Introduction #

The Module Documentation is a crucial component of the NovaFacies Open Source Framework (NFF) documentation, providing developers with a deep dive into the various modules that comprise the NFF ecosystem. This documentation serves as a guide for understanding, implementing, and extending the functionalities offered by each module.  

The Module Documentation should be structured in a clear and concise manner, making it easy for developers to navigate and find the information they need. Each module should have its own dedicated section within the documentation, outlining its purpose, functionalities, and implementation details.  

The following sections should be included for each module:

Overview #

This section should provide a high-level overview of the module, including its purpose, functionalities, and dependencies on other modules or external systems. It should also describe the module’s role within the overall NFF architecture.  

Functional Specifications #

This section should detail the core features and functionalities offered by the module. It should describe the inputs, outputs, and expected behavior of each function or method, providing clear and concise specifications.  

Data Models #

This section should define the data structures and schemas used by the module. It should describe the entities, attributes, and relationships involved, ensuring consistency and interoperability with other modules.  

Business Logic #

This section should describe the business rules and logic implemented within the module. It should explain the algorithms, calculations, and decision-making processes involved in fulfilling the module’s functionalities.  

Non-Functional Requirements #

This section should outline the non-functional requirements of the module, such as performance, scalability, security, and reliability. It should define the expected performance metrics, scalability targets, security considerations, and availability requirements.  

Implementation Considerations #

This section should provide guidance on implementing the module, including technology choices, design patterns, and best practices. It should discuss suitable technologies and frameworks for implementing the module, without mandating specific choices.  

Testing and Deployment #

This section should provide guidelines for testing and deploying the module, including unit testing, integration testing, and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. It should outline the testing methodologies and deployment strategies to ensure the quality and reliability of the module.
