defmodule Commanded.Commands.Handler do
@moduledoc """
Defines the behaviour a command handler module must implement to support command dispatch.
## Example
An open account handler that delegates to a bank account aggregate:
defmodule OpenAccountHandler do
@behaviour Commanded.Commands.Handler
def handle(%BankAccount{} = aggregate, %OpenAccount{} = command) do
%OpenAccount{account_number: account_number, initial_balance: initial_balance} = command
BankAccount.open_account(aggregate, account_number, initial_balance)
end
end
"""
@type aggregate :: struct()
@type command :: struct()
@type domain_event :: struct
@type reason :: any()
@doc """
Apply the given command to the event sourced aggregate.
You must return a single domain event, a list containing the pending events,
or `nil`, `[]`, or `:ok` when no events are produced.
You should return `{:error, reason}` on failure.
