MediatorR

Library for realization of CQS/CQRS in your applicaton. This library inspiration of MediatR from .NET

npm i mediator-r -S

Example

import MediatorR, { ICommand, IQuery, ICommandHandler, IQueryHandler, CreateProvider } from 'mediator-r';

// first argument is unique indeteficator of command, second is payload data
class CreateCommand implements ICommand<'user.create', { id: number; name: string }> {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  constructor(public readonly payload: { id: number; name: string }) {}

  async validate() {
    if (this.payload.name.length < 2) {
      throw new Error('Incorrect name');
    }
  }

  async build() {
    return new Promise<void>((resolve) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        this.payload.name = 'John';
        resolve();
      }, 5000);
    });
  }
}

class CreateHandler implements ICommandHandler<CreateCommand> {
  public readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';
  private user: { id: number; name: string };

  async validate({ payload: user }: CreateCommand) {
    if (user.name.length < 2) {
      throw new Error('Incorrect name');
    }
  }

  async exec({ payload: user }: CreateCommand ) {
    console.log('create user =>', {
      id: user.id,
      name: user.name,
    });
    this.user = user;
  }
}

/**
 * first argument is unique indeteficator of query, second is payload data
 * second argument is return data from query
*/
class GetByIdQuery implements IQuery<'user.get-by-id', number> {
  readonly __tag = 'query:user.get-by-id';

  constructor(public payload: number) {}
}


class GetByIdHandler implements IQueryHandler<GetByIdQuery, { id: number, name: string }> {
  readonly __tag = 'query:user.get-by-id';

  async exec({ payload: id }: GetByIdQuery) {
    return {
      id: id,
      name: 'John',
    };
  }
}

const schema = {
  user: {
    create: {
      action: (id: CreateCommand['payload']) => new CreateCommand(id),
      handler: () => new CreateHandler(),
      exec: (userData: CreateCommand['payload']) => mediatorR.exec(mediatorR.action.user.create(userData))
    },
    getById: {
      action: (id: GetByIdQuery['payload']) => new GetByIdQuery(id),
      handler: () => new GetByIdHandler(),
      exec: (userId: number) => mediatorR.exec(mediatorR.action.user.getById(userId))
    },
  }
};

// Declare types
export type Mediator = MediatorR<typeof schema>;
export type Provider = CreateProvider<typeof schema>;

// Initilization
export const mediatorR: Mediator = new MediatorR(schema);
export const provider: Provider = mediatorR.provider;


void (async function (mediatorR: Mediator, provider: Provider) {
  const userId = 123;

  // Manual call
  {
    await mediatorR.exec(mediatorR.action.user.create({ id: userId, name: 'John' }));
    // { id: 123 }
    const user = await mediatorR.exec(mediatorR.action.user.getById(userId));
    // { id: 123, name: 'John' }
  }

  // Call via provider
  {
    await provider.user.create({ id: userId, name: 'John' });
    // { id: 123 }
    const user = await provider.user.getById(userId);
    // { id: 123, name: 'John' }
  }
})(mediatorR, provider);

Example app

Command may return value

Often we need that handler of command return result of operation. For example, id of entity or status of operation. For this you can pass second argument to ICommandHandler, it's type of returned value.

class CreateHandler implements ICommandHandler<ICreateCommand, { id: number }> {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  async exec({ payload: user }: CreateCommand) {
    const userId = 1;
    console.log('create', {
      userId,
      name: user.name,
    });
    return { id: userId };
  }
}

Validation

You can use method validate for validation of input data in command or query:

class CreateCommand implements ICreateCommand {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  constructor(public readonly payload: string) {}

  async validate() {
    if (this.payload.name.length < 2) {
      throw new Error('Incorrect name');
    }
  }
}

The method validate is asyncronous and called after constructor.

It's also available in handler of command/query. Command or query is passed as the first argument:

class CreateHandler implements ICreateHandler {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  async validate({ payload: user }: ICreateCommand) {
    if (user.name.length < 2) {
      throw new Error('Incorrect name');
    }
  }

  async exec({ payload: user }: ICreateCommand) {
     console.log('create', {
      id: user.id,
      name: user.name,
    });
  }
}

Async build command/query

TypeScript can't support asyncronous constructor for class but sometimes you may be want to execute asyncronous actions for building command/query. The method build comes to rescue:

class CreateCommand implements ICreateCommand {
  public readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  constructor(public readonly payload: { id: number; name: string }) {}

  async build() {
    return new Promise<void>((resolve) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        this.payload.name = 'John';
        resolve();
      }, 5000);
    });
  }
}

It's asyncronous and called after validate.

Middlewares

You can use concept of middleware in command/query. The first variant is to override method middlewares which must return array of functions:

class CreateCommand implements ICommand<'user.create', { id: number; role: string[] }> {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  constructor(public readonly payload: { id: number, role: string[] }) {}

  middlewares() {
    return [this.checkRole.bind(this), this.isUser.bind(this)];
  }

  async checkRole() {
    if (!this.payload.role.includes('admin')) {
      throw new Error('Not enough access rights');
    }
  }

  async isUser() {
    if (!this.payload.id !== 1) {
      throw new Error('Not enough access rights');
    }
  }
}

The second variant is to create property middlewares which be array of functions:

class CreateCommand implements ICommand<'user.create', { id: number; role: string[] }> {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  middlewares = [this.checkRole.bind(this), this.isUser.bind(this)];

  constructor(public readonly payload: { id: number, role: string[] }) { }

  async checkRole() {
    if (!this.payload.role.includes('admin')) {
      throw new Error('Not enough access rights');
    }
  }

  async isUser() {
    if (!this.payload.id !== 1) {
      throw new Error('Not enough access rights');
    }
  }
}

Middlewares are called before methods validate and build.

After exec

This method in handler is intended for executing asynchronous action after executing method exec. For example, sending emails or notifications to another service, emitting domain events etc.

import EventEmitter from 'events';

const eventEmitter = new EventEmitter();

eventEmitter.on('user.created', ({ id, name }) => {
  console.log('User was created', { id, name });
});

class CreateHandler implements ICommandHandler<CreateCommand> {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';
  private user: { id: number; name: string };

  async exec({ payload: user }: ICreateCommand) {
     console.log('create', {
      id: user.id,
      name: user.name,
    });
    this.user = user;
  }

  async afterExec() {
    return new Promise<void>((resolve) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        eventEmitter.emit('user.created', this.user)
        resolve();
      }, 5000);
    });
  }
}

It's asyncronous and called after exec.

Invoke command/query from another command/query

If you want invoke command/query from another command/query. You can pass command/query as dependencies (DI) instead of direct import. The type Provider help you get neccessary type of command/query for injection. The command/query is injected at the moment of initialization of the mediator.

For example:

import MediatorR, { ICommand, IQuery, ICommandHandler, IQueryHandler, CreateProvider } from 'mediator-r';

class CreateCommand implements ICommand<'user.create', { id: number; name: string }> {
  readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  constructor(public readonly payload: { id: number; name: string }) {}

  async validate() {
    if (this.payload.name.length < 2) {
      throw new Error('Incorrect name');
    }
  }
}

class CreateHandler implements ICommandHandler<CreateCommand> {
  public readonly __tag = 'command:user.create';

  // Taking query getById as parameter
  constructor(private readonly providerUserModule: { getById: Provider['user']['getById'] }) {}

  async exec({ payload: user }: CreateCommand) {
    // Invoke query
    if (await this.providerUserModule.getById(user.id)) {
      throw new Error(`User with id = ${user.id} already exist`);
    }

    console.log('create user =>', {
      id: user.id,
      name: user.name,
    });
  }
}

class GetByIdQuery implements IQuery<'user.get-by-id', number> {
  readonly __tag = 'query:user.get-by-id';
  constructor(public payload: number) {}
}

class GetByIdHandler implements IQueryHandler<GetByIdQuery, { id: number, name: string }> {
  readonly __tag = 'query:user.get-by-id';

  async exec({ payload: id }: GetByIdQuery) {
    return {
      id: id,
      name: 'John',
    };
  }
}

const schema = {
  user: {
    create: {
      action: (id: CreateCommand['payload']) => new CreateCommand(id),
      handler: () =>
        // Passing query getById as parameter
        new CreateHandler({ getById: provider.user.getById })
      ,
      exec: (userData: CreateCommand['payload']) => mediatorR.exec(mediatorR.action.user.create(userData))
    },
    getById: {
      action: (id: GetByIdQuery['payload']) => new GetByIdQuery(id),
      handler: () => new GetByIdHandler(),
      exec: (userId: number) => mediatorR.exec(mediatorR.action.user.getById(userId))
    },
  }
};

Code generation

The package comes with command line utility mediator-r helps to create bolerplate code for command/query and his handler. Also, it adds statements for export of class and his type in necessary index files.

Generate code:

# Create command
npx mediator-r create-command  -f module/user/ -n Create
# Create query
npx mediator-r create-query  -f module/user/ -n GetById

Output:
module/user
├── cq
│   ├── Create.command.ts
│   ├── Create.handler.ts
│   ├── GetById.handler.ts
│   └── GetById.query.ts
├── index.cq.ts # export command/query
└── index.type.cq.ts # export type of command/query/handler
