xmolecules/nmolecules

nMolecules is a .NET library that provides a declarative, attribute-based approach to implementing Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and eventing patterns. It offers a set of C\# attributes to define architectural layers, domain model components, and domain events, enabling developers to express these abstractions directly in code. The system includes core packages for DDD, eventing, and architecture, along with compile-time verification to ensure correct usage of these annotations.

The library introduces three new attributes to support Domain-Driven Design eventing patterns: DomainEventAttribute marks classes, structs, or events as domain events; DomainEventHandlerAttribute identifies handlers for processing them; and DomainEventPublisherAttribute identifies components responsible for publishing events. These attributes provide a declarative way to mark domain model components, facilitating integration with eventing infrastructure.

src/nMolecules.Events · high confidence

The nMolecules library is introduced, providing .NET developers with a set of libraries to express architectural abstractions, specifically supporting Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and eventing concepts through annotations. The release includes the core nMolecules.DDD, nMolecules.Events, and nMolecules.Architecture packages, along with their corresponding test projects, all structured within a new solution file and configured with standard .editorconfig and .gitignore rules.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

Adds a new set of C\# attributes to support Domain-Driven Design patterns and layered architecture. This includes layer markers (Application, Domain, Infrastructure, UserInterface) and domain model markers (AggregateRoot, BoundedContext, Entity, Factory, Module, Repository, Service, ValueObject). The ValueObjectAttribute is explicitly configured to support enums and structs in addition to classes, and a new IdentityAttribute is introduced to mark fields or properties that constitute an entity's identity.

src/nMolecules.DDD · high confidence

Added new test files that verify the compilation and presence of architectural, DDD, and eventing attributes. These are compile-time checks rather than runtime assertions, ensuring that the relevant attributes are correctly applied to classes and members across the codebase.

tests · high confidence

The nMolecules library family is introduced with three core packages—nMolecules.Architecture, nMolecules.DDD, and nMolecules.Events—each configured for .NET Standard 1.0 and set to generate NuGet packages on build. Corresponding test projects for each module are added, targeting .NET 7.0 and utilizing xUnit, Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk, coverlet.collector, and NFluent as test dependencies.
