say you have a model with two attributes profile_image_url: str and profile_image: bytes
it's expensive to fetch profile_image since it will involve a http call to profile_image_url. right now, i would resolve this by using the @property decorator
this library offers an alternative method for populating profile_image by explicitly giving the user a hook for when they want to resolve this dependency. they might want to do it before access time, they might want to batch requests to this external profile_image service to reduce roundtrip latency
this pattern has potential to become more powerful if we only have user_id in context initially. we might want to fetch the product_image_url from the database then fetch the actual product_image after. this dependency graph might be simplified/optimized using this tool
the repo provides its own concrete example of this form with batch_person_age_loader
- navbaker 3y agoThanks!
- Gimpei 3y agoI too was confused. If the authors are reading this, the readme could do with a little bit more of an intro.
- tangkikodo 3y agomy fault lol. here is a step by step tutorial, building various kinds of views data you need, and keep service layer simple and clear at the same time. https://github.com/allmonday/composition-oriented-development-pattern https://github.com/allmonday/composition-oriented-developmen... code is ready, documents of english version is still wip.
- codetrotter 3y agoThat sounds pretty useful. Anyone know of a library to do the same in Rust?
