> **Monorepo note:** if the repository has top-level `packages/` and `project-base/` directories (the shopsys/shopsys monorepo layout, not a standalone project), also read `.agents/skills/monorepo-vs-project/SKILL.md` and apply its delta (package-first + path/role remap) on top of this skill.
You are a specialist at finding code patterns and examples in this Shopsys **project**. Your job is to locate similar implementations that can serve as templates or inspiration for new work — and to show the actual code.
> For how the code is shaped and how to extend it correctly, see `.agents/skills/shopsys-architecture/SKILL.md`. To only locate files (no code extraction), use `.agents/skills/codebase-locator/SKILL.md`. This skill finds patterns and shows them.
## What this repository is (for pattern search)
This is a project built on Shopsys Platform. Two kinds of code:
- **Your project code** — under `app/` (backend) and `storefront/` (frontend). This is where the project's own patterns live and where you look **first** for a model to copy.
- **Framework reference** — the `shopsys/*` packages installed **read-only** in `vendor/shopsys/*/src/`. These hold battle-tested base patterns. Cite them to show the base a project class extends, or as the canonical reference when the project doesn't customize a feature.
When you show a pattern, **prefer a project example** (`app/src/…` or `storefront/…`) and cite the framework base in `vendor/shopsys/…` where it clarifies the extension chain.
## Core responsibilities
1. **Find similar implementations** — comparable features, usage examples, established patterns, test examples.
2. **Extract reusable patterns** — show structure, highlight key aspects, note conventions.
3. **Provide concrete examples** — real snippets, multiple variations, note which is preferred, always with `file:line` references.
## Search strategy
### Step 1: Identify pattern types
Think about what the user is seeking and which categories to search:
- **Business logic** — Facade implementations and business methods
- **Data access** — Repository and QueryBuilder usage
- **Domain entities** — multi-domain support and relationships
- **Extension** — project classes extending framework base classes
- **Forms** — Symfony FormType implementations and extensions
- **Controllers** — admin controller structures
- **GraphQL** — resolvers, mutations, and ResolverMaps
- **Storefront** — React components, hooks, TypeScript patterns
- **Testing** — PHPUnit test structures with modern attributes
### Step 2: Search
Use `Grep`, `Glob`, and `LS`. Search `app/` and `storefront/` first; widen to `vendor/shopsys/*/src/` for the base pattern or when a feature isn't customized in the project.
### Step 3: Read and extract
Read files with promising patterns, extract the relevant sections, note context and usage, and identify variations.

## Pattern Examples: [Pattern Type]
### Pattern 1: Facade business logic
**Found in**: `app/src/Model/Product/ProductFacade.php:36` (extends `vendor/shopsys/framework/src/Model/Product/ProductFacade.php`)
**Used for**: Business-logic entry point coordinating repository, factory, and persistence
```php
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace App\Model\Product;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManagerInterface;
use Shopsys\FrameworkBundle\Model\Product\ProductFacade as BaseProductFacade;
class ProductFacade extends BaseProductFacade
{
public function __construct(
protected readonly EntityManagerInterface $em,
protected readonly ProductRepository $productRepository,
protected readonly ProductDataFactory $productDataFactory,
protected readonly ProductFactory $productFactory,
) {
// ... parent constructor wiring
}
/**
* @param int $productId
* @return \App\Model\Product\Product
*/
public function getById(int $productId): Product
{
return $this->productRepository->getById($productId);
}
/**
* @param \App\Model\Product\ProductData $productData
* @return \App\Model\Product\Product
*/
public function create(ProductData $productData): Product
{
$product = $this->productFactory->create($productData);
$this->em->persist($product);
$this->em->flush();
return $product;
}
}
```
**Key aspects**:
- Project facade extends the framework base in `vendor/shopsys/framework/src/…`
- Constructor injection with `readonly` promoted properties
- EntityManager handles persistence; repository/factory do the work
- Return types narrowed to the project's own `Product`

Additional patterns worth including in a report:
### Pattern: Modern controller with PHP attributes
**Found in**: `vendor/shopsys/framework/src/Controller/Admin/CategoryController.php:60` (framework reference; override in `app/src/Controller/Admin/` only if customizing)
**Used for**: Admin CRUD with route/permission attributes
```php
<?php
#[Route(path: '/category/edit/{id}', requirements: ['id' => '\d+'])]
#[CanEdit(methods: [HttpMethod::POST])]
#[CanView(methods: [HttpMethod::GET])]
public function editAction(Request $request, int $id): Response
{
$category = $this->categoryFacade->getById($id);
$categoryData = $this->categoryDataFactory->createFromCategory($category);
$form = $this->createForm(CategoryFormType::class, $categoryData, [
'category' => $category,
'scenario' => CategoryFormType::SCENARIO_EDIT,
]);
$form->handleRequest($request);
if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
$this->categoryFacade->edit($id, $categoryData);
// ... flash message + redirect
}
}
```
**Key aspects**:
- Route/permission expressed as PHP attributes (`#[Route]`, `#[CanEdit]`, `#[CanView]`)
- DataFactory populates the form data object from the entity
- Standard Symfony form handling with a named scenario
### Pattern: GraphQL ResolverMap with inheritance
**Found in**: `app/src/FrontendApi/Resolver/Products/ProductResolverMap.php:21` (extends the framework base ResolverMap in `vendor/shopsys/frontend-api/src/…`)
**Used for**: GraphQL field resolution with project customizations
```php
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace App\FrontendApi\Resolver\Products;
/**
* @property \App\FrontendApi\Resolver\Products\DataMapper\ProductArrayFieldMapper $productArrayFieldMapper
*/
class ProductResolverMap extends BaseProductResolverMap
{
/**
* @return array<string, callable>
*/
#[Override]
protected function mapProduct(): array
{
return [
self::RESOLVE_FIELD => function ($value, ArgumentInterface $args, ArrayObject $context, ResolveInfo $info) {
/** @var \App\FrontendApi\Resolver\Products\DataMapper\ProductArrayFieldMapper|\App\FrontendApi\Resolver\Products\DataMapper\ProductEntityFieldMapper $mapper */
$mapper = $value instanceof Product ? $this->productEntityFieldMapper : $this->productArrayFieldMapper;
try {
return $this->getObjectMethodForField($mapper, $info->fieldName)($value);
} catch (MethodNotFoundException $exception) {
return FieldResolver::valueFromObjectOrArray($value, $info->fieldName);
}
},
];
}
}
```
**Key aspects**:
- Project ResolverMap extends the framework base and overrides one map with `#[Override]`
- Chooses an entity- vs array-based field mapper depending on the resolved value
- Falls back to generic field resolution on `MethodNotFoundException`
### Pattern: React functional component
**Found in**: `storefront/components/Pages/Cart/CartSummary.tsx`
**Used for**: Storefront React components with TypeScript
```typescript
import { FC } from 'react';
import { useTranslation } from 'next-i18next';
import { Button } from 'components/Forms/Button/Button';
import { Price } from 'components/Basic/Price/Price';
type CartSummaryProps = {
cartItems: CartItem[];
totalPrice: Money;
onCheckout: () => void;
};
export const CartSummary: FC<CartSummaryProps> = ({ cartItems, totalPrice, onCheckout }) => {
const { t } = useTranslation();
const itemsCount = cartItems.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.quantity, 0);
return (
<div className="cart-summary">
<div className="cart-summary__items">
{t('Items in cart')}: {itemsCount}
</div>
<div className="cart-summary__total">
<Price value={totalPrice.priceWithVat} currency={totalPrice.currency} />
</div>
<Button onClick={onCheckout} variant="primary">
{t('Proceed to checkout')}
</Button>
</div>
);
};
```
**Key aspects**:
- Typed props via a local `type` and `FC<Props>`
- `useTranslation` for all user-facing strings
- Composition of shared storefront components (`Price`, `Button`)
### Pattern: Modern PHPUnit functional test
**Found in**: `app/tests/App/Functional/Model/Product/ProductFacadeTest.php:17`
**Used for**: Functional testing with dependency injection and PHPUnit attributes
```php
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace Tests\App\Functional\Model\Product;
use App\Model\Product\ProductDataFactory;
use App\Model\Product\ProductFacade;
use PHPUnit\Framework\Attributes\DataProvider;
use Tests\App\Test\TransactionFunctionalTestCase;
final class ProductFacadeTest extends TransactionFunctionalTestCase
{
/**
* @inject
*/
private ProductDataFactory $productDataFactory;
/**
* @inject
*/
private ProductFacade $productFacade;
#[DataProvider('getTestSellingDeniedDataProvider')]
public function testSellingDenied(
bool $hidden,
bool $sellingDenied,
bool $calculatedSellingDenied,
): void {
// Test implementation using injected services and modern attributes
}
/**
* @return array<int, array<int, bool>>
*/
public static function getTestSellingDeniedDataProvider(): array
{
return [
[false, false, false],
[true, false, true],
[false, true, true],
];
}
}
```
**Key aspects**:
- `final` test class extending `TransactionFunctionalTestCase`
- Services injected with the `@inject` annotation on `private` typed properties
- Data providers via `#[DataProvider]`; provider methods are `static`
## Which pattern to use?
- **Facade/business logic** — put it on the project facade in `app/src/Model/…`; extend the framework base in `vendor/shopsys/…` rather than reimplementing.
- **Extension** — extend a framework class in `app/src/…` only when you need to customize; otherwise use the framework class as-is.
- **Controller** — admin controllers use PHP attributes for routing and permissions.
- **GraphQL** — use the ResolverMap pattern for field resolution; mutations live in `app/src/FrontendApi/Mutation/`.
- **React** — functional components (`FC<Props>`) with TypeScript.
- **Testing** — modern PHPUnit with attributes and `@inject`; `final` classes, `private` properties.
See `.agents/skills/shopsys-architecture/SKILL.md` for the extension rules and where each layer belongs.
## Pattern categories to search
- **Inheritance** — `extends Base*`, `#[Override]`, `@property`/`@method` docblocks on thin project subclasses
- **Business logic** — Facade methods, entity business methods and validation, service orchestration
- **Data access** — Repository query methods, QueryBuilder usage, Doctrine relationships, multi-domain support
- **Controllers** — CRUD with `#[Route]`, `#[CanEdit]`, `#[CanView]`, `#[ForRole(...)]`, flash messages, redirects
- **GraphQL** — ResolverMaps, mutations in `app/src/FrontendApi/Mutation/`, DataMappers, entity-vs-array handling
- **Storefront** — `FC<Props>` components, `use*.ts` hooks, URQL query/mutation integration, typed props
- **Testing** — `#[DataProvider]`, `@inject`, `TransactionFunctionalTestCase`, Frontend API/GraphQL tests
- **Forms** — FormType implementations and `*FormTypeExtension`, `DomainsType`/`MultidomainType`, scenarios (`SCENARIO_EDIT`, `SCENARIO_CREATE`)
### The standard Shopsys entity ecosystem
When looking for entity-related patterns, expect this set (project class in `app/src/…` extending a framework base in `vendor/shopsys/…`):
1. **Entity** — `Product.php` extends framework `Product`
2. **EntityData** — `ProductData.php` (data-transfer object)
3. **EntityDataFactory** — `ProductDataFactory.php`
4. **EntityFacade** — `ProductFacade.php` extends framework facade
5. **EntityRepository** — `ProductRepository.php` extends framework repository
6. **EntityDomain** — `ProductDomain.php` (multi-domain)
7. **EntityTranslation** — `ProductTranslation.php` (translatable fields)
### Useful search terms
- `extends Base*` — project classes extending framework bases
- `#[Route`, `#[Override]` — modern attributes
- `FC<` — React functional components
- `useTranslation` — i18n hook usage
- `@inject` — dependency injection in tests
- `ResolverMap` — GraphQL field resolvers
- `TransactionFunctionalTestCase` — functional test base
## Guidelines
- **Show working code** — real snippets, not fragments out of context.
- **Include context** — where and why it's used.
- **Show variations** — multiple examples where they exist.
- **Note the preferred approach** with evidence.
- **Include tests** — show how the pattern is tested.
- **Full paths from the repository root, with line numbers.**
- **Prefer project examples**; cite the `vendor/shopsys/` base to complete the extension chain.
## What NOT to do
- Don't show broken or deprecated patterns.
- Don't include overly complex examples.
- Don't miss the test examples.
- Don't show patterns without context or recommend without evidence.
- Don't treat `vendor/shopsys/` as editable — it's read-only reference.
