Simply Container for using Dependency Injection pattern in JavaScript

Container.js is lightweight library (<2kb when minified), designed to facilitate how you can implement Dependency Injection pattern in your JavaScript applications. It works both versions of ECMAScript - 2015 (ES6) and 5 (ES5).

In order to use this package, you need to install it in your project:

via Bower (by default will be used ES5 version)

bowerinstallContainer.js--save

via NPM (by default will be used ES2015 version)

npminstallnode-container.js--save

or download it manually:

• ES5 version,
• ES2015 version.

<scriptsrc="/path/to/Container.min.js"></script><scriptsrc="/path/to/Es2015-Container.js"></script>

• Removed callback from Container.get method
• Gulp instead of Grunt
• Support for ES2015

voidContainer - Constructor - arguments: [Object<string, function> elements]

Argument elements is optional. It allows to create default bindings for existing classes.

Example:

varappContainer=newContainer({"Date": Date});

booleanContainer.prototype.has - arguments: [string name]

Return true if Container contains element with given name.

Example:

console.log(appContainer.has('Date'));// trueconsole.log(appContainer.has('MyObject'));// false

voidContainer.prototype.bind - arguments: [string name, function instance, string[]|function[] parameters]

Binds given instance with given name. Each value in parameters array should be name of element in Container or function which return value of parameter.

Example:

appContainer.bind('Window',Window,['Date']);appContainer.bind('Door',Door,[function(){returnMath.random();}]);

voidContainer.prototype.singleton - arguments: [string name, function instance, string[]|function[] parameters]

Binds given object as singleton in container. Parameters are the same like Container.bind method.

Example:

appContainer.singleton('Date',newDate());appContainer.get('Date').setFullYear(2014);appContainer.get('Date').getFullYear();// 2014

mixedContainer.prototype.get - arguments: [string name]

Returns instance of earlier bound instance.

Example:

appContainer.get('Window');// an Window instance

voidContainer.prototype.remove - arguments: [string name]

Removes link between Container and given name.

Example:

appContainer.remove('Date');appContainer.has('Date');// false
