# CLAUDE.md This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository. ## Project Overview **Tijd voor de test** is a PHP/Symfony 8.1 application for managing quizzes in the style of **Wie is de Mol?** (WIDM) — a Dutch TV show where contestants try to identify a saboteur ("de Mol") among them. At the end of each episode, participants take a quiz about the Mol's identity and actions; the candidate with the least correct answers is eliminated. This app replicates that quiz format with: - Test creation with variable question counts - Season management with active test controls - Candidate answer tracking with automatic timing - Elimination tracking with joker adjustments - Backoffice management for quiz administration and statistics Tech Stack: - **Framework**: Symfony 8.1 - **PHP**: 8.5+ - **Database**: PostgreSQL 16 - **ORM**: Doctrine - **Server**: FrankenPHP with Caddy - **Container**: Docker Compose - **Frontend**: Twig templates with SASS (via asset mapper) - **Testing**: PHPUnit 13 with DAMA Doctrine test bundle ## Build & Development Commands All commands assume Docker is running. The project uses a [Justfile](https://just.systems) as the primary interface. ### Essential Commands ```bash just up # Start Docker services (PHP, PostgreSQL) just stop # Stop services just down # Stop and remove containers/orphans just shell # Interactive shell inside the PHP container just shell-run # Shell in a fresh one-off container ``` ### Database ```bash just migrate # Run Doctrine migrations (starts services first) just fixtures # Load dev fixtures (truncates first) just reload-tests # Drop/recreate test DB, migrate, load test fixtures ``` ### Testing ```bash just test # Run full PHPUnit suite just test tests/Path/To/TestFile.php # Run a specific test file just test --coverage-html var/coverage # Generate HTML coverage report ``` ### Code Quality & Linting ```bash just fix-cs # Auto-fix PHP-CS-Fixer + Twig-CS-Fixer just phpstan # PHPStan static analysis (level 9) just phpstan --no-progress # Without progress output just rector # Apply Rector modernizations just rector --dry-run # Preview Rector changes ``` ### Other ```bash just translations # Extract/update nl translation strings just clean # Nuke containers (volumes) + all generated files (prompts for confirmation) just trust-cert # Trust the local Caddy TLS certificate (macOS) just exec # Run any command inside the PHP container ``` All code quality checks run in CI/CD (.github/workflows/ci.yml) and should pass before merging. ## Project Structure ``` src/ Controller/ # HTTP request handlers (attribute-routed) Backoffice/ # Admin panel controllers Entity/ # Doctrine ORM entities Repository/ # Database queries Service/ # Business logic Command/ # CLI commands Form/ # Symfony form types Dto/ # Data transfer objects Enum/ # Enumerations (FlashType, etc.) Exception/ # Custom exceptions Factory/ # Object factories Helpers/ # Utility functions Security/ # Auth and voter classes Voter/ # Authorization voters DataFixtures/ # Test data loaders config/ packages/ # Symfony bundle configurations routes/ # Route definitions services.yaml # Service container configuration routes.yaml # Main route entry point templates/ backoffice/ # Admin UI templates quiz/ # Public quiz UI templates base.html.twig # Main layout tests/ Command/ # Command tests Controller/ # Controller/integration tests Repository/ # Repository tests Security/ # Auth tests Helpers/ # Utility tests bootstrap.php # PHPUnit bootstrap with test container setup ``` ## Core Domain Entities - **Season**: Groups quizzes and candidates for a specific period, with a linked `SeasonSettings`. - **Quiz**: A test within a season containing multiple `Question`s, each with multiple `Answer`s. - **Candidate**: A participant in the season. - **QuizCandidate**: Represents a candidate's attempt at a specific quiz (tracks start/end time). - **GivenAnswer**: The specific answer a candidate selected during a quiz. - **Elimination**: Records red/green screens and forced results with joker adjustments. - **User**: Administrative accounts for managing the system. ## Domain Context: "De Test" (Wie is de Mol) **Wie is de Mol?** (WIDM) is a Dutch reality competition: a group of contestants ("kandidaten") travels together while one of them, "de Mol", secretly sabotages assignments. Each episode ends with the fixed line: *"Tijd voor de test. Twintig vragen over de identiteit en het doen en laten van de Mol. Degene die het minst weet, ligt uit het spel. Behalve de Mol. Die hoeft nooit naar huis."* ("Time for the test. Twenty questions about the identity and the actions of the Mol. Whoever knows the least is out of the game. Except the Mol — they never have to go home.") The contestant with the worst score is eliminated ("afvallen"); the Mol is immune regardless of score, since they already know the answers. This app is a generic engine for running that quiz format for private/fan seasons, not just modeling the TV show incidentally — the entity model below exists specifically to reproduce WIDM's test mechanics. ### What a test's 20 questions actually are Per the intro line, questions fall into two factual categories — never opinion ("who would you vote off") — plus a third recurring format used on the show: 1. **Identity of the Mol**: guessing which contestant is the Mol. 2. **The Mol's actions**: what the Mol did or where the Mol was during a specific assignment/moment. 3. **Candidate self-answered questions**: earlier, every contestant privately answered a question about themselves (an interview-style question); the test then asks other contestants to guess what a *specific* candidate answered about themselves. This tests how well contestants know each other, not just Mol-tracking. ### Why answers can be bound to candidates All three categories above can have contestants themselves as the answer options rather than free text: "who is the Mol" and "who did X" both need contestant names as options, and "what did candidate Y answer" needs Y's own submitted answer among the options. In the domain model this is `Answer::$candidates` (a `ManyToMany` to `Candidate`, on both sides): an answer option can *be* another contestant, not just text. Because the relationship is many-to-many on the answer side too, a single answer option can cover **more than one candidate at once** — e.g. "Anna en Bram" as one option for "who missed the assignment together", or an option representing everyone who gave a particular self-answer in category 3 above. So a candidate-bound answer isn't always one candidate, it can be a group; treat `Answer::$candidates` as "the set of contestants this option represents", not as a single foreign key. Combined with `GivenAnswer::$candidate` (who answered), every given answer on a candidate-bound question is a directed relationship from the answering candidate to *every* candidate covered by the chosen option — a one-to-many edge when the option is a group, not just candidate A pointed at candidate B. This is the mechanic behind any "who's suspected of what" or sociogram-style statistic — it only applies to candidate-bound questions, plain trivia questions have no such relationship. `Quiz::getQuestionErrors()` already relies on this distinction to validate that every active candidate is covered exactly once per candidate-bound question (a candidate appearing across multiple group-options on the same question counts as covered more than once). ### Elimination mechanics - **Red/green screens**: at the end of a test, contestants are shown red or green screens one at a time to build tension before the elimination is revealed. `Elimination::$data` stores the colour shown per candidate ( `SCREEN_RED/SCREEN_GREEN` via `getScreenColour()`), independent of the actual quiz score. - **Jokers / corrections**: contestants can hold a "joker" (an advantage, e.g. an extra correct answer) that adjusts their effective score without changing what they actually answered. This is `QuizCandidate::$corrections` — a float added to the raw score, kept separate from `GivenAnswer` so the audit trail of what was actually answered stays untouched. - **Dropouts**: `Quiz::$dropouts` controls how many contestants can be eliminated in a single test (normally 1, but some episodes eliminate more). - **Finalization/locking**: `Quiz::$isFinalized` and `$isLocked` gate when a quiz's questions/answers can still be edited — a quiz becomes immutable once a candidate has started it or an admin explicitly finalizes it. Treat this as the natural point where computed results (scores, statistics) can be cached indefinitely, since nothing that feeds them can change afterward. ### Terminology map (Dutch UI ↔ domain code) | UI/domain term (Dutch) | Code | |------------------------------|-------------------------------| | Test | `Quiz` | | Vraag | `Question` | | Antwoord | `Answer` | | Kandidaat | `Candidate` | | Ingevuld antwoord | `GivenAnswer` | | Afvallen / rood-groen scherm | `Elimination` | | Joker / correctie | `QuizCandidate::$corrections` | ## Architecture Notes ### Routing - Routes are **attribute-based** (PHP 8 attributes in controller methods) - Configured in `config/routes/attributes.yaml` for automatic discovery - Main entry point: `config/routes.yaml` ### Service Container & Dependency Injection - Services in `src/` are automatically registered via PSR-4 namespace `Tvdt\` - Exclusions: Entity, DependencyInjection, Kernel classes - Autowiring and autoconfiguration enabled by default - Service definitions in `config/services.yaml` ### Database & Migrations - PostgreSQL-based with Doctrine ORM - Migrations in `migrations/` at project root, namespace `DoctrineMigrations` (intentionally not autoloaded); generate with `bin/console make:migration` - Test fixtures in `src/DataFixtures/` (loaded with `--group=test`) - Test database configured separately via `.env.test` ### Testing Infrastructure - **PHPUnit 13** with DAMA Doctrine Test Bundle for transaction rollback - Bootstrap: `tests/bootstrap.php` loads env vars and autoloader; `tests/symfony-container.php` boots the test kernel/container (used by Rector) - Symfony test utilities (BrowserKit, CSS selectors) available - Coverage excluded from: `src/DataFixtures/` - Test environment: `APP_ENV=test` (set in phpunit.dist.xml) ### Testing Conventions (TDD) - **Write the failing test first.** When fixing any PHP-reachable bug, write a PHPUnit test that reproduces the failure before touching the production code. Fix the code until the test passes. - Only skip a test if the bug is purely in JavaScript/frontend where PHPUnit cannot reach it. - Don't write tests for trivial presentational markup (e.g. asserting a tooltip/popover attribute or a CSS class exists in a template). Tests cover behavior: routing, forms, persistence, authorization. - Follow the pattern in `tests/Controller/Backoffice/` for controller/integration tests: log in, GET for CSRF token, POST form data, assert redirect, clear entity manager, assert DB state. - **Prefer `TestCase` over `WebTestCase`/`KernelTestCase`.** Reach for the full kernel/DB boot only when the test genuinely needs routing, persistence, or the container — pure logic (services, listeners, helpers) should be tested with plain PHPUnit `TestCase` and mocked dependencies; it's faster and more isolated. - **Boy Scout Rule**: when you're already touching a file for an unrelated change, fix small nearby issues in the same commit (e.g. a test that unnecessarily extends `WebTestCase`, a stale comment) rather than leaving them for later — but don't let this balloon into an unrelated refactor. ### Code Style & Standards - **PHP-CS-Fixer**: Symfony ruleset + risky rules enabled - Strict types declaration required - Trailing commas in multiline structures - No else-only blocks - **Rector**: Aggressive modernization with all attribute sets + prepared sets (dead code, code quality, Doctrine, Symfony, PHPUnit) - **PHPStan**: Level 8 with extensions for Doctrine and Symfony - **Twig-CS-Fixer**: Template style enforcement - **Safe functions**: Use `thecodingmachine/safe` wrappers for standard PHP functions that return `false` on failure — they throw exceptions instead ### Environment Configuration - `.env` - Local development defaults (uncommitted in .env.local) - `.env.dev` - Development overrides - `.env.test` - Test environment configuration - Production uses `composer dump-env prod` for compiled configuration - Key variables: - `APP_ENV` - Environment (dev/test/prod) - `DATABASE_URL` - PostgreSQL connection string - `MAILER_SENDER` - From address for emails ### Frontend Build - Asset mapper (no Node.js/Webpack) for JS/CSS bundling; JS modules declared in `importmap.php` - **Stimulus** controllers in `assets/controllers/`, **Turbo** for SPA-like navigation - Sass sources in `assets/styles/`, compiled via `bin/console sass:build` - Production: Assets precompiled during Docker build - Development: Watch mode enabled in FrankenPHP container ## CI/CD Pipeline GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`): 1. **Linting**: Dockerfile (hadolint), Twig templates 2. **Code Quality**: - PHP-CS-Fixer style check - Twig-CS-Fixer style check - PHPStan static analysis - Rector dry-run 3. **Integration Tests**: - Docker image build and start services - Database creation and migration - Fixture loading - Full PHPUnit test suite with JUnit XML output - Doctrine schema validation 4. **Build & Deploy** (on tags or main, disabled currently): - Docker image push to GitHub Container Registry - Sentry release creation - Portainer webhook trigger for production deployment Runs on all pushes to main and pull requests. Concurrency cancels old runs on new commits. ## Important Files & Conventions - **Kernel**: `src/Kernel.php` - Symfony kernel class - **AbstractController**: Base class for all controllers — defines route parameter regexes (`SEASON_CODE_REGEX`, `CANDIDATE_HASH_REGEX`) and flash helpers - **Flash Messages**: Use `FlashType` enum instead of string literals - **QuizSpreadsheetService**: Handles importing quizzes from XLSX files - **Rector container**: `tests/symfony-container.php` — boots a test kernel so Rector can resolve Symfony service types - **.gitignore**: Excludes var/, vendor/, .env.local, .phpunit.cache - **Dockerfile**: Multi-stage build with dev/prod separation, FrankenPHP-based - **Docker Compose**: PHP service with Caddy, PostgreSQL database, persistent volumes ## Security & Authorization - Doctrine extensions enabled (timestamps, slugs, etc.) - Voter-based authorization in `src/Security/Voter/` - User entity with security encoding configured - CSRF protection enabled - Email verification available via SymfonyCasts bundle ## Composer Scripts Auto-executed scripts on install/update: - `cache:clear` - Symfony cache clear - `assets:install` - Copy public assets - `importmap:install` - JS import map setup ## Writing Style (Help Content & UI Text) When writing Dutch help content in `templates/backoffice/help/nl/`: - **No em-dashes** (—): use a comma or restructure the sentence instead. - **No semicolons** (;): use a comma. Semicolons are technically correct but read as AI-generated text. - **Natural Dutch**: write the way a person would explain it to a colleague, not in formal documentation style. - **Colons after bold labels** (e.g. `Label: description`) are fine and intentional. ## Notes for Future Work - The backoffice elimination logic is in `Controller/Backoffice/PrepareEliminationController.php` - Quiz timing logic starts on candidate start click and stops on final answer selection - Background music feature noted but not yet implemented (requirements only) - Statistics module (per-quiz statistics page, candidate accusation matrix, caching) is planned per GitHub issue #199 — see "Domain Context" above for why candidate-bound answers matter to it
