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`:

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

## Usage

It's as simple as:
```crystal
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:

```Crystal
register Bar, Bar.new

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

## Auto-injection

```crystal
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:

```Crystal
# 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:

```Crystal
register AppService, AppService.new, context: Controller
```

It means that you can resolve this item by calling

```Crystal
Container.resolve(AppService, context: Controller)
```

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

```Crystal
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
```

## Development

Run tests:
```
crystal spec
```
