Over the last year or two, as many visitors to my blog and Twitter will know, I’ve been spending significant time and effort advocating approaches that allow a codebase and architecture to be “best fit” for its stage in the development lifecycle while being able to evolve as your product, systems and customers evolve. As…
Over the last 4 parts of this series we’ve taken a simple application built around a layered architecture and restructured it into an application based around dispatching queries and commands as state through a mediator. We’ve seen many of the advantages this can bring to a codebase reducing repetition and allowing for a clear decomposition…
Happy New Year everyone – I hope everyone had a great break and has a fantastic 2018. Much like last year I’d set some time aside over the Christmas break to tinker with something fairly left-field and somewhat experimental (algorithmic art) but unfortunately spent a lot of the break ill. This left me with a…
If you want to follow along with this series of posts the source code and be found here, the published game here and the source for this specific post here. If you read my blog or follow me on Twitter you’ll know I’ve really fallen in love with F# this last year and am using…
If you follow me on Twitter you’ll know I’ve been working on a first class F# interface for Function Monkey. I’d got to the point where it made sense to put together a nice little exemplar of how its used and I went looking for a simple, ideally declarative, validation framework. Something akin to Fluent…
I’ve been writing a lot of (production) F# since my last post on this topic and while I don’t consider myself an expert (by any means!) I’ve certainly become a lot more familiar with the language and have found myself falling into what Isaac Abraham refers to as “the pit of success”. It was hard…
Note: for those waiting for me to post more videos about Function Monkey they are on the way, I’m on a working / cycling holiday in Mallorca and don’t really have the setup to record decent audio. While I’m still a complete beginner with F# and very much in the heavy learning phase I thought…
I’ve just pushed out a new version of Function Monkey with one fairly minor but potentially important change – the ability to create functions without routes. You can now use the .HttpRoute() method without specifying an actual route. If you then also specify no path on the .HttpFunction<TCommand>() method that will result in an Azure…
An anti-pattern I’ve seen a lot over the last few years involves the registration of dependencies in an IoC container at the root of a project (or in a dedicated “IoC” project) – an approach enabled by making every single class in every assembly in the codebase public. It’s amazing how common it is and…
