Introduction

This is a fork of thenativeweb/node-cqrs-domain since the latter was deprecated. It can be very useful as domain component if you work with (d)ddd, cqrs, eventdenormalizer, host, etc.

Using factory methods for event store or / and aggregate lock in domain definition

You can replace the framework-provided implementation of event store or / and aggregate lock with the one of your own. To do that, you need to include a factory method in the options object passed to the domain constructor. Using the factory methods, the example above might become:

var myGetEventStore = require('./getEventStore.js');
var myLock = require('./myLock.js');

var domain = require('cqrs-domain')({
  domainPath: '/path/to/my/files',
  commandRejectedEventName: 'rejectedCommand',
  retryOnConcurrencyTimeout: 1000,
  snapshotThreshold: 1000,

  eventStore: function () {
    return myGetEventStore({
      host: '127.0.0.1',
      port: 2113,
      username: 'admin',
      password: 'changeit'
    });
  },

  aggregateLock: : function () {
    return myLock({
       // ....
    });
  },

  deduplication: : function () {
		return myCommandBumper({
		   // ....
		});
  }
});

When using factory methods, the objects they return are required to implement the following public interfaces:

Event Store:

  f:  init(function(err));
  f:  getNewId(function (err, id));
  f:  on(evtName, function (err));
  f:  getFromSnapshot(query, revMax, function(err, snapshot, stream));
  f:  createSnapshot(obj, function (err));
  f:  setEventToDispatched(evt, function (err));

Event Stream (returned by getFromSnapshot through the callback):

  p:  events
  p:  lastRevision
  p:  eventsToDispatch
  f:  addEvents(evts)
  f:  commit(function (err, stream));

Aggregate Lock:

  f: connect(function(err, lock))
  f: disconnect(function(err))
  f: getNewId(function(err, id))
  f: reserve(workerId, aggregateId, function(err))
  f: getAll(aggregateId, function(err, workerIds))
  f: resolve(aggregateId, function(err))

Command Bumper:

  f: connect(function(err, lock))
  f: disconnect(function(err))
  f: getNewId(function(err, id))
  f: add(key, ttl, function(err, added))

where:

  f: function
  p: property

Using custom structure loader function

You can also replace the built-in structure loader with one that suits your needs. To do that, you need to include a loading method in the options object passed to the domain constructor.

// options will contain a the domainPath, validatorExtension, and useLoaderExtensions options passed to the constructor
// as well as a definition object containing all the constructors of the domain components  ( Context, Aggregate etc. ) and error constructors ( inside errors )
function myCustomLoader(options) {
	return {
		myContext:  new Context({ name: 'myContext' }).addAggregate(new Aggregate({ name : 'agg' }, function(){}).addCommand({ name: 'cmd' }, function(){}))
	}
	// or, more probably 
	return myExternalCoolLoader(options.domainPath, options.definitions);
}
// or async
function myCustomLoaderAsync(options, callback) {
	callback(null, myExternalCoolLoader(options.domainPath, options.definitions));
}

var domain = require('cqrs-domain')({
  domainPath: '/path/to/my/files',
	structureLoader: myCustomLoader
});

Exposed errors

You can use this for example in you custom command handlers.

require('cqrs-domain').errors.ValidationError
require('cqrs-domain').errors.BusinessRuleError
require('cqrs-domain').errors.AggregateDestroyedError
require('cqrs-domain').errors.AggregateConcurrencyError
require('cqrs-domain').errors.ConcurrencyError
require('cqrs-domain').errors.DuplicateCommandError

Catch connect and disconnect events

// eventStore
domain.eventStore.on('connect', function() {
  console.log('eventStore connected');
});

domain.eventStore.on('disconnect', function() {
  console.log('eventStore disconnected');
});

// aggregateLock
domain.aggregateLock.on('connect', function() {
  console.log('aggregateLock connected');
});

domain.aggregateLock.on('disconnect', function() {
  console.log('aggregateLock disconnected');
});

// commandBumper
domain.commandBumper.on('connect', function() {
  console.log('commandBumper connected');
});

domain.commandBumper.on('disconnect', function() {
  console.log('commandBumper disconnected');
});


// anything (eventStore or aggregateLock or commandBumper)
domain.on('connect', function() {
  console.log('something connected');
});

domain.on('disconnect', function() {
  console.log('something disconnected');
});

Define the command structure

The values describes the path to that property in the command message.

domain.defineCommand({
  // optional, default is 'id'
  id: 'id',

  // optional, default is 'name'
  name: 'name',

  // optional, default is 'aggregate.id'
  // if an aggregate id is not defined in the command, the command handler will create a new aggregate instance
  aggregateId: 'aggregate.id',

  // optional, only makes sense if contexts are defined in the 'domainPath' structure
  context: 'context.name',

  // optional, only makes sense if aggregates with names are defined in the 'domainPath' structure
  aggregate: 'aggregate.name',

  // optional, but recommended
  payload: 'payload',

  // optional, if defined the command handler will check if the command can be handled
  // if you want the command to be handled in a secure/transactional way pass a revision value that matches the current aggregate revision
  revision: 'revision',

  // optional, if defined the command handler will search for a handle that matches command name and version number
  version: 'version',

  // optional, if defined theses values will be copied to the event (can be used to transport information like userId, etc..)
  meta: 'meta'
});

Define the event structure

The values describes the path to that property in the event message.

domain.defineEvent({
  // optional, default is 'correlationId'
  // will use the command id as correlationId, so you can match it in the sender
  correlationId: 'correlationId',

  // optional, default is 'id'
  id: 'id',

  // optional, default is 'name'
  name: 'name',

  // optional, default is 'aggregate.id'
  aggregateId: 'aggregate.id',

  // optional, only makes sense if contexts are defined in the 'domainPath' structure
  context: 'context.name',

  // optional, only makes sense if aggregates with names are defined in the 'domainPath' structure
  aggregate: 'aggregate.name',

  // optional, default is 'payload'
  payload: 'payload',

  // optional, default is 'revision'
  // will represent the aggregate revision, can be used in next command
  revision: 'revision',

  // optional
  version: 'version',

  // optional, if defined the values of the command will be copied to the event (can be used to transport information like userId, etc..)
  meta: 'meta',

  // optional, if defined the commit date of the eventstore will be saved in this value
  commitStamp: 'commitStamp',

  // optional, if defined and the eventstore db implemntation supports this the position of the event in the eventstore will be saved in this value
  position: 'position'
});

Define the id generator function [optional]

you can define a synchronous function

domain.idGenerator(function () {
  var id = require('uuid').v4().toString();
  return id;
});

or you can define an asynchronous function

domain.idGenerator(function (callback) {
  setTimeout(function () {
    var id = require('uuid').v4().toString();
    callback(null, id);
  }, 50);
});

Define the aggregate id generator function [optional]

you can define a synchronous function

domain.aggregateIdGenerator(function () {
  var id = require('uuid').v4().toString();
  return id;
});

or you can define an asynchronous function

domain.aggregateIdGenerator(function (callback) {
  setTimeout(function () {
    var id = require('uuid').v4().toString();
    callback(null, id);
  }, 50);
});

Wire up events [optional]

you can define a synchronous function

// pass events to bus
domain.onEvent(function (evt) {
  bus.emit('event', evt);
});

or you can define an asynchronous function

// pass events to bus
domain.onEvent(function (evt, callback) {
  bus.emit('event', evt, function ack () {
    callback();
  });
});

Initialization

domain.init(function (err, warnings) {
  // this callback is called when all is ready...
  // warnings: if no warnings warnings is null, else it's an array containing errors during require of files
});

// or

domain.init(); // callback is optional

Handling a command

domain.handle({
  id: 'b80ade36-dd05-4340-8a8b-846eea6e286f',
  name: 'enterNewPerson',
  aggregate: {
    id: '3b4d44b0-34fb-4ceb-b212-68fe7a7c2f70',
    name: 'person'
  },
  context: {
    name: 'hr'
  },
  payload: {
    firstname: 'Jack',
    lastname: 'Huston'
  },
  revision: 0,
  version: 1,
  meta: {
    userId: 'ccd65819-4da4-4df9-9f24-5b10bf89ef89'
  }
}); // callback is optional

or

domain.handle({
  id: 'b80ade36-dd05-4340-8a8b-846eea6e286f',
  name: 'renamePerson',
  aggregate: {
    id: '3b4d44b0-34fb-4ceb-b212-68fe7a7c2f70',
    name: 'person'
  },
  context: {
    name: 'hr'
  },

    firstname: 'Jack',
    lastname: 'Huston'
  },
  revision: 0,
  version: 1,
  meta: {
    userId: 'ccd65819-4da4-4df9-9f24-5b10bf89ef89'
  }
}, function (err) {
  // this callback is called when command is handled successfully or unsuccessfully
  // err can be of type:
  // - null
  // - Error
  //   {
  //     name: 'Error',
  //     message: 'optional message'
  //   }
  // - ValidationError
  //   {
  //     name: 'ValidationError',
  //     message: 'some message',
  //     more: { /* more infos */ }
  //   }
  // - BusinessRuleError
  //   {
  //     name: 'BusinessRuleError',
  //     message: 'some message',
  //     more: { /* more infos */ }
  //   }

  //       aggregateRevision: 6
  //     }
  //   }
  // - AggregateConcurrencyError
  //   {
  //     name: 'AggregateConcurrencyError',
  //     message: 'Actual revision in command is "3", but expected is "2"!',
  //     more: {
  //       aggregateId: 'ad10d2c0-6509-4cb0-86d2-76312d930001',
  //       aggregateRevision: 2,
  //       commandRevision: 3
  //     }
  //   }
});

more infos, can be useful if testing

domain.handle({
  id: 'b80ade36-dd05-4340-8a8b-846eea6e286f',
  name: 'renamePerson',
  aggregate: {
    id: '3b4d44b0-34fb-4ceb-b212-68fe7a7c2f70',
    name: 'person'
  },
  context: {
    name: 'hr'
  },
  payload: {
    firstname: 'Jack',
    lastname: 'Huston'
  },
  revision: 0,
  version: 1,
  meta: {
    userId: 'ccd65819-4da4-4df9-9f24-5b10bf89ef89'
  }
}, function (err, events, aggregateData, metaInfos) {
  // this callback is called when command is handled successfully or unsuccessfully
  // err: is the same as described before

  // events: same as passed in 'onEvent' function
  // events: in case of no error here is the array of all events that should be published
  // events: in case of error are the one of these Errors (ValidationError, BusinessRuleError, AggregateDestroyedError, AggregateConcurrencyError)
  // converted in an event with the event name defined in the options (default is 'commandRejected')

  // aggregateData: represents the aggregateData after applying the resulting events

  // metaInfos: { aggregateId: '3b4d44b0-34fb-4ceb-b212-68fe7a7c2f70', aggregate: 'person', context: 'context' }
});

Request domain information

After the initialization you can request the domain information:

domain.init(function (err) {
  domain.getInfo();
  // ==>
  // { contexts: [
  //   {
  //      "name": "hr",
  //      "aggregates": [
  //        {
  //          "name": "person",
  //          "version": 3,
  //          "commands": [
  //            {
  //              "name": "enterNewPerson",
  //              "version": 0,
  //							"preconditions": [...]
  //            },
  //            {
  //              "name": "unregisterAllContactInformation",
  //              "version": 2,
  //							"preconditions": [...]
  //            },
  //            {

});

Components definition

Context

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineContext({
  // optional, default is the directory name
  name: 'hr'
});

Externally loaded context ( self-loaded )

A special option to define a context with all its aggregates, commands, events and rules exists by adding the externallyLoaded option to the context :

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineContext({
  // optional, default is the directory name
  name: 'hr',
  externallyLoaded: true
});

When doing so the context will be added 'as-is' to the domain, this means it won't go trough the normal tree loading and parsing process.
This option is aimed mainly at plugin developers, as it leaves the responsibility of structuring the domain right in the hand of the one defining the context ( most-probably a plug-in ).

Aggregate

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineAggregate({
  // optional, default is last part of path name
  name: 'person',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 3,

  // optional, default ''
  defaultCommandPayload: 'payload',

  // optional, default ''
  defaultEventPayload: 'payload',

  // optional, default ''
  defaultPreConditionPayload: 'payload',

  // optional, default false
  // by skipping the history, only the last event will be loaded and defaultly not applyed (just to ensure the revision number increment)
  skipHistory: true,

  // optional, default false
  // only optionally needed when skipHistory is set to true, only the last event will be loaded and applyed
  applyLastEvent: true,

  // optional, default false
  // will publish the events but will not commit them to the eventstore
  disablePersistence: false
},

// optionally, define some initialization data...
{
  emails: ['[email protected]'],
  phoneNumbers: []
})

// optionally, define snapshot need algorithm...
.defineSnapshotNeed(function (loadingTime, events, aggregateData) {
  // loadingTime is the loading time in ms of the eventstore data
  // events are all loaded events in an array
  // aggregateData represents the aggregateData after applying the resulting events
  return events.length >= 200;
})

// optionally, define if snapshot should be ignored
// if true, the whole event stream will be loaded
.defineIgnoreSnapshot({
  version: 0
}, function (data) {
  return true;
})
//.defineIgnoreSnapshot({
//  version: 0
//}, true)
//.defineIgnoreSnapshot({
//  version: 0
//}) // default true

// optionally, define conversion algorithm for older snapshots
// always convert directly to newest version...
// when loaded a snapshot and it's an older snapshot, a new snapshot with same revision but with newer aggregate version will be created
.defineSnapshotConversion({
  version: 1
}, function (data, aggregate) {
  // data is the snapshot data
  // aggregate is the aggregate object

  aggregate.set('emails', data.emails);
  aggregate.set('phoneNumbers', data.phoneNumbers);

  var names = data.name.split(' ');
  aggregate.set('firstname', names[0]);
  aggregate.set('lastname', names[1]);
})
// optionally, define committingSnapshotTransformer (i.e. for GDPR: to encrypt data in storage)
.defineCommittingSnapshotTransformer({
  version: 1
}, function (data) {
  // data is the snapshot data
  data.firstname = encrypt(data.firstname);
return data;
})
// or async
.defineCommittingSnapshotTransformer({
  version: 1
}, function (data, callback) {
  // data is the snapshot data
  encrypt(data.firstname, function (err, encrypted) {
  data.firstname = encrypted;
  callback(err, data);
});
})
// optionally, define loadingSnapshotTransformer (i.e. for GDPR: to decrypt stored data)
.defineLoadingSnapshotTransformer({
  version: 1
}, function (data) {
  // data is the snapshot data
  data.firstname = decrypt(data.firstname);
return data;
})
// or async
.defineLoadingSnapshotTransformer({
  version: 1
}, function (data, callback) {
  // data is the snapshot data
  decrypt(data.firstname, function (err, decrypted) {
  data.firstname = decrypted;
  callback(err, data);

    callback(null, id);
  }, 50);
});

Command validation

All command schemas are json schemas. Hint http://jsonary.com/documentation/json-schema/

Internally the tv4 module is used for validation. Additionaly you can extend the tv4 instance with other functionality like tv4-formats, so you can easily use format constraints (i.e. 'email') for your 'string'-types. To extend tv4 just catch the validator before having initialized the domain:

domain.extendValidator(function (validator) {

  // own formats
  validator.addFormat(require('tv4-formats'));
  validator.addFormat('mySpecialFormat', function (data) {
    if (data === 'special') {
      return null;
    }
    return 'wrong format for special';
  });

  // or other schemas
  validator.addSchema({ 'mySharedSchema': { /* the schema json */ } });
  validator.addSchema('myOtherSharedSchema', { /* the schema json */ });

  // or replace the core valitator
  validator.validator(function (options, schema) {
    // options.schemas => all schemas
    // options.formats => all formats

    // sync        
    return function (cmdDataToValidate) {
      if (everythingIsOk) {
        return null;
      } else {
        return new require('cqrs-domain').errors.ValidationError('command not valid', { 'because': 'of this' });
      }
    };
    // or async
    return function (cmdDataToValidate, callback) {
      externalAsyncValidator(cmdDataToValidate, function(errors){
        if (!error) {
            callback();
        } else {
            callback(new require('cqrs-domain').errors.ValidationError('command not valid', { 'because': 'of this' }));
        }
      });
    };

  });

});

Each command schema title should match the command name. Example: enterNewPerson.json

To support multiple versions look at: unregisterAllContactInformation.json

or: unregisterAllContactInformation_v1.json unregisterAllContactInformation_v2.json

You can also have an hierarchical command extension look at:

Pre-Load-Condition

Can be used to perform some business rules before handling the command. Contrary to Pre-Conditions, these rules are applied BEFORE the aggregate is loaded.

This allows you to (for example) run checks against external information by using closures.

Tip: Pre-load conditions are especially useful when you have checks that you want to run on an aggregate, but when it is OK for those checks to run on potentially stale data (eg a view model). By doing these checks before the aggregate is locked, you avoid creating a locking bottleneck at the aggregate level, and can keep your aggregate smaller because the information for those checks is externalized to the domain. This helps for performance if the domain you are in is performance critical, and helps you keep focus on the real, strongly consistent invariants in your domain.

A Command can have multiple pre-load-conditions.

var externalDataLoader = require('some_file');

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').definePreLoadCondition({
  // the command name
  // optional, default is file name without extension,
  // if name is '' it will handle all commands that matches the appropriate aggregate
  // if name is an array of strings it will handle all commands that matches the appropriate name
  name: 'checkSomeViewModel',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 2,

  // optional, if not defined it will use what is defined as default in aggregate or pass the whole command
  payload: 'payload',

  // optional
  description: 'firstname should always be set',

  // optional, default Infinity, all pre-conditions will be sorted by this value
  priority: 1
}, function (data, callback) {
  // data is the command data
  // callback is optional, if not defined as function argument you can throw errors or return errors here (sync way)

  if (externalDataLoader.get(data.id) !== data.value) {
    return callback('not allowed');
    // or
    // return callback(new Error('not allowed'));
    // or
    // return callback(new Error()); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
    // or
    // return callback(new require('cqrs-domain').BusinessRuleError('not allowed', { /* more infos */ }));
  }

  callback(null);

  // or if callback is not defined as function argument
  // if (externalDataLoader.get(data.id) !== data.value)
//   return 'not allowed';
//   // or
//   // return new Error('not allowed');
//   // or
//   // return new Error(); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
//   // or
//   // throw new Error(); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
//   // or
//   // throw new Error('not allowed');
//   // or
//   // throw new require('cqrs-domain').BusinessRuleError('not allowed', { /* more infos */ });
// }
});

Pre-Condition

Can be used to perform some business rules before handling the command. The aggregate is locked and loaded before the pre-condition is applied.

A Command can have multiple pre-conditions.

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').definePreCondition({
  // the command name
  // optional, default is file name without extension,
  // if name is '' it will handle all commands that matches the appropriate aggregate
  // if name is an array of strings it will handle all commands that matches the appropriate name
  name: 'unregisterAllContactInformation',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 2,

  // optional, if not defined it will use what is defined as default in aggregate or pass the whole command
  payload: 'payload',

  // optional
  description: 'firstname should always be set',

  // optional, default Infinity, all pre-conditions will be sorted by this value
  priority: 1
}, function (data, aggregate, callback) {
  // data is the command data
  // aggregate is the aggregate object
  // callback is optional, if not defined as function argument you can throw errors or return errors here (sync way)

  if (!agg.has('firstname')) {
    return callback('not personalized');
    // or
    // return callback(new Error('not personalized'));
    // or
    // return callback(new Error()); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
    // or
    // return callback(new require('cqrs-domain').BusinessRuleError('not personalized', { /* more infos */ }));
  }
  callback(null);

  // or if callback is not defined as function argument
  // if (!agg.has('firstname')) {
//   return 'not personalized';
//   // or
//   // return new Error('not personalized');
//   // or
//   // return new Error(); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
//   // or
//   // throw new Error(); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
//   // or
//   // throw new Error('not personalized');
//   // or
//   // throw new require('cqrs-domain').BusinessRuleError('not personalized', { /* more infos */ });
// }
});

Command

Collect all needed infos from aggregate to generate your event(s).

Move checks out of here, the correct places are "business rules", "pre-conditions" or "pre-load consitions"!

Do NOT manipulate the aggregate here!

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineCommand({
  // optional, default is file name without extension
  name: 'enterNewPerson',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 1,

  // optional, if not defined it will use what is defined as default in aggregate or pass the whole command
  payload: 'payload',

  // optional, default undefined
  // if true, ensures the aggregate to exists already before this command was handled
  // if false, ensures the aggregate to not exists already before this command was handled
  existing: true
}, function (data, aggregate) {
  // data is the command data
  // aggregate is the aggregate object

  // if (aggregate.get('someAttr') === 'someValue' && aggregate.has('special')) { ... }

  aggregate.apply('enteredNewPerson', data);
  // or
  // aggregate.apply('enteredNewPerson', data, version);
  // or
  // aggregate.apply({
  //   event: 'enteredNewPerson',
  //   payload: data
  // });
})

// if defined it will load all the requested event streams
// useful if making bigger redesigns in domain and you need to handle a command on a new aggregate
.defineEventStreamsToLoad(function (cmd) {
  return [{ // order is new to old
    context: 'hr',
    aggregate: 'mails',
    aggregateId: cmd.meta.newAggId
  },{
    context: 'hr',
    aggregate: 'persons',
    aggregateId: cmd.aggregate.id
  }];
});

Event

This is the place where you should manipulate your aggregate.

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineEvent({
  // optional, default is file name without extension
  name: 'enteredNewPerson',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 3,

  // optional, if not defined it will use what is defined as default in aggregate or pass the whole event...
  payload: 'payload'
},
// passing a function is optional
function (data, aggregate) {
  // data is the event data
  // aggregate is the aggregate object

  aggregate.set('firstname', data.firstname);
  aggregate.set('lastname', data.lastname);
  // or
  // aggregate.set(data);
});

Business Rule

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineBusinessRule({
  // optional, default is file name without extension
  name: 'nameEquality',

  // optional
  description: 'firstname should never be equal lastname',

  // optional, default Infinity, all business rules will be sorted by this value
  priority: 1
}, function (changed, previous, events, command, callback) {
  // changed is the new aggregate object
  // previous is the old aggregate object
  // events is the array with the resulting events
  // command the handling command
  // callback is optional, if not defined as function argument you can throw errors or return errors here (sync way)

  if (changed.get('firstname') === changed.get('lastname')) {
    return callback('names not valid');
    // or
    // return callback(new Error('names not valid'));
    // or
    // return callback(new Error()); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
    // or
    // return callback(new require('cqrs-domain').BusinessRuleError('names not valid', { /* more infos */ }));
  }
  callback(null);

  // or if callback is not defined as function argument
  // if (changed.get('firstname') === changed.get('lastname')) {
//   return 'names not valid';
//   // or
//   // return new Error('names not valid');
//   // or
//   // return new Error(); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
//   // or
//   // throw new Error(); // if no error message is defined then the description will be taken
//   // or
//   // throw new Error('names not valid');
//   // or
//   // throw new require('cqrs-domain').BusinessRuleError('names not valid', { /* more infos */ });
// }
});

EventTransformer

i.e. useful for GDPR relevant data... to have your data encrypted in the eventstore

// i.e. encrypt module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineCommittingEventTransformer({ // optional, default is file name without extension name: 'enteredNewPerson',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 3
},
// passing a function is optional
function (evt) {
  evt.payload.firstname = encrypt(evt.payload.firstname);
return evt;
});

// or async module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineCommittingEventTransformer({ // optional, default is file name without extension name: 'enteredNewPerson',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 3
},
// passing a function is optional
function (evt, callback) {
  encrypt(evt.payload.firstname, function (err, encrypted) {
  evt.payload.firstname = encrypted;
  callback(err, evt);
});
});

// i.e decrypt module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineLoadingEventTransformer({ // optional, default is file name without extension name: 'enteredNewPerson',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 3
},
// passing a function is optional
function (evt) {
  evt.payload.firstname = decrypt(evt.payload.firstname);
return evt;
});

// or async module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineLoadingEventTransformer({ // optional, default is file name without extension name: 'enteredNewPerson',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 3
},
// passing a function is optional
function (evt, callback) {
  decrypt(evt.payload.firstname, function (err, decrypted) {
  evt.payload.firstname = decrypted;
  callback(err, evt);
});
});

Command Handler (Be careful!!!)

Is your use case not solvable without a custom command handling? Sagas? Micro-Services?

module.exports = require('cqrs-domain').defineCommandHandler({
  // optional, default is file name without extension
  name: 'enterNewSpecialPerson',

  // optional, default 0
  version: 1,

  // optional, if not defined it will pass the whole command...
  payload: 'payload'
}, function (aggId, cmd, commandHandler, callback) {
  // aggId is the aggregate id
  // cmd is the command data

  commandHandler.loadAggregate(aggId, function (err, aggregate, stream) {
    if (err) {
      return callback(err);
    }

    callback(null, [{ my: 'special', ev: 'ent' }]);

//    // check if destroyed, check revision, validate command
//    var err = commandHandler.verifyAggregate(aggregate, cmd);
//    if (err) {
//      return callback(err);
//    }
//
//    // call api or emit a command or whatever...
//    // and at the end perhaps you call: commandHandler.handle(cmd, callback);
  });
});

ES6 default exports

Importing ES6 style default exports is supported for all definitions where you also use module.exports:

module.exports = defineContext({...});

works as well as

exports.default = defineContext({...});

as well as (must be transpiled by babel or tsc to be runnable in node)

export default defineContext({...});

Also:

exports.default = defineAggregate({...});
exports.default = defineCommand({...});
exports.default = defineEvent({...});
// etc...

Exports other than the default export are then ignored by this package's structure loader.
