frappe-doctype（冰沙文档类型）

Frappe DocType Creation

Create a production-ready Frappe v15 DocType with complete controller implementation, service layer integration, repository pattern, and test coverage.

When to Use

• Creating a new DocType for a Frappe application
• Need proper controller with lifecycle hooks
• Want service layer for business logic separation
• Require repository for clean data access
• Building submittable/amendable documents

Arguments

/frappe-doctype <doctype_name> [--module <module>] [--submittable] [--child]

Examples:

/frappe-doctype Sales Order
/frappe-doctype Invoice Item --child
/frappe-doctype Purchase Request --submittable

Procedure

Step 1: Gather DocType Requirements

Ask the user for:

1. DocType Name (Title Case, e.g., "Sales Order")
2. Module (which module this belongs to)
3. DocType Type:

- Standard (regular CRUD document) - Submittable (has workflow: Draft → Submitted → Cancelled) - Child Table (embedded in parent documents) - Single (configuration/settings document)

1. Key Fields (at least the primary fields needed)
2. Naming Pattern:

- Autoname (series like SO-.YYYY.-.#####) - Field-based (use a specific field value) - Prompt (user enters name)

Step 2: Analyze and Design

Based on requirements, determine:

• Field types and properties
• Link relationships to other DocTypes
• Required indexes for performance
• Permission model (roles that can access)
• Workflow requirements

Step 3: Generate DocType JSON

Create the DocType definition <doctype_folder>/<doctype_name>.json:

{
  "name": "<DocType Name>",
  "module": "<Module>",
  "doctype": "DocType",
  "naming_rule": "By \"Naming Series\" field",
  "autoname": "naming_series:",
  "is_submittable": 0,
  "is_tree": 0,
  "istable": 0,
  "editable_grid": 1,
  "track_changes": 1,
  "track_seen": 1,

    },
    {

    },
    {
      "fieldname": "description",
      "fieldtype": "Text Editor",

    },
    {
      "fieldname": "amended_from",
      "fieldtype": "Link",
      "label": "Amended From",
      "no_copy": 1,
      "options": "<DocType Name>",
      "print_hide": 1,
      "read_only": 1
    }
  ],
  "permissions": [
    {
      "role": "System Manager",
      "read": 1,
      "write": 1,
      "create": 1,
      "delete": 1,
      "submit": 0,
      "cancel": 0,
      "amend": 0
    }
  ],
  "sort_field": "modified",
  "sort_order": "DESC",
  "title_field": "title"

Step 8: Show Preview and Confirm

## DocType Creation Preview

**DocType:** <DocType Name>
**Module:** <Module>
**Type:** Standard | Submittable | Child Table

### Files to Create:

📁 <module>/doctype/<doctype_folder>/
├── 📄 <doctype_snake>.json       # DocType definition
├── 📄 <doctype_snake>.py         # Controller with hooks
├── 📄 <doctype_snake>.js         # Client-side script
└── 📄 test_<doctype_snake>.py    # Test cases

📁 <module>/services/
└── 📄 <doctype_snake>_service.py # Business logic

📁 <module>/repositories/
└── 📄 <doctype_snake>_repository.py # Data access

### Fields:

| Field | Type | Required |
|-------|------|----------|
| naming_series | Select | Yes |
| title | Data | Yes |
| status | Select | No |
| date | Date | Yes |
| description | Text Editor | No |

---
Create this DocType with all layers?

Step 9: Execute and Verify

After approval, create all files and run:

bench --site <site> migrate
bench --site <site> run-tests --doctype "<DocType Name>"

Output Format

## DocType Created

**Name:** <DocType Name>
**Path:** <app>/<module>/doctype/<doctype_folder>/

### Files Created:
- ✅ <doctype_snake>.json
- ✅ <doctype_snake>.py (controller)
- ✅ <doctype_snake>.js (client)
- ✅ test_<doctype_snake>.py
- ✅ <doctype_snake>_service.py
- ✅ <doctype_snake>_repository.py

### Next Steps:
1. Run `bench --site <site> migrate` to create database table
2. Add permissions in DocType settings
3. Create any child tables needed
4. Run tests: `bench --site <site> run-tests --doctype "<DocType Name>"`

Rules

1. v15 Type Annotations — Always include TYPE_CHECKING block with type hints
2. Multi-Layer Pattern — Create service and repository for every DocType
3. No Business Logic in Controller — Controllers call services, services implement logic
4. Comprehensive Tests — Every DocType must have test coverage
5. Proper Naming — DocType folder/file names must be snake_case
6. ALWAYS Confirm — Never create files without explicit user approval
7. Index Planning — Add indexes for frequently filtered fields
