How to Implement CQRS with Separate Read and Write Models in Python

Implements Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) by splitting data into separate write and read models with dedicated repositories, using dataclasses for structure.

cqrs dataclasses repositories
Python
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import List, Dict, Optional


@dataclass
class OrderWriteModel:
    order_id: int
    customer: str
    items: List[str] = field(default_factory=list)

    def add_item(self, item: str) -> None:
        self.items.append(item)

class OrderReadModel:

How to mock a CQRS projector read model update in Python

Build a CQRS projector class that maintains denormalized read models by applying domain events in a mock order-processing service.

CQRS with Separate Read and Write Repositories in Python

Implement CQRS in Python with separate write and read repositories, using commands for mutations and frozen DTOs for queries.

cqrs repositories microservices
Python
from dataclasses import dataclass

# --- Write side: commands mutate state ---
@dataclass
class CreateUserCommand:
    id: int

class UserWriteRepository:
    def __init__(self) -> None:
        self._store: Dict[int, Dict[str, object]] = {}

Mock CQRS Read/Write Split in Python

Separate order mutations from queries using a read model and write model to mock CQRS-style separation of concerns.

cqrs read-write dataclass
Python
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import List, Dict


@dataclass
class Order:
    id: int
    amount: float

class OrderWriteModel:
    """Handles all mutations (writes) to orders."""

    def __init__(self):
        self._orders: Dict[int, Order] = {}
