Extract Specialized Service
A special case of Extract Class
Motivation
As one step of Carve Out Bounded Context (out of Monolith) you’ve found a domain service that has become too big. The decision has been made to split it.
Mechanics
- Create empty new class in carved-out context
- Add instance field of type new class to the old class
- Copy first to-be-moved method to new class => Move Method
- Replace method body in old class with a forward to method in new class
- Step by step replace calls to the method in the old class with calls to the method in the new class
- Delete the implementation in the old class
- Repeat with other to-be-moved methods
- Remove instance field of type new class in the old class
