GrowthBook OpenFeature Provider for .NET

This is the official GrowthBook provider for the OpenFeature .NET SDK. It allows you to leverage GrowthBook as your feature flag system through the standardized OpenFeature API.

Quick Start

1. Install the package
2. Create a GrowthBook provider
3. Register with OpenFeature
4. Start evaluating feature flags

Requirements

• .NET 8+
• .NET Standard 2.0+ (.NET Framework 4.6.1+, .NET Core 2.0+)

Installation

dotnet add package GrowthBook.OpenFeature

Basic Usage

using GrowthBook.OpenFeature; using OpenFeature; using OpenFeature.Model; // Initialize the GrowthBook provider var provider = new GrowthBookProvider( clientKey: "sdk-abc123", apiHostUrl: "https://cdn.growthbook.io" ); // Register the provider with OpenFeature Api.Instance.SetProvider(provider); // Create an evaluation context with targeting information var context = new EvaluationContext( targetingKey: "user-123", new Dictionary<string, Value> { { "email", new Value("user@example.com") }, { "country", new Value("USA") }, { "premium", new Value(true) } } ); // Get the client var client = Api.Instance.GetClient(); // Evaluate a feature flag bool isEnabled = await client.GetBooleanValue("new-dashboard", false, context); // Use the feature flag in your application logic if (isEnabled) { // Show the new dashboard } else { // Show the old dashboard }

Available Flag Types

This provider supports all OpenFeature evaluation types:

// Boolean flags bool enabled = await client.GetBooleanValue("feature-enabled", false, context); // String flags string variant = await client.GetStringValue("button-color", "blue", context); // Integer flags int limit = await client.GetIntegerValue("api-request-limit", 100, context); // Double flags double price = await client.GetDoubleValue("subscription-price", 9.99, context); // Object flags Value config = await client.GetObjectValue("feature-config", new Value(new Dictionary<string, Value>()), context);

Advanced Usage

Using an Existing GrowthBook Instance

If you already have a GrowthBook instance configured:

// Create GrowthBook context var gbContext = new GrowthBook.Context { ApiHost = "https://cdn.growthbook.io", ClientKey = "sdk-abc123", Enabled = true, // Add additional configuration as needed }; // Create and configure a GrowthBook instance var growthBook = new GrowthBook.GrowthBook(gbContext); // Initialize the GrowthBook provider with the existing instance var provider = new GrowthBookProvider(growthBook); // Register the provider with OpenFeature Api.Instance.SetProvider(provider);

Handling Context Changes

You can update the evaluation context at any time:

// Create new context when user logs in var userContext = new EvaluationContext( targetingKey: "user-456", new Dictionary<string, Value> { { "email", new Value("new-user@example.com") }, { "subscriptionTier", new Value("premium") } } ); // Update the client with the new context client.SetEvaluationContext(userContext); // All subsequent evaluations will use the new context var result = await client.GetBooleanValue("premium-feature", false);

Project Structure

The solution consists of:

• GrowthBook.OpenFeature: The main library implementing the OpenFeature provider
• GrowthBook.OpenFeature.Tests: Unit tests for the provider

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Feature flag not found: Ensure your clientKey is correct and that the flag exists in your GrowthBook project
2. Incorrect targeting: Check that your evaluation context contains the expected targeting attributes
3. No connection to GrowthBook: Verify your apiHostUrl is correct and network connectivity is available

Debugging

Enable verbose logging to see detailed evaluation information:

OpenFeature.Api.Instance.SetLoggerFactory(new ConsoleLoggerFactory(LogLevel.Debug));
