Parable DI Container

Workflow Status Latest Stable Version Latest Unstable Version License

Parable DI is a no-nonsense dependency injection container that gets the job done.

Install

Php 8.0+ and composer are required.

$ composer require parable-php/di

Usage

Example usage of a straightforward situation:

use \Parable\Di\Container;

$container = new Container();

$app = $container->get(App::class);
$app->run();

Example usage of an interface-hinted dependency being mapped:

use \Parable\Di\Container;

$container = new Container();

class App
{
    public function __construct(ThatInterface $classWithThatInterface)
    {
    }
    
    public function run()
    {
        echo "Run? RUN!";
    }
}

$container->map(ThatInterface::class, ClassWithThatInterface::class);

$app = $container->get(App::class);
$app->run();

The above situation can also be solved by instantiating and then storing ClassWithThatInterface under ThatInterface.

Example usage of a class that needs the di itself, in case you need to do dynamic DI:

use \Parable\Di\Container;

$container = new Container();

class App
{
    public $container;
    public function __construct(
        public Container $container
    ) {}
}

$app = $container->get(App::class);
var_dump($app->container->has(App::class)); // output: bool(true)

For all other use cases, simply check the tests in tests/ContainerTest.php.

API

  • get(string $name): object - creates or gets instance
  • has(string $name): bool - check if instance is stored
  • assertHas(string $name): void - check and throw exception if instance is not stored
  • build(string $name): object - build instance with stored deps, don't store
  • buildAll(string $name): object - build instance with new deps, don't store
  • map(string $requested, string $replacement): void - allow pre-emptively defining a replacement class to be instantiated when the requested name is retrieved or built. Use for lazy-loading classes, i.e. for interface deps.
  • unmap(string $requested): void - removes the mapping and clears any previously mapped instances
  • getDependenciesFor(string $name, [int $storedDependencies]): array - get dependencies for instance, with stored (default) or new deps
  • store(object $instance, [string $name]): void - store instance under name, or under instance name by default
  • clear(string $name): void - clear instance
  • clearExcept(array $keep): void - clear all except provided names, throws if any of the instances to keep doesn't exist
  • clearAll(): void - clear all

Where object refers to any instance of any class.
