SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing a domain event bus architecture, enabling decoupled communication between different parts of your application and ensuring transactional safety.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Event Registration: Define and register domain events within your aggregates.
  • Event Publishing: Safely publish events after transaction commits using transaction.on_commit.
  • Event Handling: Create and register handlers for domain events.
  • Use Case: When a new user is created, automatically publish a UserCreatedEvent that triggers an email notification and updates a search index, all without the user creation logic directly knowing about these downstream processes.

Quick Start

Follow the guide to implement domain events by defining an event, registering it in an aggregate, and publishing it from a service after a transaction commit.

FAQPage Schema
How do I publish domain events safely after a transaction commit in Django?

Register domain events within your aggregates to maintain domain purity, ensuring the aggregate's core logic records the event without directly depending on external handler implementations or messaging infrastructure.

How do I implement an event bus for decoupled communication in Python?

Implement an event bus for decoupled communication in Python by defining core contracts, establishing a package structure, and creating adapters for synchronous and asynchronous processing to route events to registered handlers.

Can I use both synchronous and asynchronous handlers with domain events?

Yes, you can use both synchronous and asynchronous handlers with domain events by configuring the respective adapters provided in the event bus architecture, allowing flexible processing based on your application's requirements.

What is the best way to trigger downstream processes after a new user is created?

The best way to trigger downstream processes after a new user is created is to publish a `UserCreatedEvent`, which asynchronously initiates tasks like sending email notifications and updating a search index without coupling core creation logic.

Why should I use an event-driven architecture for domain events?

You should use an event-driven architecture for domain events to achieve decoupled communication between application parts, ensuring transactional safety and maintaining domain purity by isolating core logic from downstream side effects.
