# Phase 4 Plan 01: Authors + Newsletter Repositories Summary

**Domain repositories for Authors (5 methods) and Newsletter (14 methods) with wrapper delegation and globals-to-parameters pattern.**

## Performance

| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Duration | ~2min |
| Tasks | 2 completed (delegated) |
| Files created | 2 |
| Files modified | 4 |

## Acceptance Criteria Results

| Criterion | Status | Notes |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| AC-1: AuthorsRepository exists with all methods | Pass | 5 methods, 156 lines |
| AC-2: NewsletterRepository exists with all methods | Pass | 14 methods, 281 lines |
| AC-3: Legacy admin factories delegate to repositories | Pass | 11 static methods → wrappers |
| AC-4: Legacy front factories delegate to repositories | Pass | 8 static methods → wrappers, globals passed as params |

## Accomplishments

- Created AuthorsRepository with simpleList, authorDetails, authorSave, authorDelete, authorByLang
- Created NewsletterRepository with full subscriber lifecycle + template CRUD + sending
- Established globals-to-parameters pattern for methods needing $settings/$lang

## Files Created/Modified

| File | Change | Purpose |
|------|--------|---------|
| `autoload/Domain/Authors/AuthorsRepository.php` | Created | Domain repository for authors CRUD + cached front read |
| `autoload/Domain/Newsletter/NewsletterRepository.php` | Created | Domain repository for newsletter subscriber lifecycle, templates, sending |
| `autoload/admin/factory/class.Authors.php` | Modified | Wrapper: 4 methods delegate to AuthorsRepository |
| `autoload/admin/factory/class.Newsletter.php` | Modified | Wrapper: 7 methods delegate to NewsletterRepository |
| `autoload/front/factory/class.Authors.php` | Modified | Wrapper: 1 method delegates |
| `autoload/front/factory/class.Newsletter.php` | Modified | Wrapper: 7 methods delegate, passing $settings/$lang |

## Decisions Made

| Decision | Rationale | Impact |
|----------|-----------|--------|
| Globals as parameters for newsletterSend/signin | Repos should not depend on globals | Front wrappers pass $settings, $lang explicitly |
| Preserve original cache key for authorByLang | Backward compatibility with existing cache | Cache key "get_single_author:$id" without langId |

## Deviations from Plan

None — plan executed exactly as written.

## Issues Encountered

None.

## Next Phase Readiness

**Ready:**
- Domain\Authors and Domain\Newsletter available for Admin controllers (Phases 10, 11)
- All Domain repos for phases 3-4 complete

**Concerns:**
- None

**Blockers:**
- None
