A .net core Micro service Template using DDD

I was reading an article on Domain Driven Design (DDD) in a micro-service application which contained good example code that I wanted to use for one of my own projects. As I started creating the projects setup I thought; I don’t want to repeat this for every micro service I create, this should be a template. So I created one that you are free to use.

Targets: C#, .net core 3.1

Installation & Usage

Installation

Download the template file, open up your favourite shell and we are ready to install

template files

You can download a zip file or a nuget package. If you go with the zip file, unzip it in a location where you want to keep your templates.

In your shell:

To list all installed templates

$ dotnet new --list

To install the tempalte:

$ dotnet new -i ./microservice

Usage

$ dotnet new micro -n FooBar

The template “Microservice domain driven design template using mediatr” was created successfully.

$ cd FooBar/ && ls
FooBar.API/ FooBar.Domain/ FooBar.Infrastructure/ FooBar.UnitTest/

if you want to add a new solution file:

$ dotnet new sln
The template "Solution File" was created successfully.

$ ls
FooBar.API/ FooBar.Domain/ FooBar.Infrastructure/ FooBar.sln FooBar.UnitTest/

Add all project to a solution

$ for d in *; do dotnet sln add $d; done
Project `FooBar.API\FooBar.API.csproj` added to the solution.
Project `FooBar.Domain\FooBar.Domain.csproj` added to the solution.
Project `FooBar.Infrastructure\FooBar.Infrastructure.csproj` added to the solution.
