[](#usage)

Example how to use this container

### Creating new container

[](#creating-new-container)

To create new container you can use code as follows

```
$container = new ApplicationContainer();
```

### Registering services

[](#registering-services)

Services are defined as array `[interface => class]` and have to be defined before you can resolve your classes.

```
protected array $services = [
    BaseServiceInterface::class => BaseService::class
];

// add services to container
foreach ($this->services as $k => $v) {
    $container->set($k, $v);
}
```

### Resolving classes

[](#resolving-classes)

With DI container you don't need to create new instances in constructor (as in example controller - check tests).

```
class MainController
{
    protected User $user;

    protected BaseServiceInterface $service;

    public function __construct(BaseServiceInterface $service, User $user)
    {
        $this->user = $user;
        $this->service = $service;
    }
}
```

now you can resolve controller with container

```
/** @var MainController $controller */
$controller = $container->resolve(MainController::class);
```
