How does a search functionality fit in DDD with CQRS?
- by Songo
In Vaughn Vernon's book Implementing domain driven design and the accompanying sample application I found that he implemented a CQRS approach to the iddd_collaboration bounded context.
He presents the following classes in the application service layer:
CalendarApplicationService.java
CalendarEntryApplicationService.java
CalendarEntryQueryService.java
CalendarQueryService.java
I'm interested to know if an application will have a search page that feature numerous drop downs and check boxes with a smart text box to match different search patterns; How will you structure all that search logic?
In a command service or a query service?
Taking a look at the CalendarQueryService.java I can see that it has 2 methods for a huge query, but no logic at all to mix and match any search filters for example.
I've heard that the application layer shouldn't have any business logic, so where will I construct my dynamic query? or maybe just clutter everything in the Query service?
