This is a microservice framework based on eventsourcing ideas.
Kafka is used by microservices to exchange messages and store application state changes.
Protocol buffers are used to serialize messages (c4proto-*):
- supports subset of protocol buffers
- supports BigDecimal in messages and is extensible to support custom classes
- messages are described by annotations on case classes
- uses small wire-runtime
- uses scalameta to generate protocol buffer adapters
Includes gate-microservice (c4gate-*) that:
- serves all external requests, so other microservices can be freely moved
- forward POST-s to Kafka topic
- serves GET requests and raw TCP connections by content published to Kafka topic
Application state changes are consumed to in-memory immutable object graph (read model) (c4actor-*).
- Changes are propogated through the graph according to dependency rules.
- Propogation forms data structures optimized for different "requests".
