Classes

The Product Domain Machc Library provides the foundational entities and interactors to handle product-related functionality in the e-commerce business domain. This library is designed to power scalable, maintainable, and modular solutions for managing product data, enabling developers to implement robust e-commerce applications.

Key Components

Entities

Entities in the Product Domain represent the core data and business rules for products, ensuring consistency and scalability. These entities include:

  1. ProductId
  2. Uniquely identifies a product using UUID or string-based keys.
  3. Ensures consistent reference and modular integration across systems.

  4. AbstractProduct

  5. Represents a generic product with attributes such as name, description, brand, image, and associated categories.
  6. Supports variants and offers flexibility for different product classifications.

  7. DynamicProduct

  8. Extends AbstractProduct by allowing runtime-customizable attributes using dynamic key-value pairs.
  9. Useful for scenarios where products require attributes that are not part of the core data model.

  10. VariantId

  11. Uniquely identifies variants of a product, enabling modular management of product variations (e.g., size, color).

  12. AbstractVariant

  13. Represents product variants with attributes like sku, description, and imageURL.
  14. Ensures variants are tied back to their parent product.

  15. DynamicVariant

  16. Extends AbstractVariant by adding runtime-configurable attributes using dynamic key-value pairs.
  17. Provides flexibility for unique or customizable product variants.

  18. CategoryId

  19. Represents product categories, ensuring that products are organized and categorized accurately.

Interactors

Interactors in the Product Domain library implement the use cases for managing product-related business requirements. These ensure that rules and workflows related to catalog management, dynamic data, and integrations are handled effectively.

  1. ProductCatalogInteractor
  2. Manages product catalog operations, such as listing products, filtering by categories, and searching based on attributes.

  3. ProductVariantInteractor

  4. Handles workflows for managing and associating product variants with their parent products.

  5. DynamicProductInteractor

  6. Provides flexibility to work with dynamic attributes for products and variants:

    • Adding or removing attributes.
    • Validating dynamic properties.
    • Mapping dynamic attributes into external systems.
  7. CategoryInteractor

  8. Manages product categories, enabling workflows such as adding a product to a category or retrieving products by category.

Clean Architecture Alignment

The Product Domain Machc Library is built using Clean Architecture principles to ensure: - Separation of Concerns: Entities capture high-level business rules, while interactors encapsulate use case-specific logic. - Reusability: Modular components can be reused across multiple applications or systems. - Scalability: Accommodates the growth of product catalogs, categories, and variants with minimal coupling. - Maintainability: Components are independently testable, ensuring long-term maintainability.

Use Cases

The Product Domain Library supports a wide range of product-related e-commerce use cases: - Managing product catalogs with scalability and flexibility. - Associating products with dynamic categories and attributes. - Allowing runtime customization for products and variants using dynamic key-value attributes. - Validating and filtering products for search engines or external marketplace integrations.

By using the Product Domain Machc Library, developers can confidently build and extend product-related functionalities for their e-commerce systems while maintaining modularity, flexibility, and Clean Architecture principles.
