New article covering typed stage boundaries, single-item composition with
flatMap/mapError, batch pipelines that partition successes from failures,
wrapping exception-throwing stages with Try, and a complete event import
example with unit tests for each layer.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Plan item 13 is marked as complete via strikethrough. A new blog article about modeling data transformation pipelines is published, covering typed pipeline abstractions, single-item and batch composition, exception handling, a practical end-to-end event import example, testing patterns, and common mistakes.

Changes

Transformation Pipeline Article

Layer / File(s) Summary
Plan completion and article publication
site/src/content/plan.md, site/src/data/blog/modeling-data-transformation-pipelines.md		 Plan item 13 is struck through to mark it done. Article front matter (title, description, date, author, categories, tags) is introduced.
Core pipeline model and single-item composition
site/src/data/blog/modeling-data-transformation-pipelines.md		 Article introduces the motivation for explicit pipeline structure, defines a pipeline stage as a typed function returning Result, explains single-item composition using flatMap to short-circuit on failure with mapError normalizing errors into a shared PipelineError sealed type, and provides stage design rules with intermediate type naming guidance.
Advanced patterns: batch processing, exceptions, and end-to-end example
site/src/data/blog/modeling-data-transformation-pipelines.md		 Article covers batch processing that partitions successes and failures into BatchResult, wrapping exception-throwing boundaries with Try before converting to Result, and presents a complete event import pipeline with domain types, parse/enrich/store stage implementations, service-layer composition, and caller-side error branching.
Testing guidance, common mistakes, and summary
site/src/data/blog/modeling-data-transformation-pipelines.md		 Article provides unit test examples for individual stages, full pipelines with short-circuit assertions, and batch runners, enumerates four common pipeline mistakes, recaps the four required pipeline characteristics, and includes a "Further reading" section with related links.

Possibly related PRs

  • domix/dmx-fun#438: Both PRs update site/src/content/plan.md by striking through a planned blog item and add a new functional/typed-pipeline blog post under site/src/data/blog, so the documentation changes overlap directly at the plan entry and blog-content level.

Poem

🐰 ✨ A pipeline takes shape so neat and true,
With types and stages, each knows what to do,
From parse to enrich, the data flows right,
No tangles or chaos—just functional light! 🌟

🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1

❌ Failed checks (1 inconclusive)

Check name Status Explanation Resolution
Description check ❓ Inconclusive The description provides a detailed summary of the article content but the required template sections lack proper completion; Summary section duplicates the intro without elaboration, Related Issues section contains placeholders unfilled, and checklist shows unit tests were not added despite the template expectation. Expand the Summary section to explain the problem solved by the article, complete or remove the Related Issues placeholders, and clarify why unit tests weren't added as a PR change.
✅ Passed checks (4 passed)
Check name Status Explanation
Title check ✅ Passed The title 'docs(blog): add post on modeling data transformation pipelines' directly and specifically describes the main change: adding a new blog post about modeling data transformation pipelines.
Docstring Coverage ✅ Passed No functions found in the changed files to evaluate docstring coverage. Skipping docstring coverage check.
Linked Issues check ✅ Passed Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.
