DDD4j Project Creator

When to use this skill

CRITICAL: This skill should ONLY be triggered when the user explicitly mentions creating a ddd4j project, initializing ddd4j project, or setting up ddd4j-boot project.

ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:

  • Creating a ddd4j project (explicitly mentions "ddd4j")
  • Initializing ddd4j-boot project
  • Setting up ddd4j project structure
  • Creating ddd4j project scaffolding
  • Create ddd4j project (explicitly mentions "ddd4j")
  • Initialize ddd4j project (initialize ddd4j project)
  • ddd4j-boot project creation (create ddd4j-boot project)

Trigger phrases include:

  • "Create ddd4j project" (create ddd4j project) - must include "ddd4j"
  • "Initialize ddd4j project" (initialize ddd4j project) - must include "ddd4j"
  • "Create ddd4j-boot project" (create ddd4j-boot project) - must include "ddd4j"
  • "Create project using ddd4j" (create project using ddd4j)
  • "ddd4j project scaffolding" (ddd4j project scaffolding)

DO NOT trigger this skill for:

  • Generic DDD projects without mentioning ddd4j
  • JPA/Hibernate projects
  • Other ORM frameworks
  • Generic project initialization without ddd4j context
  • "Create DDD project" without "ddd4j" (too generic)
  • "Initialize project" without "ddd4j" (too generic)

About DDD4j Boot

DDD4j Boot is a Java microservice development scaffold based on Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles. It is built with Spring Boot 3.5.x and uses lightweight ddd-4-java and cqrs-4-java libraries to implement Domain-Driven Design, Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS), and Event Sourcing.

Core Design Principles

  • Domain-Driven Design (DDD): Strategic design through bounded contexts, tactical design with entities, value objects, aggregates, domain services, repositories, and domain events
  • Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS): Separation of read and write models, independent optimization
  • Event Sourcing: State changes recorded as event sequences, supporting complete history and state reconstruction
  • Diamond Architecture (COLA): Adapter → Application → Domain ← Infrastructure four-layer architecture

Key Features

  • Complete DDD layered architecture supporting COLA V5 pattern
  • Lightweight DDD implementation based on ddd-4-java and cqrs-4-java
  • Technology stack integration: Spring Boot 3.5.x, MyBatis Plus, Jackson, Guava, Swagger, SaToken
  • Dual stack support: WebMVC (traditional Servlet) and WebFlux (reactive)
  • Domain model base capabilities: BaseEntity, BaseRepository, BaseService
  • Domain event support with built-in event publishing mechanism
  • Anti-Corruption Layer (ACL) for external service integration
  • Unified exception handling mechanism

Project Types Supported

1. Single-Module Monolith (single-module monolith)

Applicable scenarios: Small and medium-sized applications, a single business domain, team size 5-15 people

Features:

  • Single Maven module
  • All layers (interfaces, application, domain, infrastructure) are within the same module
  • Suitable for rapid development and deployment

2. Multi-Module Monolith (multi-module monolith)

Applicable scenarios: Medium and large-sized applications, multiple business domains, team size 15-50 people

Features:

  • Multiple Maven modules, divided by business domain
  • Each business domain contains the complete DDD four-layer architecture
  • Shared common module
  • Unified BOM and dependency management

3. Microservices (monolithic microservices)

Applicable scenarios: Large e-commerce platform, multiple business domains, team size 50+ people

Features:

  • Each service is deployed independently
  • Services communicate through RPC and message queues
  • Each service is internally organized according to the DDD four-layer architecture
  • Independent databases and configurations

How to use this skill

CRITICAL: This skill should ONLY be triggered when the user explicitly mentions creating a ddd4j project. Do NOT trigger for generic DDD project creation requests without ddd4j context.

For New DDD4j Project Creation

  1. Identify the project type from user requirements:

    • Single-module monolith → single-module
    • Multi-module monolith → multi-module
    • Microservices → microservices
  2. Load the appropriate example from the examples/ directory:

    • examples/single-module.md - Single-module monolith structure
    • examples/multi-module.md - Multi-module monolith structure
    • examples/microservices.md - Microservices structure
    • examples/architecture-patterns.md - DDD, Hexagonal, Clean, COLA V5 patterns
  3. Collect project information:

    • groupId: Maven group ID (e.g., com.github.hiwepy or io.ddd4j.base)
    • artifactId: Maven artifact ID (e.g., ddd4j-douyin or my-ddd4j-service)
    • version: Project version (e.g., 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT)
    • parentVersion: Parent POM version (e.g., 2023.0.x.20251205-SNAPSHOT or reference to ddd4j-boot-parent)
    • packageBase: Base package name (e.g., io.ddd4j.douyin or com.example.service)
    • modules: List of business modules (for multi-module/microservices)
    • architecture: Architecture pattern (DDD Classic, Hexagonal, Clean, COLA V5)
    • ddd4jBootVersion: DDD4j Boot version (if using ddd4j-boot-bom)
  4. Generate project structure:

    • Create directory structure based on selected type
    • Generate pom.xml files (parent and modules)
    • Create package-info.java files for each module
    • Generate .gitignore, LICENSE, mvnw, mvnw.cmd
    • Create basic directory structure with src/main/java and src/test/java
  5. Save to project directory:

    • Default location: Save directly to the command execution directory (same level as the command)
    • Directory creation: Automatically create the project directory structure if it doesn't exist
    • File naming: Use descriptive names based on project type and module names

For Existing Project Validation

  1. Analyze project structure:

    • Scan project directory for Maven modules
    • Identify layer structure (interfaces, application, domain, infrastructure)
    • Check package naming conventions
    • Verify directory organization
  2. Identify project type:

    • Single-module: Single pom.xml at root, all layers in one module
    • Multi-module: Parent pom.xml with multiple modules, each module has complete layers
    • Microservices: Multiple services, each with independent structure
  3. Validate against standards:

    • Check DDD layer compliance
    • Verify dependency direction (interfaces → application → domain ← infrastructure)
    • Validate package naming ({basePackage}.{module}.{layer})
    • Check for required directories (src/main/java, src/test/java)
    • Verify package-info.java files exist
  4. Generate validation report:

    • List identified issues
    • Provide recommendations
    • Suggest fixes for non-compliant structures

Output Format and File Saving

When generating a project structure, follow this response structure:

  1. Save the files first: Create the project structure directly in the command execution directory

    • The project will be created at the same level as where the command is executed
    • Generate all required files and directories (pom.xml, src/, etc.)
    • Use the artifactId as the project root directory name
  2. Inform the user: Tell them where the files were saved

  3. Display the structure: Show the generated directory structure in a code block

Example Response Structure:

  • First line: "I've created the DDD project structure and saved it to ./{artifactId}/ in the current directory."
  • Then show the structure wrapped in a code block:
    • Start with: three backticks + text + newline
    • Then the directory structure
    • End with: three backticks + newline

Critical Requirements:

  • Always save project files directly to the command execution directory (same level)
  • Use artifactId as the project root directory name
  • Create the directory structure automatically if it doesn't exist
  • Generate complete project structure with all required files
  • Follow Maven and DDD conventions strictly

Project Structure Standards

Package Naming Convention

For multi-module projects:

{basePackage}.{moduleName}.{layerName}

Examples:

  • io.ddd4j.douyin.api.domain - API module, domain layer
  • io.ddd4j.douyin.api.application - API module, application layer
  • io.ddd4j.douyin.api.interfaces - API module, interfaces layer
  • io.ddd4j.douyin.api.infrastructure - API module, infrastructure layer

Required Files

Every module must have:

  • pom.xml - Maven configuration
  • src/main/java/{package}/package-info.java - Package documentation
  • src/test/java/ - Test directory structure
  • .gitignore - Git ignore rules (at root)
  • LICENSE - License file (at root)
  • mvnw, mvnw.cmd - Maven wrapper (at root)

Layer Dependencies

Correct dependency direction:

interfaces → application → domain ← infrastructure

Rules:

  • Domain layer must not depend on any other layer
  • Infrastructure layer implements domain layer interfaces
  • Application layer depends on domain layer
  • Interfaces layer depends on application layer

Architecture Patterns

The skill supports four architecture patterns:

  1. DDD Classic Layered Architecture (DDD classic layered architecture)

    • Layers: interfaces, application, domain, infrastructure
    • Reference: docs/1、DDD 经典分层架构目录结构.md and examples/architecture-patterns.md#ddd-classic
  2. Hexagonal Architecture (hexagonal architecture)

    • Ports and Adapters pattern
    • Reference: docs/2、六边形架构详细目录结构参考.md and examples/architecture-patterns.md#hexagonal
  3. Clean Architecture (clean architecture)

    • Entities, Use Cases, Interface Adapters
    • Reference: docs/3、整洁架构详细目录结构参考.md and examples/architecture-patterns.md#clean
  4. COLA V5 (diamond architecture)

    • Adapter → App → Domain ← Infrastructure
    • Reference: docs/4、COLA V5 架构详细目录结构参考.md and examples/architecture-patterns.md#cola-v5

Validation Rules

When checking existing projects, validate:

  1. Structure Compliance:

    • ✓ Correct layer organization
    • ✓ Proper module separation
    • ✓ Package naming conventions
  2. Dependency Rules:

    • ✓ Domain layer has no external dependencies
    • ✓ Infrastructure implements domain interfaces
    • ✓ Correct dependency direction
  3. File Organization:

    • ✓ Required directories exist
    • ✓ package-info.java files present
    • ✓ Maven configuration correct
  4. Naming Conventions:

    • ✓ Package names follow convention
    • ✓ Module names are descriptive
    • ✓ Layer names are standard
