Does this skill support Doctrine ORM?

Yes, it generates Doctrine-ready implementations for the Infrastructure layer while maintaining clean, framework-agnostic Domain and Application layer interfaces.

How does the Unit of Work handle domain events?

It implements a collector pattern that gathers events from all tracked aggregates during the transaction and ensures they are only dispatched after a successful database commit.

Does this skill generate unit tests?

Yes, it automatically generates PHPUnit test cases for the EntityState enum, AggregateTracker, and the specific Unit of Work implementations.

What version of PHP is required for the generated code?

The generated code is optimized for PHP 8.4, utilizing modern features like Enums, constructor property promotion, and strict property typing.

Does it support nested transactions?

The generated TransactionManagerInterface includes support for transaction lifecycle management which can be implemented with database savepoints for nested operations.

Database Management

Generates robust Unit of Work infrastructure for PHP 8.4 to ensure transactional consistency across multiple domain aggregates.

This skill streamlines the implementation of the Unit of Work design pattern in PHP applications following DDD and Hexagonal Architecture principles. It automates the creation of complex infrastructure components including aggregate trackers, identity maps, and transaction managers, allowing developers to manage multi-entity persistence and domain event dispatching within a single transactional boundary. By generating standardized interfaces and Doctrine-ready implementations, it reduces boilerplate while enforcing architectural best practices for data integrity and system reliability.
