Re: vaughn vernon - implementing domain-driven design - ch 2

Hi Tom,

I was digging too. And I found: com.saasovation.collaboration.application.ApplicationTest

so I think you are right, there is no explicity diffrent between 
Discussion and Post Author.

User with role Author can create Discussion in Forum and Post in Discussion.
To create Forum you need to have role Creator.

Question is do you need that kind of diffrence?. What your Domain Expert says about it. Ask him for use case creating Forum and Discussion. If it is explicity diffrent from what Domain Expert said than model it as diffrent classes(ForumAuthor, PostAuthor)

Author would also be an appropriate entity for a simple post inside a Discussion, so I expect createPost() to also use authorFrom method to convert a string into an Author. And it would be very acceptable that a User is allowed to post to on going discussions, but not to create new discussions. I feel the permission check being part of authorFrom to be questionable; the name suggests it merely searches if an author with the given ID exists.

When creating Forum only author has that kind of permission so when it is created by integration service CollaboratorService.authorFrom(Tenant aTenant, String anIdentity) there is checking if this User has this permission in AIC.

I understand the example where User and Permission are not correct within the Collaboration Context, and that Author is more appropriate, moving User out to a separate Security Context. What I'm missing is how in the improved example the permission check is done. I can't find a call out to the Security Context checking if the User associated with the Author has permission to start a discussion. Should I assume that there is some kind of container checking this (just like the @Transactional is handled by a container)? I would be greatly against that, because that would bind a behavior aspect onto an (somewhat hidden) implementation; I'd rather have an explicit mention of the required permission behavior on Forum, or at least an e
 xplicit annotation @RequiresStartDiscussionPermission or something.
