+# Audit — developer guide
+
+This page explains how to trigger an audit from your code, recommended practices, how subjects are converted and displayed, and how the whole pipeline persists an `AuditTrail`.
+
+## Triggering an audit
+
+Audits are triggered through the `Chill\MainBundle\Audit\TriggerAuditInterface` service. It exposes a single method and is also invokable:
+
+```php
+use Chill\MainBundle\Audit\TriggerAuditInterface;
+use Chill\MainBundle\Entity\AuditTrail; // for action constants
+use Symfony\Component\Translation\TranslatableMessage;
+
+final class MyController
+{
+    public function __construct(private readonly TriggerAuditInterface $triggerAudit) {}
+
+    public function someAction(MyEntity $entity): Response
+    {
+        // ... persist/flush $entity so that its id is available
+
+        $this->triggerAudit->triggerAudit(
+            AuditTrail::AUDIT_UPDATE,        // $action
+            $entity,                         // $mainSubject (object)
+            subjects: [$entity->getOwner()], // optional related subjects (array of objects)
+            description: new TranslatableMessage('audit.entity.updated'), // optional description
+            metadata: ['field' => 'value']   // optional machine-readable extras
+        );
+
+        // equivalently (because the service is invokable):
+        ($this->triggerAudit)(AuditTrail::AUDIT_UPDATE, $entity);
+
+        // ...
+    }
+}
+```
+
+- `$action`: an action label such as `AuditTrail::AUDIT_CREATE`, `AUDIT_UPDATE`, `AUDIT_DELETE`, `AUDIT_VIEW`, `AUDIT_LIST`, ...
+- `$mainSubject`: the primary domain object the action is about.
+- `$subjects`: additional related domain objects to attach to the audit (optional). The always-related subject should be added through the converter.
+- `$description`: a short human-readable text, already translated. You may pass a plain string or any `TranslatableInterface` (e.g. `TranslatableMessage`).
+- `$metadata`: free-form associative array to add machine-readable context (ids, filters, counters, etc.).
+
+!!! warning
+
+    The id of every subject must be set when you trigger the audit. In practice this means:
+    - trigger audits after persist operations (once Doctrine assigned an id, i.e. after `flush()` when needed), and
+    - trigger audits before delete operations (while the id is still available).
+
+See concrete usages in controllers such as:
+- `Chill\PersonBundle\Controller\AccompanyingCourseApiController` (multiple calls to `$this->triggerAudit->triggerAudit(...)`).
+
+Example extracted and simplified from `AccompanyingCourseApiController`:
+
+```php
+$this->managerRegistry->getManager()->flush(); // ensure ids are set
+
+$this->triggerAudit->triggerAudit(
+    AuditTrail::AUDIT_UPDATE,
+    $accompanyingPeriod,
+    description: new TranslatableMessage('audit.accompanying_period.set_requestor'),
+    metadata: ['t' => $accompanyingPeriod->getRequestorKind(), 'requestor' => $accompanyingPeriod->getRequestor()->getId()],
+);
+```
+
+### Best practices
+
+- Audit every create, update, delete, view and list action on domain entities.
+- Use only the `$action` when it is obvious and self-explanatory.
+- Use the `$description` when the action alone is not enough. For example for a list, the main subject is the person (or the accompanying period) the list is attached to, and the description should summarize the list content (filters, ranges, counts, …).
+- Add `$metadata` to provide extra, machine-friendly details (ids, filters, pagination, counts, etc.).
+- Reuse the existing patterns found in current controllers and services.
+
+Examples:
+
+```php
+// CREATE a person
+($this->triggerAudit)(AuditTrail::AUDIT_CREATE, $person);
+
+// VIEW a person details
+($this->triggerAudit)(AuditTrail::AUDIT_VIEW, $person);
+
+// LIST resources attached to an accompanying period with filters in metadata
+($this->triggerAudit)(
+    AuditTrail::AUDIT_LIST,
+    $accompanyingPeriod,
+    description: 'Listing resources for the current period',
+    metadata: ['scope' => 'resources', 'filters' => ['category' => 'housing', 'page' => 1]]
+);
+```
+
+
+## Use new entities in Audits
+
+### Creating a new SubjectConverter
+
+Subjects are normalized into a serializable `Subject` model using `Chill\MainBundle\Audit\SubjectConverterInterface`.
+Implement a converter when you introduce a new domain type you want to appear in audits.
+
+Interface:
+
+```php
+interface SubjectConverterInterface
+{
+    /**
+     * @param object $subject
+     */
+    public function convert(mixed $subject, bool $includeAssociated = false): SubjectBag;
+
+    /** @phpstan-assert-if-true T $subject */
+    public function supportsConvert(mixed $subject): bool;
+
+    public static function getDefaultPriority(): int;
+}
+```
+
+Typical implementation skeleton:
+
+```php
+use Chill\MainBundle\Audit\{Subject, SubjectBag, SubjectConverterInterface, SubjectConverterManagerAwareInterface, SubjectConverterManagerAwareTrait};
+
+final class MyEntitySubjectConverter implements SubjectConverterInterface, SubjectConverterManagerAwareInterface
+{
+    use SubjectConverterManagerAwareTrait;
+
+    public function supportsConvert(mixed $subject): bool
+    {
+        return $subject instanceof MyEntity;
+    }
+
+    public function convert(mixed $subject, bool $includeAssociated = false): SubjectBag
+    {
+        \assert($subject instanceof MyEntity);
+
+        $main = new SubjectBag(
+            new Subject(
+                type: 'my_entity',
+                identifiers: ['id' => $subject->getId()],
+            )
+        );
+
+        $associated = [];
+        if ($includeAssociated && null !== $subject->getOwner()) {
+            // we delegate the conversion of the owner to the manager
+            $main->append($this->subjectConverterManager->getSubjectsForEntity($subject->getOwner(), false));
+        }
+
+        return new SubjectBag($main, $associated);
+    }
+
+    public static function getDefaultPriority(): int
+    {
+        return 0; // higher value = earlier pick when multiple converters support the same type
+    }
+}
+```
+
+- `SubjectBag` groups the primary `Subject` and optional associated `Subject`s.
+- Converters are discovered and composed by `SubjectConverterManagerInterface`.
+- Implement `SubjectConverterManagerAwareInterface` (and use `SubjectConverterManagerAwareTrait`) if your converter needs to delegate the conversion of associated entities to the manager (useful if there is already a converter for that entity).
+
+### Creating a new SubjectDisplayer
+
+To control how a `Subject` is rendered in the UI (HTML or plain string), implement `Chill\MainBundle\Audit\SubjectDisplayerInterface`:
+
+```php
+interface SubjectDisplayerInterface
+{
+    public function supportsDisplay(Subject $subject, array $options = []): bool;
+
+    /** @param 'html'|'string' $format */
+    public function display(Subject $subject, string $format = 'html', array $options = []): string;
+}
+```
+
+Example: see `Chill\PersonBundle\Audit\Displayer\HouseholdCompositionDisplayer`. A simplified version:
+
+```php
+use Chill\MainBundle\Audit\{Subject, SubjectDisplayerInterface};
+
+final class MyEntityDisplayer implements SubjectDisplayerInterface
+{
+    public function supportsDisplay(Subject $subject, array $options = []): bool
+    {
+        return 'my_entity' === $subject->type;
+    }
+
+    public function display(Subject $subject, string $format = 'html', array $options = []): string
+    {
+        $label = sprintf('#%d %s', $subject->identifiers['id'], $subject->labels['name'] ?? '');
+        return 'html' === $format ? '<span>'.$label.'</span>' : $label; // <-- here, be aware that there is no xss risk. If any, use twig.
+    }
+}
+```
+
+!!! warning
+
+    Use twig to render html format if there is a risk for xss injection.
+
+## How it works internally
+
+1. Storage: every audit is persisted as an `AuditTrail` entity.
+2. Subject conversion: the main subject and all additional subjects are converted to `Subject` models using `SubjectConverterInterface` implementations, orchestrated by `SubjectConverterManagerInterface`.
+3. Display: UI rendering uses `SubjectDisplayerInterface` implementations to render `Subject`s as HTML or strings.
+4. Persistence: `TriggerAuditInterface` builds an `AuditEvent`, converts it to an `AuditTrail` via `AuditEvent2TrailInterface`, and persists it through the audit persistence layer (`AuditTrailPersisterInterface`, i.e. the persistence interface behind the service). There is no need to call `EntityManager::flush()` for the audit itself, so it is fast; however you must trigger the audit when the subject ids are available (see warning above).
