# CQRS PHP

Separate the code that changes state from the code that reads it — clear command and query handlers with zero boilerplate.

## Code Example

#### Registering Command Handlers

Let's create `PlaceOrder` `Command` that will place an order in our system.

```php
class PlaceOrder
{
    private string $orderId;
    private string $productName;

    public function __construct(string $orderId, string $productName)
    {
        $this->orderId = $orderId;
        $this->productName = $productName;
    }

    public function getOrderId(): string
    {
        return $this->orderId;
    }

    public function getProductName(): string
    {
        return $this->productName;
    }
}
```

And `Command Handler` that will handle this Command

```php
use Ecotone\Modelling\Attribute\CommandHandler;

class OrderService
{
    private array $orders;

    #[CommandHandler]
    public function placeOrder(PlaceOrder $command) : void
    {
        $this->orders[$command->getOrderId()] = $command->getProductName();
    }
}
```

#### Registering Query Handlers

Let's define `GetOrder` `Query` that will find our placed order.

```php
class GetOrder
{
    private string $orderId;

    public function __construct(string $orderId)
    {
        $this->orderId = $orderId;
    }

    public function getOrderId(): string
    {
        return $this->orderId;
    }
}
```

And `Query Handler`that will handle this query

```php
use Ecotone\Modelling\Attribute\CommandHandler;
use Ecotone\Modelling\Attribute\QueryHandler;

class OrderService
{
    private array $orders;

    #[CommandHandler]
    public function placeOrder(PlaceOrder $command) : void
    {
        $this->orders[$command->getOrderId()] = $command->getProductName();
    }

    #[QueryHandler]
    public function getOrder(GetOrder $query) : string
    {
         if (!array_key_exists($query->getOrderId(), $this->orders)) {
             throw new \InvalidArgumentException("Order was not found " . $query->getOrderId());
         }

         return $this->orders[$query->getOrderId()];
    }
}
```

## Running The Example

```php
$commandBus->send(new PlaceOrder(1, "Milk"));

echo $queryBus->send(new GetOrder(1));
```

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ecotone.tech/quick-start-php-ddd-cqrs-event-sourcing/php-cqrs.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
