/*

* What Are Traits?

*

* Traits are based on the Interface Segregation Principle (ISP)

* which is the notion that 'many client specific interfaces are

* better than one general purpose interface.' As Uncle Bob puts

* it, "Make fine grained interfaces that are client specific"

* or don't force clients to implement interfaces they don’t use.

*

* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_segregation_principle

* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_(object-oriented_design)

*

* Traits are those segregated interfaces which expose a subset

* of what RepositoryBase and its inheritors offer. Traits map to

* repository operations. For example, ICanAdd trait is an interface

* with exposes the repository Add methods. Other examples include

* ICanUpdate and ICanDelete.

*

* Note, this implementation was inspired by Richard Dingwall's article,

* "IRepository: one size does not fit all"

* http://richarddingwall.name/2009/01/19/irepositoryt-one-size-does-not-fit-all/

*

* Why Should I Use Traits?

*

* By default, the repository exposes all CRUD operations through

* public methods. That's convenient but it might not play nicely

* with your business rules and thus the repository API you wish to

* code against. Let's say your business spec states that Orders can

* never be changed once issued. If you code directly against

* InMemoryRepository<Order, int> you'll have access to operations

* like Add(), Get(), Update() and Delete(). If you wish to reduce

* your OrderRepository API to a subset of methods -- just Add() and

* Get() -- you'll need to leverage traits and you need to start coding

* against an IOrderRepository interface rather than the implementation

* itself.

*

* How Do I Use Traits?

*

* Let's work through an example using the OrderRepository called

* out above.

*

* First, define the Order.

*/

public class Order

{

public int OrderId{ get; set; }

public string Name { get; set; }

}

/*

* Next, define a custom IOrderRepository which limits the Order

* repository to Add and Get operations.

*/

private interface IOrderRepository : ICanAdd<Order>, ICanGet<Order, int> {}

/*

* Finally, create a concrete implementation of the OrderRepository.

*/

private class OrderRepository : InMemoryRepository<Order, int>, IOrderRepository {}

/*

* That's it. Check out the examples below.

*

* In the first test, you'll see that IOrderRepository has been

* reduced to only the Add and Get operations.

*/

[Test]

public void IOrderRepository_Can_Only_Add_And_Get()

{

IOrderRepository repo = new OrderRepository();

repo.Add(new Order{Name = "Big Sale"});

var result = repo.GetAll();

result.Count().ShouldEqual(1);

}

/*

* But be sure to code against the IOrderRepository rather

* than OrderRepository directly. Otherwise, additional operations

* like Delete() are still availabe.

*/

[Test]

public void OrderRepository_Can_Do_More_Than_Add_And_Get()

{

var order = new Order {Name = "Big Sale"};

var repo = new OrderRepository();

repo.Add(order);

order.OrderId.ShouldEqual(1);

repo.GetAll().Count().ShouldEqual(1);

repo.Delete(order);

repo.GetAll().Count().ShouldEqual(0);

}

}
