SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps organize and orchestrate business logic in Laravel by using Actions, Events, Jobs and Observers to separate concerns and improve testability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Actions & DTOs: Encapsulate business rules in actionable, typed objects that can be reused across controllers, jobs and events.
  • Event-Driven Workflows: Use Events + Listeners to trigger side effects and integrate with model lifecycle via Observers.
  • Background Processing: Dispatch Jobs for long-running tasks to keep requests responsive.
  • Guidance & Best Practices: Follow structured patterns for maintainability and scalability in Laravel projects.

Quick Start

Create a new action with Laravel Actions and wire it to an event, then enqueue a job for asynchronous processing.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate business logic in Laravel using actions and events?

You orchestrate Laravel business logic by encapsulating rules in typed Action objects, triggering side effects with Events, and dispatching Jobs for background processing to separate concerns and improve testability.

What is the best way to structure Laravel events, jobs, and observers for maintainability?

Structuring Laravel events, jobs, and observers requires encapsulating business rules in actionable typed objects, using model lifecycle hooks for integration, and dispatching long-running tasks to queues for scalability.

Do I need PHP 8.2 and Laravel 11 to use actions with value objects?

Yes, using actions with strongly typed Value Objects requires PHP 8.2+ and Laravel 11+ to support the event-driven workflows and cross-module coordination patterns properly.

Can I use Laravel actions and DTOs for background processing and queueing?

Yes, you can dispatch Jobs from Actions for background processing to keep requests responsive, while using DTOs to enforce strong typing across controllers, jobs, and events.

When should I use Laravel observers versus event listeners for model lifecycle workflows?

Use Laravel Observers for direct model lifecycle hooks and integration, and use Events with Listeners for event-driven workflows when triggering decoupled side effects across modules.

Why does separating business logic into Laravel actions improve testability?

Separating business logic into Laravel actions improves testability by isolating rules in reusable, strongly typed objects that can be tested independently from controllers, jobs, and events.
