burzum/cakephp-service-layer

This system is a CakePHP 5 plugin that implements a service-oriented architecture, providing a structured way to organize business logic into distinct service and domain model layers. It automates the generation of service classes and their associated PHPDoc annotations to support IDE autocomplete and static analysis. The framework also handles pagination and service location, ensuring compatibility with modern CakePHP APIs while maintaining backward compatibility for existing plugins.

How it got here

2018 · CakePHP 5 migration and test infrastructure

The project was upgraded from CakePHP 3.5 to 5.0, requiring significant refactoring of the service layer to align with the new paging API and modern PHP standards. Concurrently, comprehensive test infrastructure was established, including PHPUnit configurations, domain model locators, and extensive unit tests for the service and pagination components.

2019–2020 · Service layer implementation

This period focused on implementing a new service layer architecture, including the creation of a bake command and associated templates for generating service classes. To support this, automatic PHPDoc annotations were added to improve IDE and static analysis tooling, while comprehensive unit tests were introduced to validate the new components.
