Real-World Event Sourcing: `handle_command` for subtract doesn't make sense (pg 8)
The book implements handle_command/2 for :sub as follows:
def handle_command(%{value: val}, %{cmd: :sub, value: v}) do
%{event_type: :value_subtracted, max(@min_state_value, val - v)
end
The value in the created event is the result expected after subtraction, i.e., it is not the subtrahend. It can be reimplemented as follows instead:
def handle_command(%{value: val}, %{cmd: :sub, value: v) do
subtrahend = if(val >= v, do: v, else: val)
%{event_type: :value_subtracted, value: subtrahend}
end
First Post!

I’ve found the same issue, but think the code should be like:
def handle_command(%{value: val}, %{cmd: :sub, value: v}) do
%{event_type: :value_subtracted, value: min(val - @min_state_value, v)}
end
In this case we can use @min_state_value correctly(not only 0)
