Unfortunately the code quality checks on the Scrutinizer CI side don't yet support PHP 8.2. ### Installation [](#installation) To add this package to your project, just get it via composer: ``` composer require gixx/worstpractice-dependency-injection ``` ### Usage [](#usage) To use it, you will need only a configuration as in the example: ``` namespace MyNamespace; use WorstPractice\Component\DependencyInjection\ConfigParser\ArrayParser; use WorstPractice\Component\DependencyInjection\ServiceLibrary; use WorstPractice\Component\DependencyInjection\Container; $config = [ 'ServiceAlias' => [ 'class' => \Namespace\To\MyClass::class, 'arguments' => [ \Namespace\To\OtherClassInterface::class, 'literalParameter' => 1234, 'otherLiteralParameter' => false ], 'shared' => false ], \Namespace\To\OtherClassInterface::class => [ 'class' => \Namespace\To\OtherClass::class, 'shared' => true ], \DateTimeZone::class => [ 'arguments' => [ 'param' => 'Europe/Berlin' ], 'shared' => true ], \DateTime::class => [ 'calls' => [ ['setTimezone', [\DateTimeZone::class]] ], 'shared' => true ], 'Auth' => [ // empty, will be determined later ], 'OtherServiceAlias' => [ 'inherits' => 'ServiceAlias', 'calls' => [ ['someMethod', ['parameter1' => 4543, 'parameter2' => [0, 1, 2], \DateTime::class]] ], 'shared' => true ], 'LoginController' => [ 'class' => \Namespace\To\Controller\Login:class, 'arguments' => [ 'Auth', 'OtherServiceAlias' ] ] ]; $container = new Container(new ServiceLibrary(new ArrayParser()), $config); $authService = $_ENV['environment'] === 'dev' ? new \Namespace\To\DebugAuthService() : new \Namepace\To\Strict\AuthenticationService(); $isShared = true; $container->set('Auth', $authService, $isShared); $controller = $container->get('LoginController'); ``` This DIC will instantiate any class only when it is requested or being referenced by a requested class. It also supports adding instance into the DIC. It comes in handy when the script needs an instance based on some calculation. ### Testing [](#testing) The package contains a simple Docker setup to be able to run tests. For this you need only run the following: ``` docker-compose up -d docker exec -it worstpractice-dependency-injection-php-fpm php composer.phar install docker exec -it worstpractice-dependency-injection-php-fpm php composer.phar check ``` The following tests will run: - PHP lint - PHP Mess Detector - PHP Unit - PHPStan (max level, no ignored Errors) [![PHP Unit](docs/images/unit.gif)](docs/images/unit.gif) [![PHPStan](docs/images/stan.gif)](docs/images/stan.gif) The following tests form the PHP 7.4 version are now ignored, since they don't yet have PHP 8.2 support: - PHP-CS-Fixer - PHP Code Sniffer ### Health Score 33 — LowBetter than 74% of packages Maintenance31 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity6 Limited adoption so far Community9 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity72 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 95% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
