# EventStore::Tiny [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/memowe/EventStore-Tiny.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/memowe/EventStore-Tiny)

A minimal event sourcing framework.

## Example

Prepare event types and their predefined state actions (by side-effect):

```perl
use EventStore::Tiny;

my $store = EventStore::Tiny->new;

$store->register_event(UserAdded => sub {
    my ($state, $data) = @_;

    # Use $data to inject the new user into the given $state
    $state->{users}{$data->{id}} = {
        name => $data->{name},
    };
});
```

Push an event to the event store. A high-resolution timestamp and an UUID will be generated automatically. Events execute their state actions on data they get here:

```perl
$store->store_event(UserAdded => {id => 17, name => 'Bob'});
```

State is generated by replaying the stored events:

```perl
say 'His name is ' . $store->snapshot->state->{users}{17}{name}; # Bob
```

See [Tamagotchi.pm][tpm] and [tamagotchi.t][tt] for a non-trivial demo.

## Features

- Flexible snapshots (high-resolution timestamps) and event substreams
- Customizable event logging
- Simple storage solution for events in the file system
- Transparent snapshot caching mechanism to improve performance
