README
DIC-IT is a simple dependency injection container, with extensible activation & injection strategies.
Setup
The recommended setup is to create a config folder at the root of your repository. All configuration is based on YAML files.
Sample YAML file :
parameters: MyParameter: 'Some parameter value' MyOtherParameter: 42 MyParameters: nested_level: foo : foo bar : bar baz : foobar classes: MyServiceName: class: \Fully\Qualified\ClassName arguments: [ @MyDependency, %MyParameter, %MyParameters.nested_level, 'Hard-coded value', $container, $env.ENV, $const.ROOT_PATH ] MyDependency: class: \Fully\Qualified\DependencyClassName props: MyProperty: %MyOtherParameter
References
You can inject different kind of references inside class definitions. You can get other service instances, parameters, the container itself, env variables, and constant values.
- @ServiceName : fetch an instance of that definition
- %param : fetch a parameter defined in the container
- $container : fetch the container itself
- $env.ENV_NAME : fetch an environment variable
- $const.CONST_NAME : fetch a global defined constant value
Using includes
The configuration can be split into multiple files to ease management of your dependencies :
includes: - relative/file.yml - relative/another-file.yml classes: ...
This allows you to separate parameters from service definitions for example.
Default object life-cycle
By default, all objects are created as non-singleton (this will definitely change) objects, so every time a reference is resolved by the container, a new instance of the requested object is created.
Managing circular dependencies
By default, circular dependencies are not handled well (stack overflow...) due the default object life-cycle. To enable circular dependencies for a given object, at least one of the two objects must be defined as a singleton. This however will not yield the expected results, so it is highly recommended to define both objects involved in the circular dependency as singletons.
