Event Sourcing

Krackend.EventSourcing provides a modular write-model runtime for event sourcing:

• event and state schema versioning
• expected-version appends
• paged stream reads
• state rehydration with reducers
• snapshots of state
• EF Core event store adapter
• raw JSON event appends for centralized event stores
• runtime diagnostics
• Roslyn analyzers
• testing helpers

Minimal setup:

services.AddKrackendEventSourcing(options =>
{
    options.ScanAssemblyContaining<Program>();
    options.Stores.Add("customers", store => store.TableName = "CustomerEvents");
});

services.AddEventSourcedInitialStateFactory<CustomerState, CustomerInitialStateFactory>();
services.AddKrackendEntityFrameworkEventStore<AppDbContext>();

Usage:

[EventStream("customers")]
public sealed record RenameCustomer(string CustomerId, string Name)
    : IEventStreamCommand
{
    public string StreamId => CustomerId;
}

await customerService.ExecuteAsync(new RenameCustomer("customer-001", "New Name"));

Centralized raw event store usage:

var rawEventStore = provider.GetRequiredService<IRawEventStore>();

await rawEventStore.AppendRawAsync(
    streamName: "integration-events",
    streamId: "customers:customer-001",
    expectedVersion: ExpectedVersion.Any,
    events:
    [
        new RawEventData(
            "Customers.CustomerRenamed",
            "1.0.0",
            "{\"customerId\":\"customer-001\",\"name\":\"New Name\"}")
    ]);

See docs/event-sourcing.md for the full guide.

Samples:

• samples/Krackend.EventSourcing.Sqlite.Sample: typed event-sourced write model with SQLite.
• samples/Krackend.EventSourcing.Centralized.Sample: centralized raw JSON event store with SQLite.
• samples/Krackend.EventSourcing.Pelican.Sample: exploratory Pelican/template integration.
• samples/Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.RuntimeHost.Sample: host that mounts runtime storage, Mule buffering, Pigeon messaging, Redis gossip, ButterMorph, and Runtime WebUI.
• samples/Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.ControlPlaneHost.Sample: control-plane host that mounts design, distribution, security, WebUI, artifact delivery endpoints, and EF migrations.

Sagas Orchestrations

Krackend Sagas Orchestrations is split into composable libraries so the runtime, control plane, transport adapters, client integrations, and UI modules can evolve independently:

• Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.ControlPlane* captures orchestration definitions, versions, releases, runtime nodes, credentials, and artifact delivery.
• Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.Runtime* consumes immutable artifacts, projects ingress configuration, runs durable Mule-backed work, dispatches transport-agnostic commands, tracks instances, and exposes runtime diagnostics.
• Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.Client* lets services start or answer orchestration work without changing business payloads. Pigeon is one messaging adapter and Spider is a pipeline extension over the client core.
• Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.SchemaRegistry* keeps schema resolution provider-neutral, with KnOwl Control Plane available as the plug-in adapter for deployed ButterMorph contracts.
• Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.WebUI.Shell, ControlPlane.WebUI, and Runtime.WebUI provide Razor UI modules for host applications.
• Krackend.Sagas.Orchestrations.ControlPlane.Api and Runtime.Api expose optional REST endpoints over the same application/runtime services used by the WebUI modules.

KnOwl schema registry setup for a design/control-plane host:

builder.Services.AddKrackendKnOwlSchemaRegistry(options =>
{
    options.BaseUri = new Uri("https://knowl-control-plane.local");
    options.ProviderKey = "knowl";
});

The KnOwl adapter reads deployed contracts from the KnOwl Control Plane. Event bindings resolve one event artifact, while command bindings can resolve the command request and reply artifacts together so orchestration artifacts keep immutable snapshots for validation, transformation, runtime dispatch, and response handling.

Minimal runtime host setup:

builder.Services.AddOrchestratorRuntimeWebUI(options =>
{
    options.RoutePrefix = "runtime";
});

builder.Services.AddOrchestratorRuntimeStorageEntityFramework(options =>
{
    options.UseSqlServer(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("Runtime"));
});

builder.Services
    .AddKrackendOrchestrationsRuntime()
    .AddPigeon(builder.Configuration)
    .AddMule(mule =>
    {
        mule.UseEntityFrameworkCore<RuntimeDbContext>();
    });

builder.Services.AddKrackendOrchestrationsRuntimeButterMorph();

app.MapOrchestratorRuntimeDistributionEndpoints();
app.MapKrackendOrchestrationsRuntimeApi();
app.MapOrchestratorRuntimeReactiveHub();

Minimal control-plane host setup:

builder.Services.AddOrchestratorControlPlane(options =>
{
    options.AdminRootPath = "admin";
    options.ConfigureStorage = db =>
        db.UseSqlServer(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("ControlPlane"));
});

app.MapOrchestratorArtifactDeliveryEndpoints();
app.MapKrackendOrchestrationsControlPlaneApi();

See docs/sagas-orchestrations-end-to-end.md for the complete Orchestrator walkthrough with models, lifecycle steps, distribution flow, runtime execution, playbooks, risks, and diagnostics.

Release

Packages are produced only by explicit dotnet pack or by the Build and Release workflow. The repository .release file contains the next release tag, for example v2.2.0; when that marker changes on main, the workflow validates the changelog section, creates the release branch/tag, packs all source libraries, and publishes the NuGet artifacts.

Event Sourcing Testing

Krackend.EventSourcing.Testing provides reducer/decider helpers and DI-friendly services for testing event sourcing flows without a real event store. It is meant for application tests, package adapters, and external test hosts that need to assert event sourcing behavior without booting EF Core, SQL Server, SQLite, or a production event store.

services.AddKrackendEventSourcingTesting();

var eventStore = provider.GetRequiredService<IEventSourcingTestEventStore>();
var assertions = provider.GetRequiredService<IEventSourcingTestAssertions>();
var stream = EventStreamReference.Create("customers", customerId);

await eventStore.AppendAsync(stream, [new CustomerCreated(customerId)]);

await assertions.ShouldHaveEventAsync<CustomerCreated>("customers", customerId);
await assertions.ShouldHaveVersionAsync("customers", customerId, 1);

Append with expected-version behavior and metadata:

await eventStore.AppendAsync(
    stream,
    ExpectedVersion.NoStream,
    [new CustomerCreated(customerId)],
    new Dictionary<string, object?>
    {
        ["correlation-id"] = correlationId
    });

Available assertions include:

• stream existence
• event type
• event order
• stream version
• metadata
• serialized payload

Failure simulation:

eventStore.FailNextAppendWithConcurrencyConflict(stream);

External test host integrations can use:

services.AddKrackendEventSourcingTestingAdapter();

That adapter-friendly registration allows wrappers such as:

testHost.UseKrackendTesting();
