Domain-Driven Design - Aggregate Roots in TypeScript
![](https://blog.jmorbegoso.com/img/software-architecture-logo.webp)
Before you look at the Aggregate Roots example in TypeScript, you can see at my post on what Aggregate Roots are in Domain-Driven Design.
Aggregate Root base class in TypeScript
abstract class AggregateRoot extends Entity {
private readonly _domainEvents: DomainEvent[] = [];
protected constructor(id: UniqueId) {
super(id);
}
get domainEvents(): DomainEvent[] {
return Object.assign([], this._domainEvents);
}
public addDomainEvent(domainEvent: DomainEvent): void {
this._domainEvents.push(domainEvent);
}
public clearDomainEvents(): void {
this._domainEvents.splice(0, this._domainEvents.length);
}
}
About this code snippet:
- It is an
abstract
class: This prevents this class from being instantiated and allows to declare abstract methods.
