This book teaches you how to write clean code. It presents software design and development principles and patterns in a very practical manner. This book is suitable for both junior and senior developers. Some basic knowledge of programming in Python is required. All examples in this book are presented in Python, except some examples related to frontend code, which are in jаvascript/TypeScript. The content of this book is divided into ten chapters. All Python examples in this book require Python 3.11 or later. This is a book for primarily software developers. For that reason, some topics are not covered exhaustively. This includes topics related to architecture, DevSecOps, E2E, and non-functional testing. Those are topics most relevant to software architects, DevOps specialists and test/QA engineers. I want to cover them in this book because it is always good to have a basic understanding of topics closely related to software development.
This book presents a lot of principles, best practices, and patterns. It can be difficult to grasp them all on a single read, which is not the purpose. You should pick the most relevant topics for yourself, embrace them, and try to put them into use in everyday coding. You can always return to the book to learn additional topics. Some principles, patterns, and practices can be subjective and open for debate, but I have only put into this book such principles, patterns, and practices that I have used or would use myself. In the last Conclusion chapter, I will list the topics that I consider the most important based on my experience in real-life projects.
The second chapter is about architectural design principles that enable the development of true cloud-native microservices. The first architectural design principle described is the single responsibility principle, which defines that a piece of software should be responsible for one thing at its abstraction level. Then, a uniform naming principle for microservices, clients, APIs, and libraries is presented. The encapsulation principle defines how each software component should hide its internal state behind a public API. The service aggregation principle is introduced with a detailed explanation of how a higher-level microservice can aggregate lower-level microservices. Architectural patterns like event sourcing, command query responsibility segregation (CQRS), and distributed transactions are discussed. Distributed transactions are covered with examples using the saga orchestration pattern and the saga choreography pattern. You get answers on how to avoid code duplication at the architectural level. The externalized configuration principle describes how service configuration should be handled in modern environments. We discuss the service substitution principle, which states that dependent services a microservice uses should be easily substitutable. The importance of autopilot microservices is discussed from the point of view of statelessness, resiliency, high availability, observability, and automatic scaling. Towards the end of the chapter, there is a discussion about different ways microservices can communicate. Several rules are presented on how to version software components. The chapter ends with discussing why limiting the number of technologies used in a software system is helpful.
The third chapter presents object-oriented design principles. We start the chapter with object-oriented programming concepts and programming paradigms followed by the SOLID principles: Single responsibility principle, open-closed principle, Liskov’s substitution principle, interface segregation principle, and dependency inversion principle. Each SOLID principle is presented with realistic but simple examples. The uniform naming principle defines a uniform way to name interfaces, classes, functions, function pairs, boolean functions (predicates), builder, factory, conversion, and lifecycle methods. The encapsulation principle describes that a class should encapsulate its internal state and how immutability helps ensure state encapsulation. The encapsulation principle also discusses the importance of not leaking an object’s internal state out. The object composition principle defines that composition should be preferred over inheritance. Tactical Domain-driven design (DDD) is presented with two real-world examples. All the design patterns from the GoF’s Design Patterns book are presented with realistic yet straightforward examples. The don’t ask, tell principle is presented as a way to avoid the feature envy design smell. The chapter also discusses avoiding primitive obsession and the benefits of using semantically validated function arguments. The chapter ends by presenting the dependency injection principle and avoiding code duplication principle. The fourth chapter is about coding principles. The chapter starts with a principle for uniformly naming variables in code. A uniform naming convention is presented for integer, floating-point, boolean, string, enum, and collection variables.
The book is divided into ten chapters:
