dotnet-managedcode-storage

name	dotnet-managedcode-storage
description	Use ManagedCode.Storage when a .NET application needs a provider-agnostic storage abstraction with explicit configuration, container selection, upload and download flows, and backend-specific integration kept behind one library contract.
compatibility	Requires a .NET application that integrates ManagedCode.Storage or evaluates it as a storage abstraction.

ManagedCode.Storage

Trigger On

• integrating ManagedCode.Storage into a .NET application
• reviewing how a project abstracts file or object storage
• deciding whether to centralize storage provider differences behind one library
• documenting upload, download, container, or blob-handling flows with ManagedCode.Storage

Workflow

1. Identify the actual storage use case:
   • blob or file storage
   • provider abstraction across environments
   • app-service integration and configuration
2. Verify whether the project wants one storage contract instead of provider-specific SDK calls scattered across the codebase.
3. Keep application code dependent on the library abstraction, not directly on backend-specific storage SDKs unless a provider-only feature is truly required.
4. Centralize provider configuration, credentials, and container naming in composition-root code and typed settings.
5. Validate the real upload, download, existence-check, and deletion flows after wiring the library.

Deliver

• concrete guidance on when ManagedCode.Storage is the right abstraction
• wiring guidance that keeps provider concerns out of business code
• verification steps for the storage flows the application actually uses

Validate

• the project really benefits from a storage abstraction and is not hiding provider-specific behavior it still needs
• storage configuration is centralized and explicit
• code reviews check real read and write paths, not only registration snippets
