Message Middleware

[viniciuschiele]

Describe the feature

It would be very helpful if aws-dotnet-messaging supported message middleware (or interceptors) that can be executed when sending or receiving messages to/from the broker. This middleware should allow custom logic to run before or after message publication and processing, similar to ASP.NET middleware or the pipeline in MediatR.

Middleware could be implemented as a chain or pipeline of delegates that operate on the message context, allowing users to perform cross-cutting concerns such as:

• Logging
• Message Enrichment
• Retry logic

Note: Currently, implementing these behaviors is quite difficult because the library makes some of its core classes internal, such as SQSPublisher and EnvelopeSerializer, this limits the customization.

Use Case

• Custom Retry Policies:
  Adding logic to retry messages under certain conditions, such as transient database exception.
• Logging & Auditing:
  Logging message metadata or contents for auditing purposes, both on the producer and consumer sides.
• Message Enrichment or Transformation:
  Modifying message headers before they are sent, or before they are processed.
