Revo Framework

Revo is an application framework for modern server C#/.NET applications built with event sourcing, CQRS and DDD.

Development of this framework is supported by OLIFY - smarter solution for facility management & maintenance.

⚑️ Features

The project combines the concepts of event sourcing, CQRS and DDD to provide framework for building applications that are scalable, maintainable, can work in distributed environments and are easy to integrate with outside world. As such, it takes some rather opinionated approaches on the design of certain parts of its architecture. Revo also offers other common features and infrastructure that is often necessary for building complete applications – for example, authorizations, validations, messaging, integrations, multi-tenancy or testing. Furthermore, its extensions implement other useful features like entity history change-tracking, auditing or user notifications.

Domain-Driven Design
Building blocks for rich DDD-style domain models (aggregates, entities, value objects, domain events, repositories...).

Event Sourcing
Implementing event-sourced entity persistence with support for multiple event store backends (PostgreSQL, MSSQL, SQLite...).

CQRS
Segregating command and query responsibilities with:

A/synchronous event processing
Support for both synchronous and asynchronous event processing, guaranteed at-least-once delivery, event queues with strict sequence ordering (optionally), event source catch-ups, optional pseudo-synchronous event dispatch for listeners (projectors, for example).

Data access
Thin abstraction layer for easy data persistence (e.g. querying read models) using Entity Framework Core, Entity Framework 6, RavenDB, testable in-memory database or other data providers. Includes support for simple database migrations.

Projections
Support for read-model projections with various backends (e.g. Entity Framework Core (PostgreSQL, MSSQL, SQLite,...), Entity Framework 6, RavenDB...), automatic idempotency- and concurrency-handling, etc.

SOA, messaging and integration
Scale and integrate by publishing and receiving events, commands and queries using common messaging patterns,
e.g. with RabbitMQ message queue (using EasyNetQ connector or Rebus service bus).

Sagas
Coordinating long-running processes or inter-aggregate cooperation with sagas that react to events
(a.k.a. process managers).

Authorization
Basic permission/role-based ACL for commands and queries, fine-grained row filtering.

Other minor features:

πŸ‘“ Show me how it looks!

Super-short example of a simple application that can save tasks using event-sourced aggregates and then query them back from a RDBMS.

Event

The event that happens when changing a task's name.

public class TodoRenamedEvent : DomainAggregateEvent
{
    public TodoRenamedEvent(string name)
    {
        Name = name;
    }

    public string Name { get; }
}

Aggregate

The task aggregate root.

public class Todo : EventSourcedAggregateRoot
{
    public Todo(Guid id, string name) : base(id)
    {
        Rename(name);
    }
    
    protected Todo(Guid id) : base(id)
    {
    }
    
    public string Name { get; private set; }
    
    public void Rename(string name)
    {
        if (!Name != name)
        {
            Publish(new TodoRenamedEvent(name));
        }
    }
    
    private void Apply(TodoRenamedEvent ev)
    {
        Name = ev.Name;
    }
}

Command and command handler

Command to save a new task.

public class CreateTodoCommand : ICommand
{
    public CreateTodoCommand(string name)
    {
        Name = name;
    }

    [Required]
    public string Name { get; }
}
public class TodoCommandHandler : ICommandHandler<CreateTodoCommand>
{
    private readonly IRepository repository;
    
    public TodoCommandHandler(IRepository repository)
    {
        this.repository = repository;
    }
    
    public Task HandleAsync(CreateTodoCommand command, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var todo = new Todo(command.Id);
        todo.Rename(command.Name);
        repository.Add(todoList);
        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }   
}

Read model and projection

Read model and a projection for the event-sourced aggregate.

public class TodoReadModel : EntityReadModel
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
}
public class TodoListReadModelProjector : EFCoreEntityEventToPocoProjector<Todo, TodoReadModel>
{
    public TodoListReadModelProjector(IEFCoreCrudRepository repository) : base(repository)
    {
    }
    
    private void Apply(IEventMessage<TodoRenamedEvent> ev)
    {
        Target.Name = ev.Event.Name;
    }
}

Query and query handler

Query to read the tasks back from a RDBMS.

public class GetTodosQuery : IQuery<IQueryable<TodoReadModel>>
{
}
public class TaskQueryHandler : IQueryHandler<GetTodoQuery, IQueryable<TodoReadModel>>
{
    private readonly IReadRepository readRepository;
    
    public TaskListQueryHandler(IReadRepository readRepository)
    {
        this.readRepository = readRepository;
    }
    
    public Task<IQueryable<TodoReadModel>> HandleAsync(GetTodoListsQuery query, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        return Task.FromResult(readRepository
            .FindAll<TodoListReadModel>());
    }
}

πŸš€ Getting started

If you are new to the framework, you can

You can also start by reading the πŸ“˜ reference guide.

πŸ“¦ Packages

Released version are available in form of NuGet packages.
There is also a separate pre-release CI package feed at Azure.

Core
Revo.Core NuGet package version
Revo.DataAccess NuGet package version
Revo.Domain NuGet package version
Revo.Infrastructure NuGet package version
Revo.Testing NuGet package version
Data access
Revo.EFCore NuGet package version
Revo.EF6 NuGet package version
Revo.RavenDB NuGet package version
Platforms
Revo.AspNetCore NuGet package version
Revo.Hangfire NuGet package version
Integrations
Revo.EasyNetQ (RabbitMQ connector) NuGet package version
Revo.Rebus (service bus, deprecated) NuGet package version
Other extensions
Revo.Extensions.History NuGet package version
Revo.Extensions.Notifications NuGet package version

Most applications will require at least Revo.Core, Revo.DataAccess, Revo.Domain, Revo.Infrastructure packages to get started with and then typically a platform package like Revo.Platforms.AspNetCore (ASP.NET Core platform implementation) and a data-access package like Revo.EFCore (for Entity Framework Core support).
