Lightweight yet powerful implementation of dependancy injection container with autowiring.

Installation

Use Composer to install the package:

composer require intraworlds/service-container

Usage

The container is implementing standard PSR-11 interface. You can use it with autowiring out-of-the-box.

Let's say that we're building a cache client. This client will not implement a cache directly but only provides common API - it will depend on given adapter.

We'll start will start with defining memory adapter

namespace Acme\Cache;

class MemoryAdapter {
  function get(string $key): string {}
  function set(string $key, string $string): void {}
}

Cache client

namespace Acme\Cache;

class Client {
  private $adapter;

  function __construct(MemoryAdapter $adapter) {
    $this->adapter = $adapter;
  }

  function get(string $key) {
    $string = $this->adapter->get($key);
    return unserialize($string);
  }

  function set(string $key, $value): void {
    $string = serialize($value);
    $this->adapter->set($key, $string);
  }
}

Now in the main program we can instantiate cache client with ease - dependancy of the client will be resolved automatically.

namespace Acme;

use IW\ServiceContainer;

$container = new ServiceContainer;
$client = $container->get(Cache\Client::class);

Our still implementing serialization by itself. Let's move it into dependancy.

namespace Acme\Cache;

class PhpSerializer {
  function serialize($value): string {}
  function unserialize(string $string) {}
}

And little change in the client.

namespace Acme\Cache;

class Client {
  private $adapter;

  function __construct(MemoryAdapter $adapter, PhpSerializer $serializer) {
    $this->adapter = $adapter;
    $this->serializer = $serializer;
  }

  function get(string $key) {
    $string = $this->adapter->get($key);
    return $this->serializer->unserialize($string);
  }

  function set(string $key, $value): void {
    $string = $this->serializer->serialize($value);
    $this->adapter->set($key, $string);
  }
}

Our main code will stay the same.

$client = $container->get(Cache\Client::class);

Method resolve is useful for resolving any dependencies of a callable. Especially it's useful for init template method. See following example.

abstract class Parent {
  function __construct(Dependency $dependency, ServiceContainer $container) {
    $this->dependency = $dependency;
    $container->resolve([$this, 'init']);
  }
}

class Child extends Parent {
  function init(AhotherDependency $another) {
    // ...
  }
}

Manual Wiring

Sometimes you want to configure container manually. Let's consider following example on Command Pattern

interface OrderCommand
{
  function execute();
}

class OrderInvoker
{
  function __construct(private OrderCommand ...$commands) {}

  function execute() : void {
    array_walk($this->commands, fn($command) => $command->execute());
  }
}

With IW\ServiceContainer you have several options how to resolve OrderInvoker's dependencies.

// an alias but that's no good for multiple commands
$container->alias('OrderInvoker', 'ReserveItems');

// external factory
$container->bind('OrderInvoker', function (IW\ServiceContainer $container) {
  return new OrderInvoker($container->get('ReserveItems'), $container->get('SendInvoice'));
});

// internal factory
$container->bind('OrderInvoker', 'OrderInvoker::create');

class OrderInvoker
{
  static function create(ReserveItems $reserveItems, SendInvoice $sendInvoice) : OrderInvoker {
    return new OrderInvoker($reserveItems, $sendInvoice);
  }
}

// wiring factory
$container->wire('OrderInvoker', 'ReserveItems', 'SendInvoice');

// using annotations (TBD PHP 8.0), used as a fallback (can be overridden by defining factory directly (eg. in tests)
class OrderInvoker
{
  #[IW\ServiceContainer\Bind('create')]
  function __construct(private OrderCommand ...$commands) {}

  static function create(ReserveItems $reserveItems, SendInvoice $sendInvoice) : OrderInvoker {
    return new OrderInvoker($reserveItems, $sendInvoice);
  } 
}

Arguably all approaches have their advantages. internal factory approach is good for static analysis. wiring factory is useful for common application pattern and when dependencies may vary.

TODO keep going with examples

TODO

$exception->getOrigin(); // returns first exception outside the framework (useful for avoiding of tracing)
