# injecty [][travis] [][npm]
**injecty** is a micro library for **dependency injection and inversion of control container in JavaScript**.
It's dependency-free, light and small (~200 SLOC).
It was designed to be embedded in frameworks or libraries
It's intimately inspired in [AngularJS DI](https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/di) and provides useful features such as autodiscover injections from arguments using pattern matching, creating multiple containers with inheritance support between them, AngularJS-style injections based on array notation and more
injecty is written in [Wisp][wisp], a Clojure-like language which transpiles into plain JavaScript.
It exploits functional programming common patterns such as lambda lifting, pure functions, higher-order functions, function composition and more
## Installation
#### Node.js
```bash
npm install injecty
```
#### Browser
Via [Bower](http://bower.io)
```bash
bower install injecty
```
Via [Component](http://component.io)
```bash
component install h2non/injecty
```
Or loading the script remotely
```html
```
### Environments
It [works](http://kangax.github.io/compat-table/es5/) in any ES5 compliant engine
- Node.js
- Chrome >= 5
- Firefox >= 3
- Safari >= 5
- Opera >= 12
- IE >= 9
## Basic usage
```js
var injecty = require('injecty')
```
```js
injecty.register('Request', XMLHttpRequest)
injecty.register('Log', console.log.bind(console))
function get(Request) {
return function (url, cb) {
var xhr = new Request()
xhr.open('GET', url)
xhr.onload = function () {
if (xhr.readyState === 4) {
cb(xhr.responseText)
}
}
xhr.send()
return xhr
}
}
var get = injecty.invoke(get)
get('/test/sample.json', injecty.invoke(function (Log) {
return Log // -> output body response
}))
```
## API
#### injecty.container([parent])
Creates a new container.
Optionally it can inherit from another container
```js
// register a dependency in the global built-in container
injecty.register('Math', Math)
// creates new container which inherits from global
var container = injecty.container(injecty)
// check it was registered
container.injectable('Math') // -> true
```
#### injecty.get(name)
Alias: `require`
Retrieve a registered dependency by its name
```js
injecty.get('Math') // -> {MathConstructor...}
```
#### injecty.register(name, value)
Alias: `set`
Register a new dependency in the container
```js
injecty.register('Location', window.location)
injecty.injectable('Location') // -> true
```
You can also register functions that require injections
```js
injecty.register('Date', Date)
injecty.register('now', injecty.inject(function (Date) {
return new Date().getTime()
}))
var time = injecty.invoke(function (now) {
return now()
})
console.log(time) // -> 1405170246959
```
##### Different ways to declare injections for consistency in browsers
Using the injection array notation
```js
injecty.register('random', ['Math', function (m) {
return m.random()
}])
```
Setting the `$inject` property in the function object
```js
function random(m) {
return m.random()
}
random.$inject = ['Math']
injecty.register('random', random)
```
#### injecty.invoke(fn/array)
Invoke a function injecting requested dependencies.
Optinally you can supply the arguments to inject as array notation
```js
var time = injecty.invoke(function (Date) {
return new Date().getTime()
})
console.log(time) // -> 1405170246959
```
Using the array injection notation, useful for minification
```js
var time = injecty.invoke(['Date', function (D) {
return new D().getTime()
}])
console.log(time) // -> 1405170246959
```
#### injecty.inject(fn/array)
Inject dependencies and return the partial function
```js
var time = injecty.inject(['Date', function (D) {
return new D().getTime()
}])
```
#### injecty.annotate(fn/array)
Returns an array of names which the given function is requesting for injection
```js
var injectables = injecty.annotate(function (Math, Date) {
...
})
console.log(injectables) // -> ['Math', 'Date']
```
```js
function fn(m, d) {
...
}
fn.$inject = ['Math', 'Date']
var injectables = injecty.annotate(fn)
console.log(injectables) // -> ['Math', 'Date']
```
#### injecty.injectable(name)
Checks if a dependency was already registered and it's available to be injected
#### injecty.satisfies(fn)
Checks if can safisty all the requested dependecies to inject
```js
inject.register('Math', Math)
inject.register('Date', Date)
inject.safisfies(function (Math, Date) {}) // -> true
```
#### injecty.remove(name)
Remove a registered dependency from the container
```js
injecty.remove('Math').injectable('Math') // -> false
```
#### injecty.flush()
Flush all registered dependencies in the container
```js
injecty.flush().injectable('Math') // -> false
```
#### injecty.dependencies()
Get an `array` of values with the registered dependency names in the container
## Contributing
Wanna help? Cool! It will be appreciated :)
You must add new test cases for any new feature or refactor you do,
always following the same design/code patterns that already exist
Tests specs are completely written in Wisp language.
Take a look to the language [documentation][wisp] if you are new with it.
You should follow the Wisp language coding conventions
