tomevault-io Create Class
Rule (Key Design Patterns)
When creating a new class:
- The class must represent a real-world entity or concept (noun).
- The constructor must encapsulate the entity’s coordinates: store the properties or underlying object the class uses to refer to that entity.
- The class must encapsulate all logic required to produce its result; do not rely on pre-calculated data from callers if it can be derived from dependencies.
Quick Checks
- Class name is a noun, not “-er/-or/-service/-manager”.
- Constructor captures the underlying object/properties that identify the entity.
- Callers pass minimal inputs; the class derives the rest from its dependencies.
