Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

peppermint-di

Dependency injection container for TypeScript and JavaScript.

ci npm version license

Installation

yarn add peppermint-di

or

npm install --save peppermint-di

The gist

import { Container, injectable } from 'peppermint-di';

class SomeService {
    // ...
}

@injectable
class SomeClass {
    constructor(someService: SomeService) {
        // ...
    }
}


const container = new Container();

container.registerSingle(SomeService)

const myClass = container.get(SomeClass);

Credits

This project was originally based on this blog post by Yusuf Aytas as it appeared in this StackOverflow question.
The API is somewhat inspired by the excellent Simple Injector C# library.

Examples

TypeScript

Custom parameters

import { Container, injectable } from 'peppermint-di';

class SomeService {
    public name = 'default name';
}

@injectable
class MyClass {

    public myService: SomeService;

    constructor(myService: SomeService) {
        this.myService = myService;
    }
}

const container = new Container();

const customDep = new SomeService();
customDep.name = 'custom name';

const customParameters = new Map([
    [SomeService, customDep]
]);
const myClass = container.get(MyClass, { params: customParameters });

expect(myClass.myService).to.be.instanceOf(SomeService);
expect(myClass.myService.name).to.eql('custom name');

Interface registration

import { Container, i, injectable } from 'peppermint-di';

//
// the interface
//

interface ISomeService {
}

const ISomeService = Symbol('ISomeService');

//
// the concrete type
//

class ConcreteSomeService implements ISomeService {
}

//
// the class to resolve
//

@injectable
class MyClass {

    public myService: ISomeService;

    constructor(@i(ISomeService) myService: ISomeService) {
        this.myService = myService;
    }
}

//
// test
//

const container = new Container();
container.register(ISomeService, ConcreteSomeService);

const myClass = container.get(MyClass);

expect(myClass).to.be.instanceOf(MyClass);
expect(myClass.myService).to.be.instanceOf(ConcreteSomeService);

Instance initializers

import { Container, injectable } from 'peppermint-di';

class SomeService {
    public someFeatureFlag = false;
}

const container = new Container();

container.registerSingle(SomeService)
container.registerInitializer(SomeService, serviceInstance => {
    serviceInstance.someFeatureFlag = true;
});

const myService = container.get(SomeService);
expect(myService.someFeatureFlag).to.be.true;

JavaScript

Simple example

import { Container } from 'peppermint-di';

class SomeService {
    // ...
}

class SomeClass {
    constructor(someService) {
        // ...
    }
}


const container = new Container();

container.registerSingle('someService', SomeService);

const myClass = container.get(SomeClass);

Custom parameters

import { Container } from 'peppermint-di';

class SomeService {
    constructor() {
        this.name = 'default name';
    }
}

class MyClass {
    constructor(myService) {
        this.myService = myService;
    }
}

const container = new Container();

const customDep = new SomeService();
customDep.name = 'custom name';

const customParameters = new Map([
    ['myService', customDep]
]);
const myClass = container.get(MyClass, { params: customParameters });

expect(myClass.myService).to.be.instanceOf(SomeService);
expect(myClass.myService.name).to.eql('custom name');

API

You can find here a brief overview of the Container API.
For a more comprehensive review see the typing file.
You can also check out the library's unit tests as they contains examples for most use cases.

Container

Container key type:

type ContainerKey<T> = Constructor<T> | SimpleContainerKey;

type SimpleContainerKey = string | symbol;

Register a transient service.

Container.register<T>(key: Constructor<T>, type?: Constructor<T>): void;

Container.register<T>(key: SimpleContainerKey, type: Constructor<T>): void;

Container.registerFactory<T>(key: ContainerKey<T>, factory: Factory<T>): void;

Register a singleton service.

Container.registerSingle<T>(key: Constructor<T>, valueOrType?: T | Constructor<T>): void;

Container.registerSingle<T>(key: SimpleContainerKey, valueOrType: T | Constructor<T>): void;

Container.registerSingleFactory<T>(key: ContainerKey<T>, factory: Factory<T>): void;

Register an initializer.

type Initializer<T> = (instance: T) => void;

Container.registerInitializer<T>(key: ContainerKey<T>, initializer: Initializer<T>): void

Get an instance of T.

Container.get<T>(key: ContainerKey<T>, options?: ResolveOptions): T;

Resolve function arguments and call it.

Container.call(foo: Function, thisArg?: any, options?: ResolveOptions): any;

ResolveOptions

class ResolveOptions {

    /**
     * If set to 'true' will treat unregistered dependencies as optional
     * parameters and set their value to undefined.
     *
     * Default value: false
     */
    optionalParameters?: boolean;

    /**
     * Set to 'false' if you don't want the injector to automatically try to
     * construct unregistered constructors.
     *
     * Default value: true
     */
    constructUnregistered?: boolean;

    /**
     * Parameters specified here will be used directly instead of being resolved.
     */
    params?: Map<ContainerKey<any>, any>;
}
