From ActiveRecord to EventSourcing

This document discusses moving away from an ActiveRecord pattern to using events and CQRS architecture. It describes capturing all changes as a sequence of events stored in an event store. Events are raised by domain models and handled asynchronously. Reads and writes are separated, with denormalized data stored in a read database. This allows for simpler domain models focused on objects and events rather than data access. Code examples demonstrate raising domain events, handling commands, and updating read models from stored events.

From ActiveRecord to EventSourcing
- 1. From ActiveRecord to Events Emanuele DelBono @emadb
- 6. @emadb I’m a software developer based in Italy. I develop my apps in C#, Javascript and some Ruby. I’m a wannabe Ruby dev.
- 9. O/RM
- 10. Active record “An object that wraps a row in a database table or view, encapsulates the database access, and adds domain logic on that data.” M. Fowler
- 11. Active record 1 table => 1 class Too coupled with the database structure No SRP Database first class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :email, :password belongs_to :group end
- 12. Get vs Post def index @products = Product.all end ! def create @product = Product.new(product_params) if @product.save redirect_to @product else render action: 'new' end end
- 13. Active Record A single model cannot be appropriate for reporting, searching and transactional behaviour. Greg Young
- 14. Read vs Write Reads and writes are two different concerns Reads are simpler Writes need logic
- 16. KEEP CALM AND STOP THINKING IN CRUD
- 18. CQRS Presentation Layer Handler BL Repository Write DB Read DB Query Service Denormalizer
- 19. CQRS Fully normalized Reads are easy Writes became easier SELECT fields FROM table (WHERE …)
- 20. Object state id basket_id article_id quantity 1 4 8 1 2 3 8 3 3 3 6 1 4 4 5 1
- 22. Thinking in events Every change is an event. add_item 1 add_item 2 remove_item 1 add_item 3 time
- 23. Event Sourcing Capture all changes to an application state as a sequence of events. M.Fowler If the changes are stored in a database, we can rebuild the state re-applying the events.
- 25. Event Sourcing Presentation Layer Bus Handler DMRepository Event store Denormalizer Query service Read DB Command Events
- 26. Pros • Encapsulation • Separation of concern • Simple storage • Performance/Scaling • Simple testing • More information granularity • Easy integration with other services
- 27. Cons • Complex for simple scenarios • Cost of infrastructure • Long-living objects needs time to be reconstructed • Tools needed (i.e. rebuild the state)
- 29. Ingredients • Rails app (no ActiveRecord) • Redis (pub-sub) • Sequel for querying data • MongoDb (event store) • Sqlite (Read db) • Wisper (domain events)
- 30. Domain Model Basket BasketItem Article * 1 • Fully encapsulated (no accessors) • Fully OOP • Events for communication • PORO

- 33. module CommandExecutor ! def send_command (command) class_name = command.class.name channel = class_name.sub(/Command/, '') @redis.publish channel, command.to_json end ! end send_command
- 34. def consume(data) basket = repository.get_basket(data["basket_id"]) article = repository.get_article(data["article_id"]) basket.add_item article ! basket.commit end Bus Handler Command handler
- 35. class Basket include AggregateRootHelper ! def add_item (item) raise_event :item_added, { basket_id: id, item_code: item.code, item_price: item.price } end # ... ! end add_item
- 36. def raise_event(event, args) @uncommited_events << {name: event, args: args} send "on_#{event}", args end raise_event DM (Basket) Events

- 43. Conclusion • Stop thinking in CRUD • Read and Write are different • Domain model should be based on PORO • CQRS/ES is useful in complex scenario • Ruby power helps a lot (less infrastructure code)
