Writing Applications With a Fluent API

[maneyogesh]

It’s called as functional programming. If I am not mistaken the concept is called railway oriented programming

Milan, we had someone write code this way and it was a pain in the back to debug - can you explain the best practices to write such method chains ?

I watched Yesterday - my co workers would SCREAM at this but I like it and I've seen past videos but wary about fully immersing myself into this. This is "validation" but compared to "builder pattern" with a fluent api it feels like the same concept. Builder pattern would need to throw an exception I guess is less efficient. You did a video on fluent api builder so curious on your thoughts as that can be constrained by interfaces to lead to the 1 next step.

I haven't used fluent api yet.. but just lookinf at the code, it seems unreadable (that's a subjective matter though) and hard to debug.

good example to demo the fluent api and result pattern, but in the real world, you need to consider more about transactions, sagas, sync vs. async etc.

Seems Rust like, not sure if it’s a good fit but it sure interests me.

[gencaysayin]

Can you explain this more detailed in a video. I did not understand exactly how it works.

[queenstownswords]

This approach has multiple points of failure. I would suspect you would run into timeouts and other performance issues. Also, would you want to log on each step in that chain?

Now my mind is thinking how to make a Match function like that, with as argument different anonymous functions that execute dependant on the match. I feel this is a stupid idea

[vijayarajan-btfk]

(.bind, .match, .trycatch, .tap ) what are this kind of handlers .it's Dotnet things.😢😢😢

[sanglin]

please dont do code like this . a wrapper transaction id should be in submit order, update inventory, update work order if exist.
