Pimp: Simple Dependency Injection Container
===========================================

[](#pimp-simple-dependency-injection-container)

*Pimp* is a PHP dependency injection container inspired by [Pimple](http://pimple.sensiolabs.org/), with a [Container Interop](https://github.com/container-interop/container-interop) turn to it.

Backwards compatibility note
----------------------------

[](#backwards-compatibility-note)

Version 3.0.0 has introduced a major backwards compatibility break to comply with container interop specification. On previous version of *Pimp* config values could be introduced in the container itself; this is no longer possible, please use a [config manager](https://github.com/glopezdetorre/config) instead.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Using *composer*, inside your project root run:

```
composer require gorka/pimp

```

Container
---------

[](#container)

Simple use case:

```
use Gorka\Pimp\Container;
use Gorka\Pimp\ServiceFactory;

$container = new Container([
    'serviceOne' => function ($c) {
        return new MyService();
    },
    'serviceTwo' => function ($c) {
        return new MyOtherService($c->get('serviceOne'));
    }
]);

$service = $container->get('serviceOne');

```

You may also add new services or service factories after initialization:

```
$container->add('ServiceThree', function() { return new MyAwesomeService(); });

```

By default, *Pimp* will return same instance each time you call *get()*. If you want to get a new instance each time you may use a *ServiceFactory* instead:

```
$service1 = $container->get('ServiceOne');
$service2 = $container->get('ServiceOne');
var_dump($service1 === $service2); // true

$container->add(
    'ServiceFour',
    ServiceFactory::create(
        function($c) {
            return new MyAwesomeService();
        }
    )
);

$service1 = $container->get('ServiceFour');
$service2 = $container->get('ServiceFour');
var_dump($service1 === $service2); // false

```
