Dim is a small, simple and powerful Dependency Injection Container for PHP:

```
use Dim\Container;
use Dim\Service;

class One { /* ... */ }

class Two { /* ... */ }

class Foo
{
    public function __construct(One $one, Two $two, $three)
    {
        // ...
    }
    // ...
}

// Instantiates the container
$container = new Container;
// Puts service that creates an instance of "One" to the container
$container->set(new Service('One'));
// Puts instance of "Two" to the container
$container->set(new Two);
// Puts service that creates an instance of "Foo" to the container
$container->set(new Service('Foo'));
// ...
// Instantiates "Foo" passing dependencies "One", "Two" and third argument "3" to the constructor
$three = $container->get('Foo', array('three' => 3));
```

Dim works with PHP 5.3 or later.
