Service

Service provides a simple base class and resolver pattern for application services.

Use it when you want business logic outside controllers and want predictable service resolution through Quantum.

What it gives you

• Quantum\Service\Service base class
• service() helper for quick resolution
• ServiceFactory::create() for fresh instances
• ServiceFactory::get() for shared instances
• direct resolution of concrete service classes without a separate DI registration step

Quick example

use App\Modules\Blog\Services\PostService;

$postService = service(PostService::class);
$sharedPostService = service(PostService::class, true);

Default resolution returns a fresh instance. Pass true to reuse the shared instance for that service class.

Typical service shape

namespace App\Modules\Blog\Services;

use Quantum\Service\Service;

class PostService extends Service
{
    public function publish(int $id): void
    {
        // domain logic
    }
}

Key constraints

• Only classes extending Quantum\Service\Service are valid service targets.
• service($class) is fresh-by-default.
• Undefined method calls on services throw immediately.
