Quick start

To use DynamoDB with your Python eventsourcing applications:

• install the Python package eventsourcing_dynamodb
• set the environment variable PERSISTENCE_MODULE to 'eventsourcing_dynamodb'
• set the environment variable DYNAMO_ENDPOINT_URL to a DynamoDB endpoint URL
• set the environment variable DYNAMO_TABLE to a DynamoDB table

See below for more information.

Installation

Use pip to install the stable distribution from the Python Package Index. Please note, it is recommended to install Python packages into a Python virtual environment.

$ pip install eventsourcing_dynamodb

Getting started

Define aggregates and applications in the usual way.

from eventsourcing.application import Application
from eventsourcing.domain import Aggregate, event
from uuid import uuid5, NAMESPACE_URL


class TrainingSchool(Application):
    def register(self, name):
        dog = Dog(name)
        self.save(dog)

    def add_trick(self, name, trick):
        dog = self.repository.get(Dog.create_id(name))
        dog.add_trick(trick)
        self.save(dog)

    def get_tricks(self, name):
        dog = self.repository.get(Dog.create_id(name))
        return dog.tricks


class Dog(Aggregate):
    @event('Registered')
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
        self.tricks = []

    @staticmethod
    def create_id(name):
        return uuid5(NAMESPACE_URL, f'/dogs/{name}')

    @event('TrickAdded')
    def add_trick(self, trick):
        self.tricks.append(trick)

To use this module as the persistence module for your application, set the environment variable PERSISTENCE_MODULE to 'eventsourcing_dynamodb'.

When using this module, you need to set the environment variables DYNAMO_ENDPOINT_URL and DYNAMO_TABLE to a DynamoDB URL and table.

import os

os.environ['PERSISTENCE_MODULE'] = 'eventsourcing_dynamodb'
os.environ['DYNAMO_ENDPOINT_URL'] = 'http://localhost:8000'
os.environ['DYNAMO_TABLE'] = 'dynamo_events'

Construct and use the application in the usual way.

school = TrainingSchool()
school.register('Fido')
school.add_trick('Fido', 'roll over')
school.add_trick('Fido', 'play dead')
tricks = school.get_tricks('Fido')
assert tricks == ['roll over', 'play dead']
