Thanks for helping Opscale continue to scale! ๐Ÿš€ Description ----------- [](#description) Enforce software architecture guidelines for your Laravel projects with opinionated, battle-tested rules that promote maintainable, scalable code. ### Why Use Architectural Guidelines? [](#why-use-architectural-guidelines) Modern software projects face increasing complexity as they scale. Without clear architectural boundaries, codebases become tangled, difficult to test, and expensive to maintain. Our approach focuses on **preventing architectural debt** before it accumulates, ensuring your Laravel applications remain clean and extensible as they grow. Learn more about our architectural philosophy in [software-architecture.md](src/Rules/1-software-architecture.md). ### How We Design Software Components [](#how-we-design-software-components) We follow a **business-centric design methodology** that starts with understanding the domain before writing code. Our systematic approach guides you through identifying business units, mapping information flows, modeling data architecture, and defining business rules that create value. This methodology ensures your software components genuinely reflect how the business operates, making them both maintainable and AI-friendly. Discover our complete design process in [design-methodology.md](src/Rules/2-design-methodology.md). ### What Guidelines We Cover [](#what-guidelines-we-cover) Through **real-world examples and data stories**, we implement three proven architectural approaches that work together to create robust Laravel applications. Each guideline is illustrated with practical scenarios that demonstrate both common problems and their solutions. See concrete implementations in [data-story.md](src/Rules/3-data-story.md). ### Supported Guidelines [](#supported-guidelines) GuidelinePurposeKey ConceptsDocumentation**[DDD](src/Rules/DDD/assumptions.md)**Domain modeling with Laravel pragmatismAggregates, Entities, Value Objects, Repositories, Domain Services[DDD Assumptions](src/Rules/DDD/assumptions.md)**[Clean Architecture](src/Rules/CLEAN/assumptions.md)**Layered separation of concernsRepresentation, Communication, Transformation, Orchestration, Interaction[Clean Assumptions](src/Rules/CLEAN/assumptions.md)**[SOLID](src/Rules/SOLID/assumptions.md)**Code smell prevention through proven principlesSRP, OCP, LSP, ISP, DIP with practical Laravel application[SOLID Assumptions](src/Rules/SOLID/assumptions.md)Installation ------------ [](#installation) [![Latest Version on Packagist](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/f4ba25d9699e53a738cd4c85160a484d6682a062a4b432f48243e5c68457808e/68747470733a2f2f696d672e736869656c64732e696f2f7061636b61676973742f762f6f707363616c652d636f2f7374726963742d72756c65732e7376673f7374796c653d666c61742d737175617265)](https://packagist.org/packages/opscale-co/strict-rules) You can install the package in to a Laravel project via composer: ``` composer require opscale-co/strict-rules --dev ``` Next up, you must create a `phpstan.neon` file in the root of your project with this content: ``` includes: - vendor/nunomaduro/larastan/extension.neon - vendor/opscale-co/strict-rules/rules.clean.neon - vendor/opscale-co/strict-rules/rules.ddd.neon - vendor/opscale-co/strict-rules/rules.smells.neon - vendor/opscale-co/strict-rules/rules.solid.neon parameters: level: 8 phpVersion: 80200 paths: - src ``` You are free to use only a subset of rules commenting the not needed guidelines. Usage ----- [](#usage) You can run the command vendor/bin/phpstan analyze to execute the rules.
