Microservices patterns
Service boundaries, discovery, inter-service calls, and decomposition patterns.
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.
from dataclasses import dataclass
from typing import Dict, List, Optional
# --- Write side: commands mutate state ---
@dataclass
class CreateUserCommand:
id: int
name: str
class UserWriteRepository:
def __init__(self) -> None:
self._store: Dict[int, Dict[str, object]] = {}
def create(self,…How to Use the Adapter Pattern to Mock a Legacy System in Python
This code demonstrates the Adapter pattern, allowing a modern interface to interact with a legacy system by wrapping its outdated method.
class LegacySystem:
def legacy_method(self, data):
return f"Legacy processed: {data}"
class ModernInterface:
def process(self, data):
raise NotImplementedError
class Adapter(ModernInterface):
def __init__(self, legacy):
self.legacy = legacy
def process(self, data):
