Summary

• Polly-based retry and circuit breaker implementation.
• Automatic registration of named HttpClients.
• Configuration-driven networking behavior.

---

TaskHub.Shared.Networking provides a centralized and declarative approach to configuring HTTP communication using the HttpClientFactory and Polly.

Core Idea

The module addresses common networking concerns:

• Consistent HttpClient configuration via dependency injection.
• Controlled timeouts and retries using Polly.
• Support for multiple internal and external services.
• Elimination of duplicated networking logic.

Configuration

Networking configuration is built around two concepts:

• Global defaults: common networking behavior shared across all HTTP clients.
• Network nodes: individual remote services with optional overrides.

AppSettings Example

"Networking": {
    "Defaults": {
      "RetryCount": 3,
      "TimeoutInMilliseconds": 5000,
      "RetryDelayInMilliseconds": 100,
      "RetryStrategy": "Exponential",
      "UserAgent": "TaskHub-Client"
    },
    "Services": {
      "Google": {
        "BaseUrl": "https://google.com"
      }
    }
}

Dependency Injection

Register the networking settings in your Program.cs:

builder.Services.AddAppNetworkingSettings(builder.Configuration.GetSection("Networking").Bind);

Usage

Inject IHttpClientFactory to obtain a configured client:

public class MyService(IHttpClientFactory factory)
{
    private readonly HttpClient client = factory.CreateClient("Google");
}
