# EvidentSource SDK for Python

Python SDK for building WebAssembly state changes and state views that run on the EvidentSource event sourcing platform.

## Installation

```bash
pip install evidentsource-functions
```

## Quick Start - State View

Create a state view by extending `StateViewBase` and using `StateViewAdapter`:

```python
from dataclasses import dataclass
from evidentsource_functions import StateViewBase, Event
from evidentsource_functions.wasm import StateViewAdapter

@dataclass
class AccountSummary(StateViewBase):
    balance: float = 0.0
    transaction_count: int = 0

    def evolve_event(self, event: Event) -> None:
        if event.event_type == "account.credited":
            import json
            data = json.loads(event.data_as_string() or "{}")
            self.balance += data.get("amount", 0)
            self.transaction_count += 1

    def to_dict(self) -> dict:
        return {
            "balance": self.balance,
            "transaction_count": self.transaction_count,
        }

    @classmethod
    def from_dict(cls, data: dict) -> "AccountSummary":
        return cls(
            balance=data.get("balance", 0.0),
            transaction_count=data.get("transaction_count", 0),
        )

# Export WitWorld for componentize-py
class WitWorld(StateViewAdapter):
    state_view_type = AccountSummary
```

## Quick Start - State Change

Create a state change by defining a command type, decide function, and using `StateChangeAdapter`:

```python
from dataclasses import dataclass
from evidentsource_functions import (
    StateChangeError,
    StateChangeMetadata,
    DecideResult,
    ProspectiveEvent,
    StringEventData,
)
from evidentsource_functions.wasm import StateChangeAdapter
import json
import uuid

@dataclass
class DepositCommand:
    account_id: str
    amount: float

    @classmethod
    def from_dict(cls, data: dict) -> "DepositCommand":
        return cls(
            account_id=data["account_id"],
            amount=data["amount"],
        )

def decide(db, command: DepositCommand, metadata: StateChangeMetadata) -> DecideResult:
    if command.amount <= 0:
        raise StateChangeError.validation("Amount must be positive")

    event = ProspectiveEvent(
        id=str(uuid.uuid4()),
        stream="accounts",
        event_type="account.credited",
        subject=command.account_id,
        data=StringEventData(json.dumps({
            "account_id": command.account_id,
            "amount": command.amount,
        })),
        datacontenttype="application/json",
    )

    return ([event], [])

# Export WitWorld for componentize-py
class WitWorld(StateChangeAdapter):
    command_type = DepositCommand
    decide_func = staticmethod(decide)
```

## Building WASM Components

Use componentize-py to build your state views and state changes:

```bash
# Build a state view
componentize-py -d ./interface/decider.wit -w state-view \
    componentize \
    -p . \
    -p /path/to/evidentsource-core/src \
    -p /path/to/evidentsource-functions/src \
    -o state_view.wasm \
    my_state_view

# Build a state change
componentize-py -d ./interface/decider.wit -w state-change \
    componentize \
    -p . \
    -p /path/to/evidentsource-core/src \
    -p /path/to/evidentsource-functions/src \
    -o state_change.wasm \
    my_state_change
```

The `-p` flags add Python paths so componentize-py can find the SDK packages and your local modules.

## Features

- **StateViewBase**: Base class for implementing state views
- **StateViewAdapter**: WASM adapter for state views
- **StateChangeAdapter**: WASM adapter for state changes
- **StateChangeError**: Structured errors for state change failures
- **Content negotiation**: Automatic JSON serialization/deserialization
- **Type conversions**: WIT type utilities

## Design Philosophy

The SDK provides a clean separation between WIT types (internal implementation details) and domain types (what users work with). Users define their own domain types and use simple conversion methods to bridge the gap.

**Key Points:**
- State changes emit `ProspectiveEvent` (events before storage)
- State views receive `Event` (stored events with metadata)
- WIT types are handled by the adapter layer
- Your code works with clean Python types
