Laravel Repositories

Structured repository layer for Laravel with contracts, Eloquent implementations, cache decorators and CQRS-friendly bindings.

This package provides a production-ready way to generate repositories with:

• strict contracts
• Eloquent adapters
• optional cache decorators (with versioned cache keys)
• automatic service container bindings
• ready-to-run unit tests (PHPUnit or Pest)

Installation

composer require alex-kudrya/laravel-repositories

// bootstrap/providers.php

return [
    ...
    \AlexKudrya\LaravelRepositories\Providers\RepositoriesServiceProvider::class,
 ]

For Laravel ≤10 the provider can also be registered in config/app.php.

Usage

The package ships with a single artisan command:

php artisan make:repository Product --model=Product

Or run it as an interactive wizard (recommended):

php artisan make:repository

What will be generated

By default it creates:

• app/Repositories/Contracts/RepositoryContract.php
• app/Repositories/Implementations/Eloquent/Repository.php
• app/Repositories/Implementations/Cached/CacheRepository.php (optional)
• app/Providers/RepositoryServiceProvider.php (created if missing)
• service container bindings inside RepositoryServiceProvider

Cache decorator

If cache is enabled, the decorator uses versioned cache keys to invalidate all cached lists on write operations (create/update/delete) without tracking each individual key.

Publishing Stubs

You can publish stubs to customize generated code

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-repositories-stubs

Published to:

• stubs/laravel-repositories

Testing (PHPUnit / Pest)

The generator can create repository unit tests compatible with PHPUnit or Pest. • If Pest is installed in your app, Pest-style tests will be generated. • Otherwise, PHPUnit tests will be generated.

The tests are designed to be green by default (no skipped, no incomplete, no model-field assumptions).
