# PHP Code Style Rules

## PHP Version

The project supports PHP 7.4+

## PSR Standards

- **PSR-1**: Basic Coding Standard
- **PSR-4**: Autoloading Standard
- **PSR-12**: Extended Coding Style

## Code Style

### Type Declarations

```php
// ✅ Correct – strict typing
public function getCustomers(Request $request): JsonResponse
{
    $id = (int) $request->get('id');
    return new JsonResponse(['data' => $customers]);
}

// ❌ Incorrect – no types
public function getCustomers($request)
{
    return ['data' => $customers];
}
```

### Nullable Types

```php
// ✅ Correct
public function findById(?int $id): ?array
{
    if ($id === null) {
        return null;
    }
    return $this->query->where('id', '=', $id)->firstOrNull();
}
```

### Strict Types

Always use `declare(strict_types=1);`:

```php
<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Services;
```

### Array Syntax

```php
// ✅ Preferred – short syntax
$array = ['key' => 'value'];

// ❌ Do not use
$array = array('key' => 'value');
```

### String Interpolation

```php
// ✅ Preferred
$message = "User {$userId} not found";

// ✅ Alternative
$message = sprintf('User %d not found', $userId);
```

### Arrow Functions (PHP 7.4+)

```php
// ✅ For simple operations
$filtered = array_filter($items, fn($item) => $item->isActive());

// ❌ For complex logic – use regular functions
```

### Nullsafe Operator (PHP 8.0+)

```php
// ✅ For PHP 7.4
$name = $user && $user->profile ? $user->profile->name : null;
```

## Naming Conventions

### Classes

```php
// ✅ PascalCase
class TelegramCustomerService {}
class UserRepository {}
```

### Methods

```php
// ✅ camelCase
public function getCustomers(): array {}
public function saveOrUpdate(array $data): array {}
```

### Variables

```php
// ✅ camelCase
$customerData = [];
$totalRecords = 0;
```

### Constants

```php
// ✅ UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
private const MAX_RETRIES = 3;
public const DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE = 20;
```

### Private Properties

```php
// ✅ camelCase with visibility modifier
private string $tableName;
private Builder $builder;
```

## Documentation

### PHPDoc

```php
/**
 * @throws ValidationException If parameters are invalid
 */
public function getCustomers(Request $request): JsonResponse
{
    // ...
}
```

### Inline Comments

```php
// ✅ Useful comments
// Apply filters to calculate total number of records
$countQuery = $this->buildCountQuery($filters);

// ❌ Obvious comments
// Get data
$data = $this->getData();
```

## Error Handling

### Exceptions

```php
// ✅ Specific exceptions
if (!$userId) {
    throw new InvalidArgumentException('User ID is required');
}

// ✅ Logging
try {
    $result = $this->service->process();
} catch (Exception $e) {
    $this->logger->error('Processing failed', [
        'exception' => $e,
        'context' => $context,
    ]);
    throw new ProcessingException('Failed to process', 0, $e);
}
```

## Query Builder Usage

### Always Use Query Builder

```php
// ✅ Correct
$customers = $this->builder->newQuery()
    ->select(['id', 'name', 'email'])
    ->from('acmeshop_customers')
    ->where('status', '=', 'active')
    ->orderBy('created_at', 'DESC')
    ->get();

// In edge cases raw SQL may be used
$result = $this->database->query("SELECT * FROM acmeshop_customers");
```

### Parameter Binding

```php
// ✅ Query Builder automatically binds parameters
$query->where('name', 'LIKE', "%{$search}%");

// ❌ Never concatenate values into SQL, avoid SQL Injection.
```

## Array Access

### Safe Array Access

```php
// ✅ Use Arr::get()
use Acme\ECommerceFramework\Support\Arr;

$value = Arr::get($data, 'key', 'default');

// ❌ Unsafe
$value = $data['key']; // may trigger an error
```

## Return Types

```php
// ✅ Always specify return type
public function getData(): array {}
public function findById(int $id): ?array {}
public function process(): void {}

// ❌ Without type
public function getData() {}
```

## Visibility Modifiers

```php
// ✅ Always specify visibility modifier
private string $tableName;
protected Builder $builder;
public function getData(): array {}
```
