Usage Example

Implementing Redactors

Redactors can be implemented by inheriting from Microsoft.Extensions.Compliance.Redaction.Redactor. For example:

using Microsoft.Extensions.Compliance.Redaction;

public class StarRedactor : Redactor
{
    private const string Stars = "****";

    public override int GetRedactedLength(ReadOnlySpan<char> input) => Stars.Length;

    public override int Redact(ReadOnlySpan<char> source, Span<char> destination)
    {
        Stars.CopyTo(destination);
        return Stars.Length;
    }
}

Implementing Redactor Providers

Redactor Providers implement Microsoft.Extensions.Compliance.Redaction.IRedactorProvider. For example:

using Microsoft.Extensions.Compliance.Classification;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Compliance.Redaction;

public sealed class StarRedactorProvider : IRedactorProvider
{
    private static readonly StarRedactor _starRedactor = new();

    public static StarRedactorProvider Instance { get; } = new();

    public Redactor GetRedactor(DataClassificationSet classifications) => _starRedactor;
}
