Concept wise nice explanation but the flow should be like
Route -> Controller (which returns JsonRespnse) -> Service (Returns Array) -> Repository (Returns Collection) Or Action (Returns Array)


So this is the best practice as I think.

This a good example of the repository pattern. In my opinion, using the repository pattern with the active record pattern makes no sense, since it is returning instances of an active record model, and that leaks the database abstraction layer. In turn, the repository should return domain objects with state and methods, but the responsibility to persist or change data in the storage is of the repository. What prevents you to call an update method on a model returned by the repository? That's where things can get out of control.

What if the datasource was determined my user input? How could you tell the system to use the QuoteRepo or the QuoteRepoFile from the index method?
