Read Model / Projection Generator

Creates Read Model infrastructure for CQRS read side with optimized query models.

When to Use

Component Characteristics

Read Model

• •Optimized for queries
• •Denormalized data
• •Eventually consistent
• •No business logic

Projection

• •Builds read models from events
• •Handles event streams
• •Maintains synchronization
• •Idempotent processing

Repository

• •Query-focused methods
• •Returns read models
• •No write operations

Generation Process

Step 1: Generate Domain Read Model

Path: src/Domain/{BoundedContext}/ReadModel/

1. •{Name}ReadModel.php — Immutable read model with fromArray/toArray
2. •{Name}ReadModelRepositoryInterface.php — Query-focused repository interface

Step 2: Generate Application Projection

Path: src/Application/{BoundedContext}/Projection/

1. •{Name}ProjectionInterface.php — Projection contract
2. •{Name}Projection.php — Event handlers building read model

Step 3: Generate Infrastructure

Path: src/Infrastructure/{BoundedContext}/

1. •Projection/{Name}Store.php — Store for insert/update/upsert
2. •ReadModel/Doctrine{Name}Repository.php — Repository implementation

Step 4: Generate Tests

1. •{Name}ReadModelTest.php — Read model serialization tests
2. •{Name}ProjectionTest.php — Projection event handling tests

Naming Conventions

Quick Template Reference

Read Model

final readonly class {Name}ReadModel
{
    public function __construct(
        public string $id,
        // ... denormalized properties
        public \DateTimeImmutable $createdAt,
        public \DateTimeImmutable $updatedAt
    ) {}

    public static function fromArray(array $data): self;
    public function toArray(): array;
}

Projection

final class {Name}Projection implements {Name}ProjectionInterface
{
    public function project(DomainEventInterface $event): void
    {
        match ($event::class) {
            OrderCreated::class => $this->whenOrderCreated($event),
            OrderShipped::class => $this->whenOrderShipped($event),
            default => null,
        };
    }

    public function reset(): void;
    public function subscribedEvents(): array;
}

Usage Example

// Query read model
$orders = $orderSummaryRepository->findByCustomerId($customerId);

// Project event
$projection->project($orderCreatedEvent);

// Reset projection for rebuild
$projection->reset();

Database Schema

CREATE TABLE order_summaries (
    id VARCHAR(36) PRIMARY KEY,
    order_number VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
    customer_id VARCHAR(36) NOT NULL,
    customer_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    status VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    total_cents BIGINT NOT NULL,
    created_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
    updated_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,

    INDEX idx_customer (customer_id),
    INDEX idx_status (status)
);
