Does it belong in the application or domain layer? — Matthias Noback - Blog

Where should it go? If you’re one of those people who make a separation between an application and a domain layer in their code base (like I do), then a question you’ll often have is: does this service go in the application or in the domain layer? It sometimes makes you wonder if the distinction between these layers is superficial after all. I’m not going to write again about what the layers mean, but here is how I decide if a service goes into Application or Domain:

Talk review: Thomas Pierrain at DDD Africa — Matthias Noback - Blog

As a rather unusual pastime for the Saturday night I attended the third Domain-Driven Design Africa online meetup. Thomas Pierrain a.k.a. use case driven spoke about his adaptation of Hexagonal architecture. “It’s not by the book,” as he said, but it solves a lot of the issues he encountered over the years. I’ll try to summarize his approach here, but I recommend watching the full talk as well. Hexagonal architecture Hexagonal architecture makes a distinction between the use cases of an application, and how they are connected to their surrounding infrastructure. Domain logic is represented by pure code (in the FP sense of the word), surrounded by a set of adapters that expose the use cases of the application to actual users and connect the application to databases, messages queues, and so on.

Successful refactoring projects - Prepare to stop at any time — Matthias No

Refactoring projects A common case of refactoring-gone-wrong is when refactoring becomes a large project in a branch that can never be merged because the refactoring project is never completed. The refactoring project is considered a separate project, and soon starts to feel like “The Big Rewrite That Always Fails” from programming literature. The work happens in a branch because people actually fear the change. They want to see it before they believe it, and review every single part of it before it can be merged. This process may take months. Meanwhile, other developers keep making changes to the main branch, so merging the refactoring branch is going to be a very tedious, if not dangerous thing to do. A task that, on its own, can cause the failure of the refactoring project itself.

Should we use a framework? — Matthias Noback - Blog

Since I’ve been writing a lot about decoupled application development it made sense that one of my readers asked the following question: “Why should we use a framework?” The quick answer is: because you need it. A summary of the reasons: It would be too much work to replace all the work that the framework does for you with code written by yourself. Software development is too costly for this. Framework maintainers have fixed many issues before you even encountered them. They have done everything to make the code secure, and when a new security issue pops up, they fix it so you can just pull the latest version of the framework. By not using a framework you will be decoupled from Symfony, Laravel, etc. but you will be coupled to Your Own Framework, which is a bigger problem since you’re the maintainer and it’s likely that you won’t actually maintain it (in my experience, this is what often happens to projects that use their own home-grown framework). So, yes, you/we need a framework. At the same time you may want to write framework-decoupled code whenever possible.

The great SameSite confusion

In this post, I dissect a common misconception about the SameSite cookie attribute and I explore its potential impact on Web security. TL;DR ¶ The SameSite cookie attribute is not well understood. Conflating site and origin is a common but harmful mistake. The concept of site is more difficult to apprehend than meets the eye. Some requests are cross-origin but same-site. SameSite only has effects on cross-site requests. SameSite paints a target on your subdomains’ back. Misguided practitioners may unduly eschew SameSite=Strict. The advent of SameSite ¶ You undoubtedly have heard of the SameSite cookie attribute. It made headlines when, in February 2020, Chrome started rolling out changes to SameSite’s default behaviour. Intended as a defence-in-depth mechanism against cross-site attacks, such as cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and cross-site script inclusion (XSSI), SameSite had been lying dormant at the heart of implementing browsers since its inception in 2016.

Testing Spaghetti - Nomad PHP

Presented by Gemma Anible @ellotheth Presented on October 23, 2014 The nightmare is at your doorstep! You’ve been tasked with extending a legacy PHP web application, a mash of raw SQL and HTML and PHP all inside out and backwards and spread over a several dozen (or hundred!) files. You know getting the system under test will push the project forward, but where do you start? Come learn a slow, careful approach to incorporating automated unit tests into untestable code. See how your tests can slip in unobtrusively to take over your codebase from the inside, eating away at the spaghetti and creating a solid platform for future development. Meet Gemma Anible Gemma is a software engineer, video gamer and recovering classical violinist who has been developing PHP web applications since before PHP5 (and applications in C, .NET and Delphi since before then). She is passionate about using pragmatic processes and tooling to support developers of all types and skillsets, and her level of excitement over learning new dev technology tends to correlate strongly with her level of caffeination. Gemma and her husband live with their two dogs in New Mexico, where they climb volcanoes for fun.
