README
Modern and opinionated PHP library designed to facilitate the integration of CQRS and Event Sourcing patterns in your application.
A demo application is available to see Backslash in action.
Version 2 of Backslash has been completely rewritten to align with Dynamic Consistency Boundary principles, as outlined by Sara Pellegrini in her Kill Aggregate blog series. Nevertheless, the traditional DDD approach of implementing Event Sourcing with aggregates is still possible.
Disclaimer
While Backslash has been used in production for many years at FNQLHSSC, it was tailored to meet the needs of a specific environment, and it may lack the robustness, flexibility, or polish expected in a widely-adopted, general-purpose library. This library is provided as-is, with no guarantees, warranties, or support.
If you are exploring CQRS or Event Sourcing, you may use Backlash as a learning resource to understand these concepts in practice.
Installation
Add Backslash to your project with Composer:
composer require backslashphp/backslash
