ts-request-mediator v1.1.7

Framework agnostic request mediator

Advantages

• written on typescript
• simple and lightweight
• clean API
• supports middlewares as decorators

  }
}

Architecture design

Scopes

• application
• request
• useCase
• service

Request scope

  flowchart LR;
      requestHandler1-->requestHandler2-->id1{{targetHandler}}-->requestHandler3-->requestHandler4;

Example:

  flowchart LR;
      AuthorizeUser-->id1{{CreateTodo}}-->LogRequest;

Use case scope

  flowchart LR;
      useCaseHandler1-->useCaseHandler2-->id1{{targetHandler}}-->useCaseHandler3-->useCaseHandler4;

Example:

  flowchart LR;
      SetUserContext-->id1{{CreateTodo}}-->DoSmthAfter;

Service scope

  flowchart LR;
      serviceHandler1-->serviceHandler2-->id1{{targetHandler}}-->serviceHandler3-->serviceHandler4;

Usage

Describe a use case

import { IQueryHandler, request, context, transaction, useService, inject } from "ts-request-mediator";
import { by } from "ts-ioc-container";

@transaction
@request("before", [AuthorizeUser])
@request("after", [LogRequest])
@useCase("before", [SetUserContext])
class CreateTodo implements IQueryHandler<CreateTodoQuery, Todo> {
  constructor(
    @inject(by(ITodoRepositoryKey)) private todoRepository: ITodoRepository,
    @inject(context(IUserKey)) private user: IUser,
    @inject(useService(INotifyAllUsersKey, { transaction: true })) private notifyAllUsers: INotifyAllUsers
  ) {
  }

  @before
  validate(query: CreateTodoQuery): void {
    PermissionError.assert(this.user.isAdmin, "User has no permission to create a todo");
  }

  async handle(query: CreateTodoQuery): Promise<Todo> {
    const todo = await this.todoRepository.create(query);
    return todo;
  }

  @after
  async notify(query: CreateTodoQuery, todo: Todo): Promise<void> {
    await this.notifyAllUsers.handle(todo);
  }
}

const INotifyAllUsersKey = Symbol("INotifyAllUsers");
interface INotifyAllUsers extends IQueryHandler<Todo, void> {
}

class NotifyAllUsers implements INotifyAllUsers {
  constructor(
    @inject(by(INotificationServiceKey)) private notificationService: INotificationService
  ) {
  }

  async handle(todo: Todo): Promise<void> {
    const users = await this.userRepository.findAll();
    await this.notificationService.notify(users, `New todo created: ${todo.title}`);
  }
}

Wrap your dependency container into adapter

import { IDependencyContainer } from 'ts-ioc-container';

export class ContainerAdapter implements IDependencyContainer {
  constructor(private container: IContainer) {}

  createScope(tags: string[]): IDependencyContainer {
    return new ContainerAdapter(this.container.createScope(tags));
  }

  dispose(): void {
    this.container.dispose();
  }

  registerValue(key: string | symbol, value: unknown): void {
    this.container.register(fromValue(value).forKey(key).build());
  }

  resolve<T>(key: constructor<T> | symbol): T {
    return this.container.resolve(key);
  }
}

Create mediator

const mediator = new RequestMediator(new ContainerAdapter(container));

And finally invoke your use case

const todo = await mediator.send(CreateTodo, {title: 'Buy milk', description: '2% fat'});

Implement your transaction context and put into DI container

import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client';
import { forKey, Resolveable } from 'ts-ioc-container';
import { ITransactionContextKey, ITransactionContext } from 'ts-request-mediator';
import { perApplication } from '../../core/di';

@perApplication
@forKey(ITransactionContextKey)
export class PrismaTransactionContext implements ITransactionContext {
  constructor(public dbClient: PrismaClient = new PrismaClient()) {}

  execute<Response>(setContext: (context: ITransactionContext) => Promise<Response>): Promise<Response> {
    return this.dbClient.$transaction((transactionClient) =>
      setContext(new PrismaTransactionContext(transactionClient as PrismaClient)),
    );
  }
}

export const prismaClient = (c: Resolveable) =>
  l.resolve<PrismaTransactionContext>(ITransactionContextKey).dbClient;
