interface AliasRepositoryInterface in Drupal 8

Provides an interface for path alias lookup operations.

The path alias repository service is only used internally in order to optimize alias lookup queries needed in the critical path of each request. However, it is not marked as an internal service because alternative storage backends still need to override it if they provide a different storage class for the PathAlias entity type.

Whenever you need to determine whether an alias exists for a system path, or whether a system path has an alias, the 'path_alias.manager' service should be used instead.
