• When calling AddByAttribute only services with a specified tag filter will be registered. Previously it would register all untagged services when a tag was passed in.
  • This means you will need to call AddByAttribute multiple times if you are using tags. Once with no tag filter (this will register all untagged services), then once for each tag you want to register.
  • This change was made mainly to make tags easier to understand. Also, the params parameter didn't allow you to specify the order that tagged services were registered in.

Version 8.0.0

Version 8.0.0

Updates

• Targeting .NET Standard 2.0.
• Adding Key and Tag properties to all register attributes.
• The dependency Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions has been upgraded to version 8.0.0.
  • This was to include Keyed service support.
• Adding AddByAttribute() service collection extensions to align more with other common naming convensions.
  • The previous extension RegisterDependenciesByAttribute() has been marked as obsolete.
• Adding Analyzers
  • Errors when a service type is incompatible with the class you are trying to use it with.
  • Error when a class is invalid (i.e. abstract, static, no public constructors).
  • Warnings when a Key or Tag has a value that will result in a reference comparison.

Breaking Changes

• Tags have been dramatically altered.
  • These are no longer a constructor argument, instead they are a property.
  • Only one is allowed per attribute, previously it was unlimmited.
• Service collection extensions have changed.
  • When you add services by attribute, you no longer pull in all tagged services when you don't include a tag.
  • You will only get tagged services when the tag is explicitly included
  • You get all untagged services even if you include a tag.
• Removing extensibility (i.e. ObjectFactory). This was not useful and had very limited use cases.
