Common/Reusable Components for Client Module

[ackris]

Title

As a developer, I want to create common components for the client module so that reusable and consistent functionality is available for interacting with Atomstate.

Narrative

As a developer,
I want to create common components for the client module,
So that reusable and consistent functionality is provided for interacting with Atomstate’s event store and stream-processing features.

Acceptance Criteria

1. Configuration Management

   • Develop a configuration management component to handle the setup and validation of client parameters such as server address, authentication tokens, and timeouts.
   • Ensure the component supports loading configurations from various sources (e.g., environment variables, configuration files).

2. Error Handling Framework

   • Implement a centralized error handling component to manage and categorize errors from API interactions and internal operations.
   • Include mechanisms for logging errors, generating user-friendly messages, and retrying operations when appropriate.

3. Networking Utilities

   • Create a networking utilities component to handle HTTP requests, including methods for GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE operations.
   • Implement features for handling retries, timeouts, and response parsing.

4. Authentication and Authorization

   • Develop a component for managing authentication and authorization, including token generation, validation, and renewal.
   • Ensure that the component securely handles credentials and integrates with Atomstate’s authentication mechanisms.

5. Serialization and Deserialization

   • Build a component for serializing and deserializing data to and from Atomstate’s required formats (e.g., JSON).
   • Ensure the component handles data conversion efficiently and supports custom serialization needs.

6. Logging and Monitoring

   • Implement a logging and monitoring component to track client operations and performance metrics.
   • Provide configurable logging levels and integration with monitoring tools for real-time insights.

7. Testing Utilities

   • Create testing utilities for simulating API responses, handling mock data, and validating client behavior.
   • Ensure that these utilities support unit testing and integration testing scenarios.

8. Documentation

   • Provide clear documentation for each common component, including usage instructions, configuration options, and examples.
   • Ensure that the documentation is maintained alongside code updates and reflects current functionality.

Additional Information

• Common components should be modular and loosely coupled to ensure ease of maintenance and future enhancements.
• Components must adhere to Atomstate’s coding standards and best practices to ensure consistency and quality across the client module.

This user story aims to deliver a set of robust, reusable common components that provide essential functionality for the client module, enhancing development efficiency and ensuring consistent interactions with Atomstate.
