A simple, easy to follow PHP dependency injection container. Designed to be forked, modified, extended and hacked.

How to Use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

Although it isn't required to do so, a good practice is to split up the configuration for our container. In this example we'll use three files to create our container for the Monolog component.

Another good practice is to use class and interface paths as service names. This provides a stricter naming convention that gives us more information about the services.

In the service definitions file, we define three services. All of the services require constructor injection arguments. Some of these arguments are imported from the container parameters and some are defined directly. The logger service also requires two calls to the `pushHandler` method, each with a different handler service imported.
