What?
-----

[](#what)

It's a simple glue layer which injects services registered in a [League\\Container](http://container.thephpleague.com) into a ZF1 controller.

Heavily based on [@weierophinney](https://github.com/weierophinney)'s now-many-moons-ago blog post "[A Simple Resource Injector for ZF Action Controllers](https://mwop.net/blog/235-A-Simple-Resource-Injector-for-ZF-Action-Controllers.html)".

How?
----

[](#how)

1. Install the [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) package:

    ```
    composer require adamlundrigan/ldc-zf1-di-league-container:1.*@stable

    ```
2. Register the helper in your ZF1 application bootstrap:

    ```
    protected function _initContainer()
    {
        $container = new League\Container\Container();
        // Fill your container
        return $container;
    }

    protected function _initContainerResourceInjector()
    {
        $this->bootstrap('container');

        Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::addHelper(
            new \LdcZf1DiLeagueContainer\DependencyInjector()
        );
    }

    ```
3. In each controller, define a list of dependencies to inject:

    ```
    class FooController extends Zend_Controller_Action
    {
        public $dependencies = array(
            'db',
            'layout',
            'navigation',
        );
    }

    ```

    If you use a non-numeric key for any value of `$dependencies` the injector will use that as the controller property to inject into.
4. Profit! The injector will create a public property on the controller instance for each named service.
