Transcript

1. DDD & REST Domain-Driven APIs for the web / olivergierke Oliver Gierke
3. Background 3
4. 4 Spring Data Repositories &
 Aggregates Spring HATEOAS Hypermedia
 for Spring MVC Spring Data REST
5. REST ≠ 
 CRUD via HTTP 5
6. What does it take to bridge the worlds of DDD & REST? “
10. Value objects 9
11. Stringly typed code 10 public class Customer { private Long id; private String firstname, lastname, email; … }
12. Stringly typed code 11 public class SomeService { public void createUser(String firstname,
 String lastname, String email) { … } }
13. 12 public class Customer { private Long id; private Firstname firstname; private Lastname lastname; private EmailAddress emailAddress; … }
14. Value Objects are a
 PITA to build in
 some languages. 13
15. Still, they’re worth it. 14 See „Power Use of Value Objects in DDD“ by Dan Bergh Johnsson.
16. Lombok — putting the spice back into Java. 15
17. 16 @Value public class Customer { UUID id = UUID.randomUUID(); Firstname firstname; Lastname lastname; EmailAddress email; @Value static class EmailAddress { String value; } }
18. AutoValue 17 Project website on GitHub.
19. Key opponents: Mapping libraries
 that need to
 (de)serialize them. 18
20. Entities & Repositories 19
21. 20 Order LineItem Product Invoice Customer Payment Address Email
22. 20 Order LineItem Product Invoice Customer Payment Address Email
23. Entity +
 Repository = 
 Aggregate 21
24. Aggregates form nice representation boundaries. 22
25. Aggregates become
 the key things
 to refer to. 23
26. Don’t get trapped by datastore thinking. 24
27. Try to avoid 
 bi-directional relationships. 25
28. Domain Events 26
29. 27 Level 0: No events at all
30. 27 Level 0: No events at all Level 1: Explicit operations
31. If you’re calling two setters in a row, you’re missing a concept. 28
32. 29 Level 0: No events at all Level 1: Explicit operations
33. 29 Level 0: No events at all Level 1: Explicit operations Level 2: Some operations as events
34. Domain events as
 state transitions. 30
35. Expose important
 events to interested parties via feeds. 31
36. 32 Level 0: No events at all Level 1: Explicit operations Level 2: Some operations as events
37. 32 Level 0: No events at all Level 1: Explicit operations Level 2: Some operations as events Level 3: Event Sourcing
38. REST 33
39. Representation design matters 34
40. Aggregates Identifiable
 Referable
 Scope of consistency 35
41. Resources Identifiable
 Referable
 Scope of consistency 36
42. Hypermedia 37
43. Serving data and navigation information
 at the same time. 38
44. Trading domain knowledge with protocol complexity in clients. 39
45. Reducing decisions in clients to whether a
 link is present or not. 40
46. Prefer explicit 
 state transitions over poking at your resources using PATCH. 41
47. Translate domain concepts into web- appropriate ones. 42
48. 43 Aggregate Root / Repository Collection / Item Resources IDs URIs @Version ETags Last Modified Property Last Modified Header Relations Links
49. RESTBucks payment expected preparing cancelled ready completed 1 2 3 4 5 6
50. Method URI Action Step POST /orders Create new order 1 POST/PATCH /orders/{id} Update the order (only if "payment expected") 2 DELETE /orders/{id} Cancel order (only if "payment expected") 3 PUT /orders/{id}/payment Pay order (only if "payment expected") 4 Barista preparing the order GET /orders/{id} Poll order state 5 GET /orders/{id}/receipt Access receipt DELETE /orders/{id}/receipt Conclude the order process 6
51. Method Resource type Action Step POST orders Create new order 1 POST/PATCH update Update the order 2 DELETE cancel Cancel order 3 PUT payment Pay order 4 Barista preparing the order GET order Poll order state 5 GET receipt Access receipt DELETE receipt Conclude the order process 6
