Implementowanie Czystej Architektury w Pythonie
Sebastian Buczyński
Zaawansowane programowanie zaczyna się tam, gdzie kończy się framework Praca programisty wydaje się dziś znacznie prostsza niż kilkanaście lat temu. Wydaje się taka, ponieważ ma on dostęp do niezliczonych bibliotek przypisanych do języków programowania. Gdy pojawia się problem, sięga do biblioteki ― i po sprawie. Problem rozwiązany, zgadza się? I tak, i nie. Owszem, w wypadku prostych projektów wystarczy bazowa znajomość zasad programowania, podstawowa znajomość danego języka i wiedza na temat tego, co zawiera konkretna biblioteka. Tak jednak działa to jedynie przy nieskomplikowanych aplikacjach. Bez wątpienia dziś łatwiej zacząć programować i szybciej można uzyskać mierzalne efekty, ale... ...prawdziwe programowanie zaczyna się poziom wyżej. Na etapie większych projektów. Bo duże systemy, niezależnie od języka, w jakim zostały napisane, zawsze są trudne ― zarówno w rozwijaniu, jak i w utrzymaniu. Książka, którą trzymasz w ręku, została napisana ze świadomością tej programistycznej prawdy. Adresowana do średnio zaawansowanych programistów zajmujących się rozwojem aplikacji internetowych, stanowi kompletny przewodnik po implementacji czystej architektury. Znajdziesz tu także opisy wielu technik, które pomogą Ci zapanować nad projektami rozwijanymi od dłuższego czasu, takich jak strategia testowania czy modularyzacja. Dzięki ich opanowaniu będzie Ci o wiele łatwiej dbać o poprawność funkcjonowania systemów, nad którymi sprawujesz programistyczną pieczę.

Oto Europa niedalekiej przyszłości, targana falami terroryzmu i wykasłująca ze śliną kolejne mutacje wirusów. Europa, na rubieżach której nadal widać łuny i czarne dymy. Również doktorem Derekiem Ruyterem, neurochirurgiem z lemburskiego Oostenlo, szarpią spazmy nieprzepracowanej żałoby po stracie najbliższej osoby, a torsje łagodzą pigułki oraz terapie. Ruyter jednak będzie musiał wziąć udział w grze, i bynajmniej nie chodzi o karty. W puli, jak się okaże, leży sporo żetonów o wysokich, bardzo wysokich nominałach. Pojawia się ktoś, kto wyjaśnia Derekowi zasady tej gry, ale czy wyjaśnienia nie są przypadkiem zaciemnieniami? Impneurium. Sygnały z kosmosu to mozaikowa opowieść o miłości i nienawiści, ale też o prawie do zemsty i o rozpoczęciu nowego życia, nie tylko uczuciowego. Czy niesiemy na plecach krzyże, których deski pozbijali nasi przodkowie i czy ponosimy odpowiedzialność za ich czyny? To również historia o zaświatach, których - tak przynajmniej wydawało się Ruyterowi, umysłowi ścisłemu - nie ma. A może jednak istnieją? Przecież religie mówią, że coś czeka nas "po drugiej stronie"... A właśnie - religie. Co mogło być ich początkiem? To science fiction bliskiego zasięgu zmiksowane z technothrillerem. Wybuchy uczuć i eksplozje bomb. Przyziemne problemy i orbitalna eskapada, która - wyciągając na światło dzienne tajemnicę z przeszłości - nieoczekiwanie zatrzęsie Starym Kontynentem, jakby nie miał on dość problemów. Jesteście gotowi sprawdzić, kto za tym wszystkim stoi? --------- Andrzej Miszczak (1970) publikuje niewiele, choć czytelnicy fantastyki mogą go kojarzyć od 20 lat. Gościł na łamach czasopism (Nowa Fantastyka) i w kilku antologiach (m.in. "Science Fiction", "Głos Lema", "Mars", "Epidemie"). Udział w jednej z nich ("Nowe idzie") zaowocował nominacją do Nagrody Fandomu Polskiego im. Janusza A. Zajdla. Ale to dawne dzieje, niemal prehistoria. Być może nadszedł czas na tzw. nowe otwarcie...
