Lightweight DI Container for Crystal

Build Status

alt text

Crystal-DI is a flexible DI-container with simple DSL, auto-injection, memoization, lazy evaluation and contextual bindings.

Installation

Add this to your application's shard.yml:

dependencies:
  di:
    github: funk-yourself/crystal-di
    version: ~> 0.2.1

Usage

It's as simple as:

require "di"

module Container # may be a class as well
  include DI::ContainerMixin

  register Foo, Foo.new
end

Container.resolve(Foo)

You can also use blocks:

register Bar, Bar.new

register Foo do
  logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
  logger.level = Logger::WARN
  Foo.new(resolve(Bar), logger)
end

Auto-injection

module Container
  include DI::ContainerMixin

  register AppService, AppService.new
end

class AppService
end

class Controller
  include DI::AutoInject(Container)

  def initialize(@app_service : AppService)
    p @app_service
  end
end

Controller.new

Memoization

Sometimes you need to be sure that there's only one instance of some service. You can achieve that with memoize option:

# Will be evaluated only one time
register AppService, AppService.new, memoize: true

Contextual bindings

You can bind container items to any class with context option:

register AppService, AppService.new, context: Controller

It means that you can resolve this item by calling

Container.resolve(AppService, context: Controller)

But the main purpose is ability to auto-inject different implementations of abstract class/interface into different classes:

require "di"

module Container
  include DI::ContainerMixin
  register Storage, RedisStorage.new, context: UsersController
  register Storage, MemcachedStorage.new, context: PostsController
end

abstract class Storage
end

class RedisStorage < Storage
end

class MemcachedStorage < Storage
end

class UsersController
  include DI::AutoInject(Container)

  def initialize(@storage : Storage)
    p @storage
  end
end

class PostsController
  include DI::AutoInject(Container)

  def initialize(@storage : Storage)
    p @storage
  end
end

UsersController.new # will print RedisStorage
PostsController.new # will print MemcachedStorage
