+## Code of Conduct
+
+This project follows the [Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md). By participating, you agree to uphold it. Please report unacceptable behavior to the project maintainer.
+
+---
+
+## How to Contribute
+
+1. **Search existing issues** before opening a new one — your question or bug may already be tracked.
+2. **Open an issue** for non-trivial changes before writing code. This allows design discussion and avoids wasted effort.
+3. **Fork** the repository and create a dedicated branch from `main`:
+ ```bash
+ git checkout -b feat/my-feature
+ ```
+4. **Implement** your change following the coding standards below.
+5. **Test** your change — all existing tests must pass and new behavior should have test coverage.
+6. **Push** your branch and open a **Pull Request** against `main`.
+
+---
+
+## Development Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- [.NET 8 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/8.0)
+- Git
+- Sitecore Headless GraphQL endpoint (for integration testing)
+
+### Steps
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/marioarce/Axlis.CleanArchitecture.Sample.git
+cd Axlis.CleanArchitecture.Sample
+
+dotnet restore
+dotnet build
+dotnet test
+```
+
+All Axlis packages resolve from nuget.org — no additional local feed setup is required.
+
+### Configure Sitecore Connection
+
+Set user-secrets for the Sitecore GraphQL endpoint:
+
+```bash
+cd src/CleanArchitecture.WebApi
+dotnet user-secrets set "AxlisGraphQL:Endpoint" "https://your-sitecore-instance/sitecore/api/graph/edge"
+dotnet user-secrets set "AxlisGraphQL:ApiKey" "{YOUR-API-KEY}"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Coding Standards
+
+This repo follows the conventions defined in `.editorconfig`. Key rules:
+
+- **File-scoped namespaces** — required (`namespace Foo;` not `namespace Foo { ... }`).
+- **Explicit accessibility modifiers** — always required (`public`, `private`, etc.).
+- **Nullable reference types** — enabled globally; no `!` suppressions without justification.
+- **No `this.` prefix** — avoid qualifying members with `this.`.
+- **`var`** — use only when the type is evident from the right-hand side.
+- **XML doc comments** — required on all `public` members.
+- **No trailing whitespace**, LF line endings, UTF-8 encoding.
+
+The build enforces code style (`EnforceCodeStyleInBuild = true`). A build that introduces style violations will fail.
+
+### Axlis-Specific Guidelines
+
+- **Template POCOs**: All Sitecore template classes must inherit from `ExtendedItem` and use `[SitecoreTemplate]` attribute
+- **Field Properties**: Use `[SitecoreField]` attribute with the exact Sitecore field name (case-insensitive)
+- **XML Documentation**: Provide comprehensive XML docs for all template classes explaining their purpose and fields
+- **Handler Documentation**: Add developer notes (`/* DevNote: */`) explaining Axlis API usage patterns
+
+---
+
+## Commit Message Format
+
+```
+:
+
+
+```
+
+- **Scope** is required. Use the area being changed (e.g. `docs`, `axlis`, `template`, `chore`, `feat`, `fix`).
+- **Description** is a short imperative sentence (no period at end).
+- **Changes** are bullet points (`- `) summarising what was done.
+- No emojis in commit messages.
+
+Example:
+
+```
+feat: add Language template POCO
+
+- Add Language class inheriting from ExtendedItem
+- Add fields: Charset, CodePage, Dictionary, Encoding, FallbackLanguage, Iso, RegionalIsoCode
+- Add comprehensive XML documentation
+- Update GetSitecoreShowcaseQueryHandler to use Language template
+```
+
+---
+
+## Pull Request Guidelines
+
+- Keep PRs **focused** — one logical change per PR.
+- Fill out the [PR template](.github/pull_request_template.md) completely.
+- Ensure all CI checks pass before requesting review.
+- Update `CHANGELOG.AXLIS.md` under the `[Unreleased]` section.
+- Do not force-push to a PR branch after review has started.
+- For template-related changes, ensure they don't conflict with the base PowerCSharp.CleanArchitecture.Template structure.
+
+---
+
+## Reporting Bugs
+
+Use the [Bug Report issue template](.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml). Include:
+
+- Steps to reproduce
+- Expected vs actual behaviour
+- .NET SDK version and OS
+- Sitecore version (if applicable)
+- Axlis package versions
+
+---
+
+## Requesting Features
+
+Use the [Feature Request issue template](.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.yml). Explain:
+
+- The problem you are trying to solve
+- The proposed solution
+- Alternatives you have considered
+- How this feature would benefit the Axlis community
+
+---
+
+## Documentation Strategy
+
+This project uses a `.AXLIS.md` suffix for documentation files that are specific to this sample project:
+
+- `CHANGELOG.AXLIS.md` - Axlis-specific changelog (this file)
+- `CONTRIBUTING.AXLIS.md` - Axlis-specific contribution guidelines (this file)
+- `SECURITY.AXLIS.md` - Axlis-specific security policy
+- `README.md` - Main project documentation (already Axlis-specific)
+
+The original template files (`CHANGELOG.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `SECURITY.md`) are preserved from the base PowerCSharp.CleanArchitecture.Template for comparison and reference when merging template updates.
+
+When updating from the base template, merge the original files and review the `.AXLIS.md` files separately to ensure Axlis-specific content is preserved.

## What is this?
-**PowerCSharp.CleanArchitecture** is a production-ready starter template for building ASP.NET Core Web APIs following Clean Architecture principles. It is opinionated by design: the architectural decisions, folder conventions, dependency rules, and cross-cutting concerns are already solved so you can focus on shipping your domain logic.
+**Axlis.CleanArchitecture.Sample** is a working example of integrating the Axlis ORM into a Clean Architecture ASP.NET Core WebApi. It demonstrates:
+
+- Wiring Axlis and Axlis.GraphQL services via dependency injection
+- Defining strongly-typed Sitecore template POCOs
+- Using the Axlis facade (`ISitecoreFacade`) in CQRS handlers
+- Exercising field types: TextField, ImageField, MultilistField, ItemReferenceField
+- Axes traversal: Parent, Children, Siblings, GetChildren, GetDescendants
+- The WithResult rich API: value, metadata, and diagnostics
-This repo is:
-- A **GitHub Template Repository** — click "Use this template" to generate your own repo pre-populated with the full structure.
-- A **`dotnet new` template** — scaffold locally with a single command (see [Using as a Template](#using-as-a-template)).
+This is a **sample project**, not a template. It demonstrates production-ready patterns for integrating Axlis into a Clean Architecture solution. All Axlis packages are published to NuGet.org at v0.1.0, so you can use this as a reference for your own projects.
---
## Architecture Overview
-The solution follows a strict **dependency rule**: inner layers never reference outer layers. Dependencies always point inward.
+The solution follows Clean Architecture with strict dependency rules. Axlis is wired in the WebApi composition root and consumed by the Application layer via `ISitecoreFacade`.
```
┌──────────────────────────────────────────────┐
-│ WebApi │ Composition root · host · middleware pipeline
+│ WebApi │ Composition root · Axlis DI · user-secrets
├──────────────────────────────────────────────┤
-│ Presentation │ Controllers · HTTP response mapping · ApiResponse

└──────────────────────┴───────────────────────┘
```
-| Layer | Project | Responsibility |
+| Layer | Project | Axlis Integration |
|---|---|---|
-| **Domain** | `CleanArchitecture.Domain` | Core business entities (`BaseEntity`), aggregate root marker (`IAggregateRoot`). Zero external dependencies. |
-| **Shared** | `CleanArchitecture.Shared` | Enums and constants shared across layers without creating circular dependencies. |
-| **Application** | `CleanArchitecture.Application` | Use cases via CQRS (MediatR). Commands, Queries, Handlers, Validators (FluentValidation), pipeline behaviors. |
-| **Operational** | `CleanArchitecture.Operational` | Cross-cutting resilience concerns: retry policies via Polly (`IRetryPolicyProvider`). |
-| **Infrastructure** | `CleanArchitecture.Infrastructure` | Concrete adapters: `DateTimeProvider`, Operational wiring. Third-party integrations live here. |
-| **Presentation** | `CleanArchitecture.Presentation` | API controllers (extend `BaseApiController`), `ApiResponse` envelope, `[FeatureGate]` attribute. |
-| **WebApi** | `CleanArchitecture.WebApi` | Composition root — wires all layers, configures PowerCSharp Features, registers middleware. |
+| **WebApi** | `CleanArchitecture.WebApi` | Registers `AddAxlis()` and `AddAxlisGraphQL()`, wires `UseAxlis()`, reads config from appsettings + user-secrets |
+| **Presentation** | `CleanArchitecture.Presentation` | `SitecoreController` exposes `/v1/sitecore/showcase` endpoint |
+| **Application** | `CleanArchitecture.Application` | Defines Sitecore template POCOs, CQRS handler uses `ISitecoreFacade` |
+| **Infrastructure** | `CleanArchitecture.Infrastructure` | No Axlis code (clean separation) |
+| **Domain** | `CleanArchitecture.Domain` | No Axlis code (pure domain) |

## What's Included
-### Clean Architecture
-- **Strict dependency rule** enforced by project references — outer layers cannot leak into inner layers.
-- **`BaseEntity`** — generic, strongly-typed entity base in the Domain layer.
-- **`IAggregateRoot`** — marker interface for aggregate roots.
-
-### CQRS via MediatR
-- Commands and Queries separated into dedicated folders.
-- `BaseApiController.SendAsync()` dispatches through MediatR and maps the result to HTTP.
-- **`LoggingBehavior`** — MediatR pipeline behavior that logs every request/response automatically.
-
-### Validation via FluentValidation
-- Validators registered automatically via assembly scanning.
-- Integrated with MediatR pipeline — invalid requests are rejected before reaching handlers.
-
-### Consistent HTTP Responses
-- **`ApiResponse`** / **`ApiResponse`** envelope on every endpoint.
-- `Ardalis.Result` used in handlers; extension method maps it to the correct HTTP status code automatically.
+### Axlis Integration
+- **Axlis service registration** in `Program.cs` via `AddAxlis()` and `AddAxlisGraphQL()`
+- **Ambient lazy-loader** wired via `UseAxlis()` for ExtendedItem.Axes traversal
+- **User-secrets** for sensitive config (Endpoint, ApiKey) — never committed
+- **NuGet packages** at v0.1.0 (Axlis, Axlis.Abstractions, Axlis.Core, Axlis.GraphQL) from nuget.org
+- **Configurable caching** via PowerCSharp.Feature.Cache providers (BitFaster, Disk)
+- **Diagnostic support** via EnableDiagnostics option for troubleshooting
+
+### Sitecore Template POCOs
+Located in `src/CleanArchitecture.Application/Sitecore/Templates/`:
+
+**System Templates:**
+- **Language** — Language settings including charset, encoding, ISO codes, and fallback language
+- **MainSection** — Base system template (foundation for other templates)
+- **Node** — Base template for hierarchical structures
+- **PublishingTarget** — Publishing target database configuration
+
+**Sample Templates:**
+- **SampleItem** — Demonstrates TextField usage with Title and Text fields
+
+All template classes include comprehensive XML documentation explaining their purpose and field mappings.
+
+### CQRS Showcase Endpoint
+`GET /v1/sitecore/showcase` exercises six Axlis API pivots:
+1. **TextField** — SampleItem.Title and SampleItem.Text field access
+2. **Axes traversal** — Parent, Children, Grandparent, Siblings navigation
+3. **GetDescendants** — Recursive traversal with template type filtering (Language items)
+4. **WithResult rich API** — Metadata (ItemId, ItemPath, ItemVersion, Timestamp) and Diagnostics (warnings, errors, info)
+5. **Lazy-loading** — Demonstrates Axes lazy-fetch behavior for items beyond initial fetch
+6. **Caching** — Shows how Axlis caching integrates with the facade
+
+The handler includes comprehensive developer notes explaining each API pattern, performance considerations, and best practices.
+
+### Clean Architecture Foundation
+- Strict dependency rule enforced by project references
+- CQRS via MediatR with `BaseRequestHandler`
+- FluentValidation integration
+- `ApiResponse` envelope on all endpoints
+- `LoggingBehavior` pipeline behavior
### PowerCSharp Features Framework
-Pluggable feature modules with flag-gating (`PowerFeatures::Enabled` in `appsettings.json`):
-
-| Feature | Package | What it gives you |
-|---|---|---|
-| **CORS** | `PowerCSharp.BuiltInFeatures` | Configurable CORS policy, flag-gated |
-| **Cache (BitFaster)** | `PowerCSharp.Feature.Cache.BitFaster` | High-performance in-memory cache via `ICacheService` |
-| **Cache (Disk)** | `PowerCSharp.Feature.Cache.Disk` | Persistent disk cache via `IDiskCacheService` |
-| **Samples** | host-local module | Living-documentation endpoints at `/v1/samples` (flag-gated, disabled in production) |
-
-### Resilience
-- **Polly** retry policies via `IRetryPolicyProvider` in the `Operational` layer — ready to wire into any infrastructure adapter.
-
-### Health Checks
-- `/health` endpoint registered and mapped out of the box.
-
-### Living-Documentation Samples
-The `Samples` feature (disabled by default, enabled in Development) ships working endpoint examples for:
-- `GET /v1/samples/cache` — cache miss → hit demonstration
-- `GET /v1/samples/cache/status` — inspect cache keys
-- `DELETE /v1/samples/cache` — clear cache
-- `GET /v1/samples/disk-cache` — disk cache demonstration
-- Full integration tests covering the above
+- CORS, Cache (BitFaster), DiskCache, Samples feature modules
+- Flag-gating via `PowerFeatures::Enabled` in `appsettings.json`
+- Samples feature enabled in Development for showcase endpoint access

-### Option A — GitHub Template (recommended for new repos)
+```bash
+dotnet run --project src/CleanArchitecture.WebApi/CleanArchitecture.WebApi.csproj
+```
-1. Click **"Use this template"** at the top of this page.
-2. Name your new repository and choose visibility.
-3. GitHub creates a new repo with the full project structure — no fork, clean history.
+The API starts on `https://localhost:7xxx` / `http://localhost:5xxx`. Open the Swagger UI at `/swagger`.
-### Option B — `dotnet new` (scaffold locally)
+### Test the showcase endpoint
```bash
-# Install the template once
-dotnet new install PowerCSharp.CleanArchitecture.Template
-
-# Scaffold a new project
-dotnet new powercsharp-cleanarchitecture --name MyAwesomeApi --output ./MyAwesomeApi
-cd MyAwesomeApi
-dotnet run --project src/MyAwesomeApi.WebApi
+curl "https://localhost:7235/v1/sitecore/showcase?rootPath=/sitecore/content/home"
```
-`--name` replaces `CleanArchitecture` everywhere: filenames, namespaces, project references, and the solution file.
+Adjust `rootPath` to match your Sitecore content tree structure.

## Configuration
-Key feature flags in `appsettings.json`:
+### Axlis Configuration
+
+`appsettings.json` contains the Axlis and AxlisGraphQL sections:
+
+```json
+{
+ "Axlis": {
+ "CacheTtl": "00:30:00",
+ "EnableDiagnostics": true
+ },
+ "AxlisGraphQL": {
+ "Endpoint": "",
+ "BatchSize": 10,
+ "TimeoutSeconds": 30
+ }
+}
+```
+
+The `Endpoint` and `ApiKey` values are intentionally empty in `appsettings.json`. Set them via user-secrets:
+
+```bash
+dotnet user-secrets set "AxlisGraphQL:Endpoint" "https://your-sitecore-instance/sitecore/api/graph/edge"
+dotnet user-secrets set "AxlisGraphQL:ApiKey" "{YOUR-API-KEY}"
+```
+
+### PowerCSharp Features
+
+The `Samples` feature flag must be enabled to access the showcase endpoint:
```json
{
"PowerFeatures": {
- "Cors": { "Enabled": true, "AllowedOrigins": [ "https://localhost" ] },
- "Cache": { "Enabled": true, "Provider": "BitFaster", "Capacity": 1000 },
- "DiskCache": { "Enabled": true, "DirectoryPath": "./cache" },
- "Samples": { "Enabled": false }
+ "Samples": {
+ "Enabled": true
+ }
}
}
```
-`appsettings.Development.json` overrides `Samples.Enabled` to `true` so the living-documentation endpoints are visible locally but hidden in production.
+This is already set to `true` in `appsettings.json` for this sample.

+- [Axlis NuGet Packages](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Axlis/)
+
+### Key Axlis Concepts
+
+**Clean API vs Rich API:**
+- `GetItemByPathAsync()` — Returns T? (null if not found). Use for simple fetches.
+- `GetItemByPathWithResultAsync()` — Returns `AxlisResult` with Value, Metadata, and Diagnostics. Use for troubleshooting or when you need provenance data.
+
+**Lazy Loading:**
+- Axes traversal (Parent, Children, Siblings) may trigger lazy-fetches if data wasn't included in the initial GraphQL response
+- Lazy fetches are synchronous (property getter cannot be async)
+- Safe in ASP.NET Core, but avoid deep traversal in non-ASP environments
+- Use `GetItemsByPathsAsync` for batch pre-fetch in performance-critical scenarios
+
+**Caching:**
+- Powered by `ICacheService` from PowerCSharp.Feature.Cache.Abstractions
+- Dual-indexing (by ID and path) with null-safety (null results never cached)
+- Configure CacheTtl in `AddAxlis` options (default: 60 minutes)
+- Use `SitecoreItemCacheManager.InvalidateAsync(key)` to evict specific items
+
+**Field Types:**
+- `TextField` — Simple text fields
+- `ImageField` — Image metadata (Src, Alt, etc.)
+- `MultilistField` — Multi-select item references
+- `ItemReferenceField` — Single item reference
+- All fields inherit from `BaseField` with FieldName, RawValue, and IsEmpty

+
+## Security Considerations for Axlis Integration
+
+This sample project demonstrates Axlis Sitecore Headless GraphQL integration. When adapting this sample for production, consider the following security aspects:
+
+### Sitecore GraphQL Configuration
+
+- **API Key Management**: The sample uses user-secrets for the Sitecore GraphQL API key. In production:
+ - Use Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or your organization's secret management solution
+ - Never commit API keys to source control
+ - Rotate API keys regularly
+ - Use separate API keys for different environments (dev, staging, production)
+
+- **Endpoint Security**:
+ - Ensure your Sitecore GraphQL endpoint uses HTTPS
+ - Configure IP whitelisting on the Sitecore GraphQL endpoint if possible
+ - Use Sitecore's built-in authentication and authorization for GraphQL
+
+### Axlis-Specific Security
+
+- **Caching**: Axlis uses caching to improve performance. Ensure:
+ - Cache TTL is appropriate for your content freshness requirements
+ - Cache invalidation is implemented for published content changes
+ - Sensitive data is not cached longer than necessary
+
+- **Lazy Loading**: Axes traversal can trigger lazy-fetches. In production:
+ - Be aware of potential performance implications
+ - Consider pre-fetching strategies for frequently accessed content
+ - Monitor GraphQL query complexity and rate limits
+
+- **Diagnostics**: The sample has diagnostics enabled. In production:
+ - Disable diagnostics (`EnableDiagnostics: false`) in high-throughput scenarios
+ - Diagnostic events may contain sensitive information in error messages
+ - Review and sanitize diagnostic logs before storage
+
+### Sample Endpoints
+
+This sample includes demo endpoints that may expose or mutate server-side state:
+
+- `/v1/sitecore/showcase` - Demonstrates Axlis API usage
+- `/v1/samples/*` - PowerCSharp cache demo endpoints
+
+These endpoints are:
+- **Flag-gated** (`PowerFeatures:Samples:Enabled`): disabled by default, enabled in `Development` only
+- **Not protected by authentication or authorization** — they are demos, not production code
+
+Before going to production:
+- Disable or remove sample/demo endpoints
+- Add proper authentication (e.g., JWT Bearer) and authorization policies
+- Review and scope the CORS policy to your actual front-end origins
+- Do not expose internal cache state or destructive operations without authorization
+
+### Dependency Security
+
+Dependencies are monitored via [Dependabot](.github/dependabot.yml). Pull requests for security updates are created automatically and prioritized for review.
+
+Key dependencies to monitor:
+- Axlis packages (Axlis, Axlis.Abstractions, Axlis.Core, Axlis.GraphQL)
+- Sitecore GraphQL client libraries
+- PowerCSharp packages
+
+### Clean Architecture Security
+
+This sample follows Clean Architecture principles which provide inherent security benefits:
+
+- **Dependency Rule**: Dependencies point inward, preventing external libraries from directly accessing inner layers
+- **Domain Layer Purity**: The Domain layer contains no external dependencies, making it inherently secure
+- **Infrastructure Isolation**: External concerns (Sitecore, caching, HTTP) are isolated in the Infrastructure layer
+
+When adapting this sample, maintain these architectural boundaries to preserve security benefits.
