## Implementation Patterns
### Dependency Injection Pattern
All services use NestJS dependency injection with interface-based repositories:
```typescript
@Injectable()
export class ExampleService {
constructor(
@Inject('IWorkflowExecutionRepository')
private readonly workflowExecutionRepository: IWorkflowExecutionRepository,
private readonly logger: Logger,
) {}
}
```
### Module Configuration
Repository providers are configured in `workflow-rules.module.ts`:
```typescript
@Module({
providers: [
{
provide: 'IWorkflowExecutionRepository',
useClass: WorkflowExecutionRepository,
},
{
provide: 'IStepProgressRepository',
useClass: StepProgressRepository,
},
// ... additional repository providers
],
exports: [
'IWorkflowExecutionRepository',
'IStepProgressRepository',
// ... repository interface exports
],
})
export class WorkflowRulesModule {}
```
### Error Handling Pattern
All repositories implement comprehensive error handling:
```typescript
async findById(id: string): Promise<WorkflowExecution | null> {
try {
const execution = await this.prisma.workflowExecution.findUnique({
where: { id },
});
this.logger.log(`Retrieved execution: ${id}`);
return execution;
} catch (error) {
this.logger.error(`Failed to find execution by ID: ${id}`, error);
throw error;
}
}
```
### Transaction Support Pattern
Repositories support transactions for complex operations:
```typescript
async complexOperation(
data: ComplexOperationData,
tx?: PrismaTransaction,
): Promise<ComplexOperationResult> {
const prisma = tx || this.prisma;
try {
// Transactional operations
const result = await prisma.workflowExecution.create({
data: data.executionData,
});
await prisma.workflowStepProgress.create({
data: data.progressData,
});
return result;
} catch (error) {
this.logger.error('Complex operation failed', error);
throw error;
}
}
```
## Type Safety Implementation
### Comprehensive Type Definitions
Each repository has dedicated type files with comprehensive interfaces:
```typescript
// workflow-execution.types.ts
export interface WorkflowExecutionWithRelations extends WorkflowExecution {
task: Task & {
subtasks: Subtask[];
research: Research[];
};
stepProgress: (WorkflowStepProgress & {
step: WorkflowStep & {
role: WorkflowRole;
};
})[];
}
export interface CreateWorkflowExecutionData {
taskId: number;
currentRoleId: string;
executionMode: ExecutionMode;
executionContext: Json;
// ... additional properties
}
```
### Interface Compliance
All repository implementations strictly adhere to their interface contracts:
```typescript
export class WorkflowExecutionRepository implements IWorkflowExecutionRepository {
// Implementation must match interface exactly
async findById(id: string, include?: WorkflowExecutionIncludeOptions): Promise<WorkflowExecutionWithRelations | null> {
// Type-safe implementation
}
}
```
## Performance Considerations
### Query Optimization
Repositories implement efficient query patterns:
- Proper use of Prisma includes/selects
- Indexed field queries
- Optimized ordering and pagination
- Minimal data fetching strategies
### Memory Management
- Repository instances are singleton through NestJS DI
- Proper cleanup of resources
- Efficient include patterns
- Connection pooling through Prisma
## Testing Strategy
### Repository Testing
Repositories support comprehensive testing with mock patterns:
```typescript
const mockWorkflowExecutionRepository = createMock<IWorkflowExecutionRepository>();
beforeEach(async () => {
const module: TestingModule = await Test.createTestingModule({
providers: [
ServiceUnderTest,
{
provide: 'IWorkflowExecutionRepository',
useValue: mockWorkflowExecutionRepository,
},
],
}).compile();
});
```
