# Plugin Architecture Documentation

This document provides a comprehensive overview of the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin architecture, explaining its modular design and how the various components work together.

## Overview

The WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin is built using a modular architecture powered by the [Syde Modularity](https://github.com/inpsyde/modularity) framework. This design provides:

- **Modular Structure**: Each feature is contained within its own module with clear boundaries
- **Dependency Injection**: PSR-11 container for service management and dependency resolution
- **Feature Flags**: Dynamic module loading based on environment variables and filters
- **Extensibility**: Well-defined extension points for customization and enhancement
- **Maintainability**: Clear separation of concerns and consistent patterns

## Core Components

### Main Plugin File

The plugin initialization begins in `woocommerce-paypal-payments.php`, which:
- Loads the Composer autoloader if needed (e.g. may be already loaded in some tests)
- Contains plugin metadata and constants definitions
- It starts the bootstrap process, in `plugins_loaded` hook.

### Bootstrap System

The bootstrap process is handled by `bootstrap.php`, which:

```php
return function (
    string $root_dir,
    array $additional_containers = array(),
    array $additional_modules = array()
): ContainerInterface {
    // Load modules from modules.php
    $modules = ( require "$root_dir/modules.php" )( $root_dir );
    
    // Apply filters for customization
    $modules = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_paypal_payments_modules', $modules );
    
    // Initialize plugin with Syde Modularity
    $properties = PluginProperties::new( "$root_dir/woocommerce-paypal-payments.php" );
    $bootstrap = Package::new( $properties );
    
    foreach ( $modules as $module ) {
        $bootstrap->addModule( $module );
    }
    
    $bootstrap->boot();
    return $bootstrap->container();
};
```

### PPCP Container

The global `PPCP` class (`src/PPCP.php`) provides access to the dependency injection container:

```php
class PPCP {
    private static $container = null;
    
    public static function container(): ContainerInterface {
        if ( ! self::$container ) {
            throw new LogicException( 'No PPCP container, probably called too early when the plugin is not initialized yet.' );
        }
        return self::$container;
    }
}
```

This allows third-party access services easily, such as in `api/order-functions.php`.

## Module System

### Module Definition

Modules are defined in `modules.php` with both core and conditional modules:

```php
$modules = array(
    new PluginModule(),
    ( require "$modules_dir/woocommerce-logging/module.php" )(),
    ( require "$modules_dir/ppcp-admin-notices/module.php" )(),
    ( require "$modules_dir/ppcp-api-client/module.php" )(),
    // ... more core modules
);
```

### Feature-Flag Controlled Modules

Conditional modules are loaded based on environment variables and filters (`modules.php`):

```php
if ( apply_filters(
    'woocommerce.feature-flags.woocommerce_paypal_payments.applepay_enabled',
    getenv( 'PCP_APPLEPAY_ENABLED' ) !== '0'
) ) {
    $modules[] = ( require "$modules_dir/ppcp-applepay/module.php" )();
}
```

This pattern allows for:
- **Environment-based control**: Use `PCP_*_ENABLED` environment variables
- **Runtime filtering**: Apply WordPress filters to override defaults
- **Graceful degradation**: Missing features don't break core functionality

### Module Structure

Each module follows a consistent directory structure:

```
modules/ppcp-example/
├── module.php           # Module factory function
├── composer.json        # PHP dependencies
├── package.json         # JavaScript dependencies
├── webpack.config.js    # Asset building configuration
├── services.php         # Service definitions
├── extensions.php       # Service extensions/modifications
├── src/                 # PHP source code
│   └── ExampleModule.php
├── resources/          # Source assets
│   ├── js/
│   └── css/
└── assets/            # Built assets
    ├── js/
    └── css/
```

### Module Interface Implementation

Most modules implement the Syde Modularity interfaces. For example in `modules/ppcp-api-client/src/ApiModule.php`:

```php
class ApiModule implements ServiceModule, FactoryModule, ExtendingModule, ExecutableModule {
    use ModuleClassNameIdTrait;
    
    public function services(): array {
        return require __DIR__ . '/../services.php';
    }
    
    public function factories(): array {
        return require __DIR__ . '/../factories.php';
    }
    
    public function extensions(): array {
        return require __DIR__ . '/../extensions.php';
    }
    
    public function run( ContainerInterface $c ): bool {
        // Module initialization logic
        return true;
    }
}
```

## Key Modules

- **ppcp-local-alternative-payment-methods**: Regional payment options

## Dependency Injection & Services

### Service Definition

Services are defined in each module's `services.php` file using factory functions:

```php
return array(
    'example.service' => static function ( ContainerInterface $container ): ExampleService {
        return new ExampleService(
            $container->get( 'dependency.service' )
        );
    },
    
    'example.config' => static function (): array {
        return array(
            'setting' => 'value',
        );
    },
);
```

### Service Extensions

The `extensions.php` files allow modules to modify or extend existing services:

```php
return array(
    'existing.service' => static function ( ContainerInterface $container, ExistingService $service ): ExistingService {
        // Modify or wrap the existing service
        return new EnhancedService( $service );
    },
);
```

### Container Access Patterns

Services can be accessed in multiple ways:

```php
// In our modules/services/extensions (also often passed to hook handlers via `use`)
$service = $container->get( 'service.id' );

// In third-party plugins etc. (if not adding a custom module via the `woocommerce_paypal_payments_modules` filter) 
$service = PPCP::container()->get( 'service.id' );

// Check for service availability
if ( $container->has( 'optional.service' ) ) {
    $service = $container->get( 'optional.service' );
}
```

### Plugin Feature Definition

The plugin has different features that can be enabled or disabled depending on assertions such as:

```php
// WooCommerce country location. 
$container->get( 'api.shop.country' );

// PayPal merchant country location (notice this will fallback to WooCommerce country location if the user is not onboarded. 
$container->get( 'api.merchant.country' );

// Currency
$currency = $container->get( 'api.shop.currency.getter' );
$currency->get(); // USD

// PayPal API Feature flags 
$product_status = $container->get( 'applepay.apple-product-status' );
assert( $product_status instanceof AppleProductStatus );
$apple_pay_enabled = $product_status->is_active();

// Any other feature dependency. For instance, checking if own_brand_only is no enabled.
$is_enabled => $feature_is_enabled && ! $general_settings->own_brand_only(),
```

The `FeaturesDefinition.php` file is used to define these features so they can be used in other services.

For instance, they are used in places as:

- Endpoint serving the UI to know which features to show under the Features section under the Overview tab
- Define the TODO list in the UI Overview tab 

The features should be defined as public constants for easy access an prefixed as `FEATURE_`

```php
// Defining Pay with Crypto feature
public const FEATURE_PAY_WITH_CRYPTO = 'pwc';
```

The features have different fields and a status field (enabled/disabled)
```php
self::FEATURE_PAY_WITH_CRYPTO                 => array(
				'title'       => __( 'Pay with Crypto', 'woocommerce-paypal-payments' ),
				'description' => __( 'Enable customers to pay with cryptocurrency, and receive payments in USD in your PayPal balance.', 'woocommerce-paypal-payments' ),
				'enabled'     => $this->merchant_capabilities[ self::FEATURE_PAY_WITH_CRYPTO ],
				'buttons'     => array(
					array(
						'type'     => 'secondary',
						'text'     => __( 'Configure', 'woocommerce-paypal-payments' ),
						'action'   => array(
							'type'    => 'tab',
							'tab'     => 'payment_methods',
							'section' => 'ppcp-pay-with-crypto',
						),
						'showWhen' => 'enabled',
						'class'    => 'small-button',
					),
					array(
						'type'     => 'secondary',
						'text'     => __( 'Sign up', 'woocommerce-paypal-payments' ),
						'urls'     => array(
							'sandbox' => 'https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/bizsignup/add-product?product=CRYPTO_PYMTS',
							'live'    => 'https://www.paypal.com/bizsignup/add-product?product=CRYPTO_PYMTS',
						),
						'showWhen' => 'disabled',
						'class'    => 'small-button',
					),
					array(
						'type'  => 'tertiary',
						'text'  => __( 'Learn more', 'woocommerce-paypal-payments' ),
						'url'   => 'https://www.paypal.com/us/digital-wallet/manage-money/crypto',
						'class' => 'small-button',
					),
				),
			),
```

There is a hook named `woocommerce_paypal_payments_rest_common_merchant_features` 
allowing to define which features are enabled or disabled:

```php
// Enable Google Pay Feature
add_filter(
			'woocommerce_paypal_payments_rest_common_merchant_features',
			function ( array $features ) use ( $container ): array {
				$product_status = $container->get( 'googlepay.helpers.apm-product-status' );
				assert( $product_status instanceof ApmProductStatus );
				$google_pay_enabled = $product_status->is_active();

				$features[ FeaturesDefinition::FEATURE_GOOGLE_PAY ] = array(
					'enabled' => $google_pay_enabled,
				);

				return $features;
			}
		);
```

The FeaturesDefinition class is initialized in ```settings.data.definition.features```

Another important part of the Features is the `FeaturesEligibilityService.php`

This service defines different callbacks to check if a feature is eligible for the merchant 
in runtime.

When using `FeaturesDefinition::get()` the plugin will run the registered eligibility callbacks
checks for each Feature. The plugin will unset those Features without check or returning false in the eligibility check. 


### Payment Method Definition

Besides PayPal itself, we have different Payment methods such as Apple Pay, Pay with Crypto...etc.

These methods are defined in `PaymentMethodsDefinition.php` and they are divided in several groups:

**PayPal methods**

- PayPal
- Venmo
- PayPal PayLater. 
- CardButtonGateway. Only in Own Brand Mode. It allows the user to pay with card  even if the customer doesn't have a PayPal account.

Filterable via `woocommerce_paypal_payments_gateway_group_paypal` hook.

**Card Methods**

- Advanced Credit and Debit Card Payments
- Fastlane by PayPal
- Apple Pay
- Google Pay

Filterable via `woocommerce_paypal_payments_gateway_group_cards` hook.

**Alternative Payment Methods**

- Pay with Crypto
- Bancontact
- Blik
- EPS
- iDeal
- MyBank
- Przelewy24
- Trustly
- Multibanco
- Pay upon Invoice
- OXXO

Filterable via `woocommerce_paypal_payments_gateway_group_apm` hook.

As in FeaturesDefinition, Payment Methods has also an eligibility service. 
This service is defined in `PaymentMethodsEligibilityService.php` 

It creates different callbacks that unset the Payment methods based on the eligibility checks:

```php
public function get_eligibility_checks(): array {
		return array(
			BancontactGateway::ID     => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			BlikGateway::ID           => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			EPSGateway::ID            => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			IDealGateway::ID          => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			MyBankGateway::ID         => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			P24Gateway::ID            => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			TrustlyGateway::ID        => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			MultibancoGateway::ID     => fn() => ! $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			OXXO::ID                  => fn() => $this->is_mexico_merchant() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			PWCGateway::ID            => fn() => $this->has_pwc_capability() && $this->is_apm_eligible,
			PayUponInvoiceGateway::ID => fn() => $this->merchant_country === 'DE',
			CreditCardGateway::ID     => fn() => $this->is_mexico_merchant() || $this->is_card_fields_supported(),
			CardButtonGateway::ID     => fn() => $this->is_mexico_merchant() || ! $this->is_card_fields_supported(),
			GooglePayGateway::ID      => fn() => $this->google_pay_available,
			ApplePayGateway::ID       => fn() => $this->apple_pay_available,
			AxoGateway::ID            => fn() => $this->dcc_product_status->is_active() && call_user_func( $this->axo_eligible ),
			'venmo'                   => fn() => $this->merchant_country === 'US',
		);
	}
```

## Asset Management

### Webpack Configuration

Each module with JavaScript assets includes a `webpack.config.js`:

```javascript
const path = require('path');
const defaultConfig = require('@wordpress/scripts/config/webpack.config');

module.exports = {
    ...defaultConfig,
    entry: {
        'boot': path.resolve(process.cwd(), 'resources/js', 'boot.js'),
    },
    output: {
        path: path.resolve(process.cwd(), 'assets/js'),
        filename: '[name].js',
    },
};
```

### Build Process

Assets are built using the shared configuration:

- **Individual builds**: `npm run build:modules:ppcp-{module-name}`
- **Watch mode**: `npm run watch:modules:ppcp-{module-name}` or `npm run watch:modules` (all modules)
- **All modules**: `npm run build:modules` (parallel builds)

### Asset Registration

Built assets are registered through module services and enqueued conditionally:

```php
'asset.example-script' => static function( ContainerInterface $container ): Asset {
    return new Asset(
        'example-script',
        plugin_dir_url( __DIR__ ) . 'assets/js/example.js',
        array( 'wp-element' ), // dependencies
        '1.0.0'
    );
},
```

## Extension Points

### WordPress Hooks

The plugin provides numerous action and filter hooks:

```php
// Allow modification of order request data
apply_filters( 'ppcp_create_order_request_body_data', $data );

// PayPal order creation notification
do_action( 'woocommerce_paypal_payments_paypal_order_created', $order );

// API cache clearing
do_action( 'woocommerce_paypal_payments_flush_api_cache' );
```

### Module Filters

Modules can be modified via filters:

```php
// Add or remove modules
$modules = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_paypal_payments_modules', $modules );

// Feature flag overrides
apply_filters( 'woocommerce.feature-flags.woocommerce_paypal_payments.applepay_enabled', $default );
```
