README

A Laravel package designed to streamline the implementation of the repository pattern in your projects. This tool generates a complete repository setup, including repository classes, interfaces, and service classes, helping developers maintain clean, organized, and decoupled codebases. This package is ideal for teams and individuals following Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles, enabling faster scaffolding of repositories and services for Laravel applications.

📦 Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require amroboney/repository-generator

If the package is not on Packagist and hosted on GitHub, add this to your Laravel app’s composer.json:

"repositories": [
  {
    "type": "vcs",
    "url": "https://github.com/amroboney/repository-generator"
  }
]

Then install it with:

composer require amroboney/repository-generator:dev-main

⚙️ Usage

Generate a repository, interface, and service using the artisan command:

php artisan make:repository ModelName

This will generate the following files automatically:

app/
├── Repositories
│    └── Interfaces/
│    │   └── ModelNameRepositoryInterface.php
│    └── Repositories/
│       └── ModelNameRepository.php
└── Services/
  └── ModelNameService.php

You only need to replace ModelName with the relevant name for your feature or entity (e.g., User).

🌟 Features

• Automated File Generation: Instantly creates repository and service structures, saving significant development time.
• Repository Pattern Support: Promotes clear separation of concerns between business logic and database operations in Laravel.
• Configurable Structure: Adheres to Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design principles.
• PHP 8.1+ Compatibility: Leverages modern PHP syntax and features for robust development.

📂 File Structure Example

If you run the command php artisan make:repository User, this is how your file structure will look:

app/
├── Repositories/
│   ├── Interfaces/
│   │   └── UserRepositoryInterface.php
│   └── Implementations/
│       └── UserRepository.php
└── Services/
    └── UserService.php

• UserRepositoryInterface.php: Defines the contract for the repository.
• UserRepository.php: Implements the repository logic for interacting with the database.
• UserService.php: Contains business logic and operations for the User entity.
