SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Blong needs a structured way to connect with external systems without leaking protocol specifics into business logic. The adapter pattern hides transport details and provides high-level APIs for consistent usage across realms.

Core Features & Use Cases

HTTP/TCP/DB adapters: Support for REST APIs, sockets, and SQL databases to connect external services.
Unified integration: Encapsulates protocol specifics behind framework-compatible interfaces for reuse.
Testing & deployment: Includes sample configurations, mocks, and deployment guidance for adapters.

Quick Start

Create a simple adapter under realmname/adapter/http.ts, configure the adapter in server.ts, and deploy as a microservice to connect Blong to an external system.

FAQPage Schema

How do I integrate SQL databases and HTTP APIs without leaking protocol details into business logic?▼

To integrate external systems without leaking protocol details, use an adapter pattern that hides transport specifics behind framework-compatible interfaces. This provides high-level APIs for consistent usage across realms, supporting HTTP, TCP, and SQL contexts without cluttering business logic.

How do I set up an HTTP adapter to connect Blong to an external REST API?▼

To set up an HTTP adapter, create a file under realmname/adapter/http.ts and configure the adapter in server.ts. You then deploy it as a microservice to connect Blong to the external REST API using the framework's adapter model and included sample configurations.

Does the Blong adapter pattern support TCP sockets and webhook endpoints?▼

Yes, the Blong adapter pattern supports TCP sockets and webhook endpoints. It enables API integrations, databases, and message queues across HTTP, TCP, and SQL contexts, providing a unified integration interface for these external services.

What is the best way to test external system integrations using the adapter model?▼

The best way to test external system integrations is by using the included sample configurations and mocks. The adapter model provides deployment guidance and testing components that allow you to validate protocol encapsulation before deploying the adapter as a microservice.

Can I reuse the same adapter configuration across multiple realms?▼

Yes, you can reuse adapter configurations across multiple realms. The adapter pattern encapsulates protocol specifics behind framework-compatible interfaces specifically designed for reuse, ensuring consistent external system connectivity regardless of the realm.

When should I avoid using adapters for external system integration?▼

You should avoid using adapters if your project requires direct protocol manipulation rather than encapsulated transport details. The adapter model is designed to hide protocol specifics, so it is not suitable if your business logic explicitly depends on raw HTTP, TCP, or SQL protocol handling.
