The example project Career consists of two parts. The first part is about a single person and his jobs. The second part is deals with a non-singleton entity Course.
Person aggregate
The aggregate Person consists of the entities Person and Job, but the definition only contains Person. Aggregate functionality automatically creates, reads, updates and deletes all entities that are connected to the entitiy that is defined in the aggregate definition.
An exposed flow PersonManagement is available to manage person aggregates. As mentioned before, a person aggregate consists of a single person, with zero or more jobs attached to it.
Version management is enabled in the create, update and delete service so multiple version of an aggregate are available, as shown in the aggregate list below.
Shown is one aggregate about Tom Barman who - at first - has one job. In version 1 his name was misspelled, so this was corrected in version 2. At one point, Tom had another job, this is effectuated in version 3, the current version of the aggregate.
As can be seen in the example project, custom metadata fields can be definied for an aggregate. In the person example, the custom metadata fields FullName, Age and NrOfJobs have been added to the person aggregate. The first is a concatenation of two existing attributes, the second is a plain attribute and the third custom metadata field is a calculation of the jobs attached to the person entity.
Course aggregate
The course aggregate only consist of the entity Course, which is a non-singleton. This means that it is possible to save more than one course in such an aggregate. An exposed flow CourseManagement is available to manage course aggregates, as shown below.
A course has a duration in number of days and a price in euros. Custom metadata fields have been defined within the course aggregate to summerize the number of days and the prize and count the number of courses for each course aggregate. Version has been disabled in this part of the example, so only the latest version of each aggregate is available.
