Principles, Practices and Patterns of Domain-Driven Design

This repository is Java adaptation of sample code for the book Principles, Practices and Patterns of Domain-Driven Design. The original code is written in C#. Samples use various frameworks and technologies. These frameworks were replaced with the most close Java equivalents. Samples in some chapters are complete applications. For such chapters, I added additional readmes. I described replacements, problems, and screenshots of running apps.

Replacements

Most technologes are replaced with equivalents that are popular in the Java world.

Table 1. technologies

Original	Equivalent	Comment
ASP.NET	Spring Thymeleaf	See README in CH12, CH23
NServiceBus	RabbitMQ, ApplicationEventPublisher	See README in CH12 and CH18
Mass Transit	Kafka	See README in CH12
Syndication	rometools	See README in CH13
NHibernate	Hibernate	I skipped fluent-hibernate, see README in CH15, CH21
StringExtensions	TheString	Java doesn’t support this feature, I used a ZeLiba.
SQL Server Express	MySQL, H2, SQLite	see README CH21
StructureMap	I made DI manually	see README CH21
EntityFramework	JOOQ with SQLite	see README CH21
Dapper Micro ORM	JDBI with SQLite	see README CH21

Besides replacement of technologies, there is some language "sugar" to keep code more aligned to the book examples.

Table 2. replacements

Original	Equivalent	Comment
GUID	UUID	As it’s just an example, for this project, there is no difference
decimal	BigDecimal with TheComparable	ZeLiba for fluent comparison, as Java doesn’t support > or < for BigDecimal.
NotImplementedException	own NotImplementedException	see java-replacements
ApplicationException	own ApplicationException	see java-replacements
ArgumentNullException	NullPointerException	usually inside Objects.requireNonNull
InvalidOperationException	own InvalidOperationException	see java-replacements
IEnumerable	Arrays or List<>

Chapters with Additional Readme

Improvements are welcome! Feel free to create issues or pull requests. Fixing mistyping in readmes is also welcome!

Each readme has a ToDon’t list. It’s a list of potential improvements, but I won’t have time for them. Feel free to check them.
