## **container-ioc**
is a [Dependency Injection](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependency_injection) / [Inversion of Control (IoC) container](http://martinfowler.com/articles/injection.html) package for Javascript and Node.js applications powered by Typescript . It manages the dependencies between classes, so that applications stay easy to change and maintain as they grow.

### Features:
* Well-known Angular DI API.
* No external dependencies.
* [Life Time control](#life-time-control).
* [Hierarchical containers](#hierarchical-containers).
* Resolves values using Classes, [Factories](#using-factories) and [Values](#using-values).
* Descriptive error messages.
* 97% test coverage.
### Examples:
* [examples/javascript](examples/javascript)
* [examples/typescript](examples/typescript)
### Installation:
```
npm install --save container-ioc
```
### Basics:
> Code examples below are written in Typescript. Check [examples/javascript](examples/javascript) for examples written in Javascript.
#### Step 1. Define your interfaces and types.
> Possible values for types: **Symbol**, **string**, **Object**.
```typescript
interface IApplication {
run(): void;
}
interface IService {
serve(): void;
}
const TApplication = Symbol('IApplication');
const TService = Symbol('IService');
```
#### Step 2. Declare dependencies with decorators **Injectable** and **Inject**.
```typescript
import { Injectable, Inject } from 'container-ioc';
@Injectable()
export class Application implements IApplication {
constructor(@Inject(TService) private service: IService) {}
run(): void {
this.service.serve();
}
}
@Injectable()
export class Service implements IService {
serve(): void {
// serves
}
}
```
#### Step 3. Create a container and register types in there.
```typescript
import { Container } from 'container-ioc';
let container = new Container();
container.register([
{ token: TApplication, useClass: Application },
{ token: TService, useClass: Service }
]);
```
#### Step 4. Resolve value from the container.
```typescript
let app = container.resolve(TApplication);
app.run();
```
#### Step 2 for Javascript.
> Since Javascript does not support parameter decorators, use alternative API for declaring dependencies. In this case we don't use **Inject** decorator. See [examples/javascript](examples/javascript) for more.
```javascript
@Injectable([TService])
class Service {
constructor(service) {
this.service = service;
}
}
```
### Life Time control
> By default, containers resolve singletons when using **useClass** and **useFactory**.
Default life time for all items in a container can be set by passing an option object to it's contructor with **defailtLifeTime** attribute. Possible values: **LifeTime.PerRequest** (resolves instances) and **LifeTime.Persistent** (resolves singletons);
```typescript
import { LifeTime } from 'container-ioc';
const container = new Container({
defaultLifeTime: LifeTime.PerRequest
});
```
> You can also specify life time individually for each item in a container by specifying **lifeTime** attribute.
```typescript
container.register([
{
token: TService,
useClass: Service,
lifeTime: LifeTime.PerRequest
}
]);
```
```typescript
container.register([
{
token: TService,
useFactory: () => {
return {
serve(): void {}
}
},
lifeTime: LifeTime.Persistent
}
]);
```
### Hierarchical containers
> If a container can't find a value within itself, it will look it up in ascendant containers. There a 3 ways to set a parent for a container.
###### 1. Container.createChild() method.
```typescript
const parentContainer = new Container();
const childContainer = parentContainer.createChild();
```
###### 2. Container.setParent() method.
```typescript
const parent = new Container();
const child = new Container();
child.setParent(parent);
```
###### 3. Via Container's constructor with options.
```typescript
const parent = new Container();
const child = new Container({
parent: parent
});
```
### Using Factories
```typescript
/* Without injections */
container.register([
{
token: 'TokenForFactory',
useFactory: () => {
return 'any-value';
}
}
]);
/* With injections */
container.register([
{ token: 'EnvProvider', useClass: EnvProvider },
{
token: 'TokenForFactory',
useFactory: (envProvider) => {
// do something
return 'something';
},
inject: ['EnvProvider']
}
]);
```
### Using Values
```typescript
container.register([
{ token: 'IConfig', useValue: {}}
]);
```
### Shortcut for Classes
```typescript
container.register([
App
]);
```
Is the same as:
```typescript
container.register([
{ token: App, useClass: App }
]);
```
