Setting up the project

[SanderDeclerck]

Before things can get started we need to set up a project. The structure of the project is based on the dotnet-architecture/eShopOnContainers repo.

The project is based on:

• .Net core
• Microservices
• Some DDD

Project structure

In the src folder, we will find:

• Base (containing shared base classes)
• Services (containing each of the microservices)
• Gateways (the public facing gateway - these services are the one's open to the internet)
• Clients (containing all client applications)

Project subdomains

The problem domain would initially exist out of 2 microservices:

Building configuration

This should be the main focus in the beginning. In this subdomain, everything starts with a building (eg: "my home"). A building will have some energy resources (electricity - water - gas). Each of the resources will have one or multiple energy meters with a tarif (day - night - 24hrs).

Structure

This project contains the following building blocks:

BuildingConfiguration.Domain

This is the most important part, the problem domain. It contains all logic and should have a high unit test coverage.

BuildingConfiguration.Infrastructure

Contains infrastructure services. The repositories, defined in the Domain project, are implemented here as well.

Consumption

This will be added later. The consumption service will take in readings from the user, and will be able to generate consumption reports.
