Delivery Mechanisms

Starting a new project

Some common steps

• Web Framework
   
• Set a database
   
• Create Schema / Migration
   
• Create Model
   
• Create Controller
   
• Create View

success! :)

"Businesses regularly put too much effort into developing glorified database table editors."

Vaughn Vernon, Implementing Domain Driven Design (Perason Education, Inc: 2013), 172.

<?php
App::uses('AppController', 'Controller');

class CustomersController extends AppController {

	public function add() {
		if ($this->request->is('post')) {
			$this->Customer->create();
			if ($this->Customer->save($this->request->data)) {
				$this->Flash->success(__('The customer has been saved.'));
				return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
			} else {
				$this->Flash->error(__('The customer could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
			}
		}
	}

	public function edit($id = null) {
		if (!$this->Customer->exists($id)) {
			throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid customer'));
		}
		if ($this->request->is(array('post', 'put'))) {
			if ($this->Customer->save($this->request->data)) {
				$this->Flash->success(__('The customer has been saved.'));
				return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
			} else {
				$this->Flash->error(__('The customer could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
			}
		} else {
			$options = array('conditions' => array('Customer.' . $this->Customer->primaryKey => $id));
			$this->request->data = $this->Customer->find('first', $options);
		}
	}
}

Coupling to Controller and ORM 

<?php
App::uses('AppController', 'Controller');

class CustomersController extends AppController {

	public function add() {
		if ($this->request->is('post')) {
			$this->Customer->create();
			if ($this->Customer->save($this->request->data)) {
				$this->Flash->success(__('The customer has been saved.'));
				return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
			} else {
				$this->Flash->error(__('The customer could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
			}
		}
	}

	public function edit($id = null) {
		if (!$this->Customer->exists($id)) {
			throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid customer'));
		}
		if ($this->request->is(array('post', 'put'))) {
			if ($this->Customer->save($this->request->data)) {
				$this->Flash->success(__('The customer has been saved.'));
				return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
			} else {
				$this->Flash->error(__('The customer could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
			}
		} else {
			$options = array('conditions' => array('Customer.' . $this->Customer->primaryKey => $id));
			$this->request->data = $this->Customer->find('first', $options);
		}
	}
}

Problems found

• Difficult/slow to test
   
• Reusability almost impossible
   
• It only works in web environment
   
• Difficult to run multiple times
   
• Dependency on concretions and not abstractions

Screaming Architecture

"So what does the architecture of your application scream? When you look at the top level directory structure, and the source files in the highest level package; do they scream: Health Care System, or Accounting System, or Inventory Management System? Or do they scream: Rails, or Spring/Hibernate, or ASP?"

Uncle Bob

Layered Architecture

"Develop a design within each layer that is cohesive and that depends only on the layers below."

[Evans, Ref, p.16]

Why frameworks can't help?
