I want to keep my list GWT side after fetch it from service side.For example i have button A and when i press, it bring me the list of patient names which start with 'A'. So; I don't want to fetch names from service side all the time. I want to take them for once and store in the cilent side. What am I suppose to do about it? Do you have any suggestion? Thanks.
Fetch them all at once at the beginning, and save them on a list and keep a reference of that list across the aplication (where you need it). Then every time you want to see more, just use that list and show the ones you wish to view. But keep in mind that if you have a lot of information on the server side, it might very well be better fetch just a few at the time, otherwise it might take a lot of time to get the bulk list at once.
At beginning fetch all list name and stored them. From this it will not provide u latest or frequented name list. so u can use gwt event service in gwt. I don't know the requirement but u can track like if new patient is added then it will fire the event from server to client and try to add that user also in that list.

I'm wondering what are the best ways to delete items from a subset in a restful way. I got users and series, each user has his own list of series (watching, completed, etc). For example, if we want to get a list from a user we can do it with: GET /users/:id_user/series
If we want to delete a serie from the list of that user (but we don't want to delete the serie itself), how should it be?
I thought about the possibility of using DELETE /users/:id_user/series/:id_serie, but I'm not sure if it's the correct way for this case (maybe PATCH?).
I got another case, we got series and reviews. We can get the reviews like this: GET /series/:serie_id/reviews. In the other case we didn't want to delete the serie itself when deleting from a user list of series, but in this case we want to delete the review because its existence depends on the serie. So I guess in this case DELETE /series/:serie_id/reviews/:review_id is correct.
Is this difference important in order to choose the rest operation to delete the object/item from the subset?
How would you do it on the web?
You'd follow a link to a form, with input controls. You might have a something like a dropdown if you wanted to delete one series at a time, or lots of check boxes if you wanted to support a bulk delete. The user would provide input, hit the submit button, and the browser would create an application/x-www-form-urlencoded document and send it to the server.
What method would be used? Normally POST, because we are intending an edit to some resource on the server.
What resource would we be editing? Well, in trutch, it could be anything -- the server would include that information in the form metadata, so the client can just do what it is told.
So where should the server tell it to submit the form? Again, it could be anywhere... but a useful approach is to think about what resource in the client's cache is being updated. Because if we send the request to that resource, we get intelligent cache invalidation "for free".
So on the web, we would expect to see:
POST /users/:id_user/series
Does it have to be POST? On the HTML web, maybe it does, because the ubiquitous client of the web is a browser, not an editor.
It is okay to use POST.
But a perfectly valid alternative would be to edit the local copy of /users/:id_user/series, and then send back to the server a complete copy of the new version (PUT) or a patch-document describing the edits (PATCH). Notice that with both of these choices, the target uri is still /user/:id_user/series, so we still get the cache invalidation magic.
Creating a new resource in your model just to have something to DELETE is probably the wrong idea.
There are cases where an edit, or a delete, will necessarily impact more than one resource.
There are some specific circumstances when you can get the right magic cache invalidation with two resources (for instance, delete one document, and send back an updated copy of another).
But we don't, today, have a general purpose cache invalidation mechanism. (Closest thing I've been able to find is this, which seems to have stalled out in 2012.
I've gone through several tutorials on Flutter and I find that they cover basics just fine but there are some nagging aspects of good design and good architecture that are consistently missing. I'm writing my first actual (not toy) application in Flutter and find myself running into these missing points.
Global data. Once a person installs the application and tries to use it, I ask them to log in / create an account, since this is an application specifically for managing groups of people. I'm using Firebase on the back end, and the package to do authentication winds up returning Future<FirebaseUser> from everything. So, yes, when it comes to building a Widget that uses the user's data, I can use a FutureBuilder. That said, it seems weird to have to keep typing boilerplate FutureBuilder code to dereference the user every place I want to use the user's ID to look up their data (what groups are they part of, what actions do they have pending, etc.). I really feel like there ought to be a way to invoke the future, get the actual user object, and then store it somewhere so that anything that wants a user ID for a query can just go get it. What's the right solution? I can't believe I'm the only person who has this problem.
Updatable data. I've got a page where I list the groups the current user is a member of. The user, though, can create a new group, join an existing group, or leave a group. When they do that, I need to redraw the page. The list of groups comes from running a Firebase query, so performing an action (join, leave, etc.) should signal the app to redraw the page, which will have the side effect of re-running the query. Conceivably, one might make the page dependent (how?) on the query results and have it redraw whenever they update, and instead have some widget somewhere that keeps track of the query. There's another answer here that hints that this might be the right way to go, but that's really concerned with relatively invariant data (locale doesn't change all that often for a single user). So, again, I can't believe I'm the only one who does this sort of thing. What's the best practice in this case?
we're using react-admin with a jsonServerRestClient from ra-data-json-server. We've encapsulated it to handle GET_MANY a little differently, so we already have a touchpoint there to control what goes to the server.
Going forward we would like to be able to send a delta of changes when an item is modified, as some items (in our case, groups) have 4k+ members in them.
While we could save the raw objects to local storage when they come into our REST client and use that info to create a delta upon save, the state and reducers should have that info already somewhere else, right?
So what files should I look at to see how to modify what gets sent to the REST client during modify events?
Figured it out, React-Admin actually is nice enough to give us the previous version of whatever data it wants to save. When you're writing a restClient you will be given type, resource and params. Inside params is both params.data and params.previousData. You can do your deltas there, comparing both.
In most command interfaces I've seen, there is typically an "Execute" method which takes takes a command input and either returns void or some generic structure indicating if the command executed successfully or not (we are using the latter). Now, I've never thought of this before, but we suddenly got the need to know some more details about the result of the command than what you can expose generically.
Consider the following example:
you have a team and you are creating a screen where you can add members to your team. The members of the team are shown in a grid below the "add new member"-stuff. Now, when you press "add new member" you want to run some jquery/roundohuse/whatever and add the new member to the list of team members. No problems so far, but: you also want to include some identification data in a hidden field for each member and this id-data comes from the server.
So the problem is: how can I get that id-data from the server? The "AddNewTeamMember" command which I am pushing through the "ExecuteCommand"-method does not give me anything useful back, and if I add a new query method to the service saying something like: "GetLastAddedTeamMember" then I might just get the last entry added by someone else (at least if this is data which is very aggressively added by different users). In some situations you have a natural unique identifier generated on the client side which we can use, but for team members we did not.
Given that you have no choice but to update an on-page widget when another command completes, I see two choices for you:
Shoot off the command, display something locally that indicates it is submitted, and then wait until you get a notification from the server that the team member list has changed. Update the widget to reflect that.
Add a correlation ID to your command when you submit it, and add the team member provisionally locally to the list. When you get a confirmation from the server that a team member update happened because of your correlation ID, update your local data.
I would suggest the first approach, where the "provisional indicator" could be throwing a marked version of the normal indication into place; then, when you finally get an update you should have the data you need.
Given you went with CQRS to solve this problem I assume you have frequent updates to the content of those widgets happening in the background already, so have presumably solved the "background update" problem.
If not, I suggest you either ditch CQRS as a bad - over-complicated - solution in your problem space, or solve the background update problem first.
If you want to add an existing team member, you should query the read side of your application for this data. If you need to add a new team member, you have to consider if it's necessary to show the user in the grid below at once. Can you wait until the team member is in place on the read side? You can also query a service on the server side to get an unique ID (it can return a GUID). Then you add the team member to the grid, and of course, send the command to the server. But, if it's possible, try to design the application in a way that you don't have to show the team member at once. It's also possible to give the user a message saying something like this: "Team member added, waiting for response from server.". Then use AJAX to query the read side for new team members. When it appears on the read side, show it in the grid. You might have to deal with team members added by other users, but does it matter? CQRS gives you a great way to collaborate with other users, so maybe you should take advantage of that. As I see it; CQRS forces you to think different, and that may not be a bad thing.
I am currently drafting a concept for a (mostly) HTML-based collaboration suite which I plan to implement using CQRS. This software will contain messages that can be sent to the user (which can either be read or unread, obviously) and other elements which shall be marked "new" if they were created after the last user login.
Hardly something new, but I am not quite sure how that would be correctly implemented using CQRS. As I understand it, Change of any kind should, without exception, only be possible via Commands. But creating commands for every single (new) element that is being accessed seems a bit too much, not to mention the overhead.
I don't know if I need it, but what would be the best way to implement a Last-Accessed Timestamp on elements. Basically the same problem like the above, with the difference that the change happens EVERY time the element is accessed, not only the first time for each user.
CQRS seems to be an awesome concept but it really needs more learning material. Can't wait till a book is released :)

[Edit] No one? Wouldn't have thought that this is such a complicated issue..
I assume you're using event-sourcing in which case once you allow your query-service/event-handlers to raise appropriate events then this becomes fairly easy to solve.
For your messages/elements; when handling the specific creation events of your elements either add to existing or create additional event-handlers, to store to a messages read-model with a status of new and appropriate information about the element.
As part of you're user login I don't see why you can't raise a user-logged-in event (from the security/query service depending on how your implementing authentication) to say the user has logged in. An event-handler could capture this and write the last-login timestamp to a specific user-last-login read-model.
In addition the user-logged-in event-handler would need to update all the new messages (for that user) to an unread status. Seeing as we're changing the status of the messages as the user logs in do you still need to store the last-login timestamp?
For your last-accessed timestamp, perhaps you could just work this into your query service as queries for your different elements complete. Raise a query-completed event with element id/type information.
