Progress! so i have moved into working on aggregates. Which are a grouping of events that replayed on an object set the current state of the object. I came up with this little bit of generic wonder.
type PA[T any] interface {
event.Aggregate
*T
}
// Create uses fn to create a new aggregate and store in db.
func Create[A any, T PA[A]](ctx context.Context, es *EventStore, streamID string, fn func(context.Context, T) error) (agg T, err error) {
ctx, span := logz.Span(ctx)
defer span.End()
agg = new(A)
agg.SetStreamID(streamID)
if err = es.Load(ctx, agg); err != nil {
return
}
if err = event.NotExists(agg); err != nil {
return
}
if err = fn(ctx, agg); err != nil {
return
}
var i uint64
if i, err = es.Save(ctx, agg); err != nil {
return
}
span.AddEvent(fmt.Sprint("wrote events = ", i))
return
}
This lets me do something like this:
a, err := es.Create(ctx, r.es, streamID, func(ctx context.Context, agg *domain.SaltyUser) error {
return agg.OnUserRegister(nick, key)
})
I can tell the function the type being modified and returned using the function argument that is passed in. pretty cray cray.

Hi, I am playing with making an event sourcing database. Its super alpha but I thought I would share since others are talking about databases and such.
It’s super basic. Using tidwall/wal as the disk backing. The first use case I am playing with is an implementation of msgbus. I can post events to it and read them back in reverse order.

I plan to expand it to handle other event sourcing type things like aggregates and projections.
