description: Build backend service and repository layers to isolate business logic from persistence and improve testability.

Build Service and Repository Layers

Purpose

Provide patterns for structuring business logic (services) and persistence (repositories) so code is modular, testable, and maintainable.

When to use

Use this skill when you are:

  • •Implementing domain/business rules
  • •Refactoring complex persistence workflows out of controllers
  • •Introducing dependency injection (DI) for testability
  • •Designing repository interfaces for non-trivial queries
  • •Creating service boundaries across modules

Inputs

  • •Domain use cases and business rules
  • •Data model and persistence requirements
  • •Existing conventions (DI framework or manual injection, ORM/query layer)
  • •Error contract and transaction requirements

Outputs

  • •Service API design (method names, inputs, outputs)
  • •Repository interfaces and implementations (where needed)
  • •Dependency boundaries and DI strategy
  • •Unit-test strategy for services

Rules

  • •Services MUST NOT depend on HTTP or framework-specific objects.
  • •Repositories MUST encapsulate persistence details.
  • •Controllers SHOULD call services, not repositories.
  • •Services SHOULD be designed for unit testing (inject dependencies).

Service design guidelines

  • •Keep methods small and intention-revealing.
  • •Prefer pure helper functions for complex computations.
  • •Use domain-specific errors (e.g., conflict, not found) instead of returning sentinel values.

Repository design guidelines

  • •Design repository methods around domain needs, not ORM primitives.
  • •Prefer explicit inputs and explicit ordering.
  • •Do not leak ORM types to upper layers unless the codebase intentionally standardizes on them.

Steps

  1. •Identify the business operation (use case) and expected outcomes.
  2. •Define a service method signature (input DTO, output type, errors).
  3. •Identify persistence needs:
    • •reads
    • •writes
    • •transaction boundaries
  4. •Define repository interfaces for non-trivial persistence operations.
  5. •Implement service orchestration:
    • •validate domain rules
    • •call repositories
    • •map errors
  6. •Add unit tests:
    • •mock repositories
    • •test business rules and error cases

Verification

  • • Service methods are unit-testable with mocked repositories
  • • Service does not depend on HTTP/framework-specific objects (e.g., req, res)
  • • Repository methods encapsulate persistence details (no ORM leakage to services)
  • • Controllers delegate to services (not directly to repositories)
  • • Domain errors are explicit types, not sentinel values or generic exceptions
  • • Unit tests cover success path and at least one domain error case

Boundaries

  • •MUST NOT import HTTP/framework modules in service layer
  • •MUST NOT bypass service layer to call repositories from controllers
  • •MUST NOT return ORM entities directly from services (map to DTOs if needed)
  • •MUST NOT embed business logic in repositories
  • •SHOULD NOT create circular dependencies between services
  • •SHOULD NOT mix multiple unrelated responsibilities in a single service

Included assets

  • •Templates: ./templates/ includes DI-friendly service and repository skeletons.
  • •Examples: ./examples/ includes a full service with DI and a repository implementation.
