This project is an implementation of CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation), Event sourcing, Unit of Work, Repository patterns, and GraphQL using .NET Core.
The GraphQLWithHotChocolate project aims to showcase the integration of various architectural patterns and technologies within a .NET Core application. By leveraging CQRS, Event sourcing, Unit of Work, Repository patterns, and GraphQL, the project provides a robust and flexible foundation for building scalable and maintainable applications.
The project includes the following features:
-
CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation): The CQRS pattern is implemented to separate read and write operations, allowing for more efficient query handling and scalability.
-
Event sourcing: Event sourcing is utilized to capture and store all changes to the application's state as a sequence of events. This approach enables easy replaying of events and auditability of system behavior.
-
Unit of Work: The Unit of Work pattern is employed to manage transactional operations and ensure consistency when interacting with the data layer.
-
Repository patterns: Repositories are used to abstract the data access layer and provide a consistent interface for querying and persisting data.
-
GraphQL: The project integrates GraphQL using the Hot Chocolate library, which offers a powerful and flexible approach to querying and manipulating data. GraphQL enables clients to request specific data structures, reducing over-fetching and under-fetching issues commonly associated with REST APIs.
To get started with the GraphQLWithHotChocolate project, follow these steps:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/GraphQLWithHotChocolate.git- Navigate to the project directory:
cd GraphQLWithHotChocolate- Build the project using the .NET CLI:
dotnet build- Run the application:
dotnet run --project .\Api- Open your preferred web browser and access the GraphQL endpoint:
http://localhost:5066/graphql
Please note that the application is also listening on the following HTTPS port:
https://localhost:7066
The project's configuration can be customized through the following settings:
appsettings.json: Contains general application settings such as the database connection string, logging configuration, and other environment-specific configurations.
