FluentValidation - Using a collection of validators validating the same class












0















Looking at the examples, it seems like the expected pattern for validating an object Foo is to set all the validation rules in one AbstractValidator<Foo> class.



However, I think it can be good to separate business logic of different validations to separate AbstractValidator<Foo> classes, when the validations are more complex, especially when having to call external services for the validations.



I know I can implement different AbstractValidator<Foo> and call them from a list/array,
but I am wondering, since this is a repeated pattern for me,

Is there any way to facilitate this?



I am looking for some class that get a list of AbstractValidator<Foo> and aggregate the results, optionally also running them in parallel.

  • @WimOmbelets I saw this post, in my case I am trying to call different validations for FOO and not different validations of different properties of FOO
