CQELight is an entreprise grade extensible and customisable framework for creating softwares with DDD, Command Query & Event Sourcing.

DDD, CQRS and Event-sourcing are great topics, but it's not always easy to get started with them. Here's where CQELight is.

CQELight allows you to do clean loosely coupled architecture for your software developpments. Like this, you won't have to worry about technical stuff, just focus on business stuff and rely on CQELight system to help you build and run your system.

Based on Domain Driven Design, you can create your objects within boundaries, as aggregates, entities or value objects. With this clean object architecture, you can perform simple, flexible and extensible CQRS operations for interact with the system.

Moreover, CQELight bundle a bunch of tools used in all entreprise-grade projects such as IoC or Data Access Layer, among other things.

Available packages :

Extension name	Stable

To get really quick started, create a new console application

dotnet new console

Edit your csproj to use latest C# version

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp2.1</TargetFramework>
    <LangVersion>latest</LangVersion>
  </PropertyGroup>

</Project>

Add CQELight & CQELight.Buses.InMemory packages

dotnet add package CQELight | dotnet add package CQELight.Buses.InMemory

Create a new class GreetingsEvent.cs and add the following content

using CQELight.Abstractions.Events;
namespace HelloWorld.Events
{
    class GreetingsEvent : BaseDomainEvent
    {
    }
}

Create a new class GreetingsEventHandler.cs and add the following content

using CQELight.Abstractions.Events.Interfaces;
using CQELight.Abstractions.DDD;
using HelloWorld.Events;
using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace HelloWorld.Handlers
{
    class GreetingsEventHandler : IDomainEventHandler<GreetingsEvent>
    {
        public Task<Result> HandleAsync(GreetingsEvent domainEvent, IEventContext context = null)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Hello world!");
            return Result.Ok();
        }
    }
}

Modify Program.cs as following

using CQELight;
using CQELight.Dispatcher;
using HelloWorld.Events;
using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace HelloWorld
{
    class Program
    {
        static async Task Main(string[] args)
        {
            new Bootstrapper()
                .UseInMemoryEventBus()
                .Bootstrapp();

            await CoreDispatcher.PublishEventAsync(new GreetingsEvent()).ConfigureAwait(false);

            Console.Read();
        }
    }
}

Then, execute dotnet run, Hello World! should be visible on console
