Domain Specific Language

A domain-specific language is a computer language specialized to a particular application domain.

Imperative

Using imperative programming we need to describe how to solve problem.

Declarative

Using declarative programming we need to describe what needs to be solved.

List<Session> results = []
for (Session candidate in sessions) {
    if (candidate.speaker == me) {
        results.add(candidate)
    }
}
select * from speaker
where sp.speaker = :me

External

Defines own syntax with its own parser.

Internal

Uses existing general purpose programming language

select * from session
where speaker = :me
create.select()
      .from(SESSION)
      .where(SESSION.SPEAKER.eq(me));

Examples - jOOQ

create.select(AUTHOR.FIRST_NAME, AUTHOR.LAST_NAME, count())
      .from(AUTHOR)
      .join(BOOK).on(AUTHOR.ID.equal(BOOK.AUTHOR_ID))
      .where(BOOK.LANGUAGE.eq("DE"))
      .and(BOOK.PUBLISHED.gt(date("2008-01-01")))
      .groupBy(AUTHOR.FIRST_NAME, AUTHOR.LAST_NAME)
      .having(count().gt(5))
      .orderBy(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.asc().nullsFirst())
      .limit(2)
      .offset(1)

Examples - Spreadsheet Builder

PoiSpreadsheetBuilder.create(file).build {                                              
    sheet('Sample') {                                                                   
        row {                                                                           
            cell 'A'                                                                    
            cell 'B'
            cell 'C'
        }
        row {
            cell 1
            cell 2
            cell 3
        }
    }
}

Examples - Gru

void 'upload file with message'() {
    expect:
        gru.test {
            post '/moons/upload', {
                upload {                                                            
                    params message: 'Hello'                                         
                    file 'theFile', 'hello.txt', inline('Hello World'), 'text/plain'
                }
                executes controller.&postWithMessageAndImage                        
            }
            expect {
                json 'uploadResult.json'
            }
        }
}
static <U extends ControllerUnitTest> RequestDefinitionBuilder executes(
    RequestDefinitionBuilder self, 
    Closure method
) {
    if (!(method instanceof MethodClosure)) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException('Closure must be method closure.')
    }
    self.command(UrlMappingsMinion) {
        action = method as MethodClosure
    }
}

Examples - UML (yUML)

[note: You can stick notes on diagrams too!{bg:skyblue}]
[Customer]<>1-orders 0..*>[Order]
[Order]++*-*>[LineItem]
[Order]-1>[DeliveryMethod]
[Order]*-*>[Product]
[Category]<->[Product]
[DeliveryMethod]^[National]
[DeliveryMethod]^[International]
