UseInMemory

Adds in-memory database support for testing and development. No external database required. Data is lost when the application shuts down.

Signature

public static TraxEffectBuilderWithData UseInMemory(
    this TraxEffectBuilder effectBuilder
)

Parameters

None.

Returns

TraxEffectBuilderWithData — a subclass of TraxEffectBuilder that unlocks data-dependent methods like AddDataContextLogging. This provides compile-time safety: methods that require a data provider are only available on the returned type.

Example

services.AddTrax(trax => trax
    .AddEffects(effects => effects
        .UseInMemory()
    )
    .AddMediator(typeof(Program).Assembly)
);

Remarks

• Suitable for unit/integration testing and local development.
• Data does not persist between application restarts.
• Registers an IDataContext backed by an in-memory EF Core provider.
• For production use, use UsePostgres instead.

Package

dotnet add package Trax.Effect.Data.InMemory
