Domain Events

Implements domain events as a tactical DDD pattern for decoupled communication between aggregates, bounded contexts, and application services. Produces immutable past-tense event definitions, typed event registries, in-process dispatchers with error handling strategies, and idempotent handlers that safely process duplicate deliveries without side effects.

TL;DR Checklist

• Define events as frozen dataclasses with NounVerbPastTense naming (e.g., OrderCreated, not OrderCreate)
• Include required metadata on every event: occurred_at, aggregate_id, and optionally correlation_id / causation_id
• Publish events AFTER mutating state — never before, never in a separate pre-flight check
• Ensure the publisher has zero knowledge of who subscribes to its events (Open/Closed Principle)
• Make every event handler idempotent: processing the same event twice must yield the same observable result
• Decide error strategy upfront — fail-fast (rollback everything) or continue (log and compensate later)
• Use the Outbox pattern for cross-context events to guarantee delivery

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• An aggregate needs to notify other parts of the system about a state change without creating a direct dependency
• Multiple bounded contexts need to react to the same domain fact (e.g., OrderCreated triggers inventory reservation, notification sending, and analytics tracking)
• You are decoupling application services from domain model internals so that new handlers can be added without modifying existing code
• Building an event-driven architecture within a single bounded context using in-process event buses
• Implementing CQRS or Event Sourcing where events are the authoritative source of truth

When NOT to Use

Avoid this skill for:

• Simple CRUD operations with no downstream reactions — the overhead of event infrastructure is not justified when one service handles everything
• Synchronous, real-time communication requirements where the caller must wait for all side effects to complete before returning (use direct method calls or RPC instead)
• Cross-service communication that requires guaranteed delivery over network boundaries without the Outbox pattern — use a proper message broker (RabbitMQ, Kafka) with persistence guarantees
• Event naming where the past-tense convention does not apply — if you cannot describe what happened as a completed fact, it is not a domain event

Core Workflow

1. Define the Domain Event — Create an immutable frozen dataclass named in NounVerbPastTense (e.g., ItemAdded, OrderCancelled). Include all data needed by downstream handlers so they never have to query the aggregate. Add standard metadata (occurred_at, aggregate_id). Checkpoint: Every event field must be necessary for at least one handler — if no handler uses it, remove it to keep the event lean.

2. Register Events with the Dispatcher — Build a registry that maps each event type (by class name) to a list of registered handlers. The dispatcher owns this mapping; aggregates and application services never maintain their own subscriptions. Checkpoint: After registration, verify that dispatcher.get_handlers(OrderCreated) returns exactly the expected handler functions or methods.

3. Publish Events After State Mutation — When an aggregate or domain service changes state, call the event publisher with the newly created event object. The publisher routes it to all registered handlers synchronously (in-process) or enqueues it (cross-context). Checkpoint: If publishing raises an unhandled exception, the aggregate's state mutation has already happened — decide whether this is acceptable for your error strategy.

4. Execute Handlers with the Chosen Error Strategy — Determine at dispatcher construction time: should a handler failure roll back all other handlers' work (fail-fast), or should it log the error and continue dispatching remaining handlers (continue-and-compensate)? Apply this consistently across all event types. Checkpoint: For fail-fast mode, verify that state changes made by earlier handlers are rolled back (via transactions or compensating actions) before re-raising the original exception.

5. Ensure Idempotency on All Handlers — Every handler must safely handle receiving the same event more than once. Use the event's correlation_id as an idempotency key, store processed IDs in a deduplication store (in-memory set for tests, Redis/SQL for production), and skip duplicate processing without errors. Checkpoint: Process the identical event object through the handler twice — the second invocation must produce no additional side effects.

Implementation Patterns / Reference Guide

Pattern 1: Event Definition and Registry

Domain events are immutable records of facts that happened in the past. They carry all the contextual data downstream handlers need so those handlers never have to reach back into the aggregate for information. Naming follows NounVerbPastTense (e.g., OrderCreated, PaymentReceived, ItemRemoved) to make clear these describe completed events, not pending actions.

Every event inherits from a base DomainEvent that standardizes metadata: occurred_at timestamp, aggregate_id identifying the originating aggregate root, and optional correlation_id (shared across a business transaction spanning multiple aggregates) and causation_id (ID of the command or prior event that triggered this one).

Pattern 2: Event Publisher / Dispatcher

The dispatcher is the sole mediator between event publishers and handlers. Publishers (aggregates or domain services) call publish(event) without knowing who handles the event. Handlers are decoupled because they know nothing about what triggered their event — they only react to facts that happened.

Two dispatch strategies exist: in-process (all handlers run synchronously in the same thread, same transaction boundary) and cross-context (events are persisted via the Outbox pattern and consumed asynchronously by other bounded contexts). The dispatcher supports both by accepting an error-handling strategy at construction time.

Error handling is the critical decision point:

• Fail-fast: A handler exception rolls back all work — earlier handlers' side effects must be undone, typically via a database transaction rollback. This guarantees consistency but loses partial progress.
• Continue-and-compensate: Failed handlers are logged; remaining handlers still execute. Compensation happens asynchronously (e.g., sending a recovery notification). This maximizes throughput but requires explicit compensating actions for failed work.

Pattern 3: Idempotent Event Handler with Deduplication

Domain events can be delivered more than once due to network retries, crash recovery during asynchronous processing, or duplicate outbox entries. Every handler MUST be idempotent — the same event processed twice must produce exactly the same observable result as being processed once. This is achieved through an idempotency key (typically the correlation_id) and a deduplication store that tracks which events have already been processed.

For in-process handlers, a simple set of seen IDs suffices. For cross-context / outbox consumers, use Redis with TTL or a SQL table with unique constraints on the correlation ID. The handler checks the deduplication store before processing; if the event is already present, it returns immediately without performing any side effects.

import logging

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)


class IdempotencyStore:
    """Tracks processed event correlation IDs to prevent duplicate handling.

Pattern 4: Cross-Context Events with Outbox Pattern

When events must cross bounded context boundaries, in-process dispatching is insufficient because other contexts may be running as separate services. The Outbox pattern guarantees delivery by persisting events atomically with the domain state change within a single database transaction. An outbox consumer (separate process or background job) reads un-sent outbox rows and publishes them to a message broker or API endpoint.

    payload = {k: v for k, v in event.__dict__.items() if k != "occurred_at" and k != "aggregate_id"}

Constraints

MUST DO

• Name every event in NounVerbPastTense — OrderCreated, ItemRemoved, PaymentReceived. These are facts about what already happened, not instructions for what should happen. Past-tense naming prevents confusion between events and commands.
• Make all event dataclasses frozen — use @dataclass(frozen=True) to enforce immutability at the type level. Events represent historical facts; mutating them after creation corrupts audit trails and makes debugging impossible.
• Include standard metadata on every event — occurred_at (UTC timestamp), aggregate_id, and optionally correlation_id and causation_id. These fields enable event tracing, ordering, and deduplication across the entire system.
• Publish events AFTER state mutation — always mutate aggregate state first, then call publish(event). If publishing fails, the state change has already happened — handle this via compensation or transaction rollback. Never publish before mutating (you would create phantom events).
• Keep handlers idempotent — every handler must safely process the same event twice without producing duplicate side effects. Use the event's correlation_id as an idempotency key and track processed IDs in a deduplication store.
• Decide error strategy at dispatcher construction time — choose FAIL_FAST (rollback everything) or CONTINUE_AND_COMPENSATE (log and proceed) once, then apply it consistently across all event types. Document the decision.

MUST NOT DO

• Let aggregates manage their own subscriptions — aggregates should never maintain lists of subscribers or call handlers directly. The dispatcher owns the registry; aggregates only call publish(). This enforces the Open/Closed Principle: you can add new handlers without modifying existing aggregate code.
• Put business logic inside event handlers that duplicates aggregate invariants — if a handler checks "does this order have items?" that check belongs in the aggregate's constructor or methods. Handlers should react to facts, not re-validate the aggregate's internal state.
• Use domain events for synchronous inter-method communication within the same aggregate — if method A needs data from method B, call B directly. Events are for cross-boundary communication, not for organizing code flow within a single aggregate's lifecycle.
• Omit correlation_id when events span multiple aggregates in one business transaction — if OrderCreated triggers InventoryReserved which triggers NotificationSent, all three events should share the same correlation_id to enable tracing and debugging.
• Allow handlers to modify the event object — events are immutable frozen dataclasses. Handlers that need to transform event data should create new objects rather than mutating the event in place. Mutation breaks idempotency guarantees.

Output Template

When applying this skill, produce:

1. Event Definitions — Frozen dataclasses for each domain event with NounVerbPastTense naming, carrying all necessary contextual data plus standard metadata (occurred_at, aggregate_id, correlation_id/causation_id when applicable).

2. Event Registry + Dispatcher — An EventRegistry that maps event type names to handler lists, paired with an EventDispatcher that routes events to handlers using the chosen error strategy (FAIL_FAST or CONTINUE_AND_COMPENSATE).

3. Idempotency Wrappers — Handlers wrapped with deduplication logic using correlation_id as the idempotency key. Include an in-memory IdempotencyStore for in-process use and note the production replacement (Redis/SQL).

4. Cross-Context Support — If events cross bounded context boundaries, include the Outbox pattern: an OutboxMessage dataclass and a persistence function that stores events atomically with domain state changes.

All code must use Python 3.10+ type hints, docstrings on every public method, and follow SOLID principles — specifically Open/Closed (new handlers require no publisher changes) and Single Responsibility (publishers publish, handlers react).
