Repository class
Marks a class as a repository for use with generic repository patterns, reflection, and code generation.
This annotation is intended to be applied to classes that serve as repositories for entities, typically extending Repository, CrudRepository, or their specialized variants.
Usage Example
@Repository()
class UserRepository extends CrudRepository<User, String> {}
Design Notes
- Used with reflection via
reflectablefor runtime or code-generation operations. - Can be combined with
@Genericfor generic repository types. - The annotation itself does not implement any repository behavior; it simply marks classes for tooling and runtime inspection.
