Injecting attributes, items, or call methods of the provided instance
|
||
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. currentmodule:: dependency_injector.providers
|
||
|
|
||
|
In this section you will know how to inject provided instance attribute or item into the other
|
||
|
provider.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It also describes how to call a method of the provided instance and use the result of
|
||
|
this call as an injection value.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/providers/provided_instance.py
|
||
|

|
To use the feature you should use the ``.provided`` attribute of the injected provider. This
|
||
|
attribute helps to specify what happens with the provided instance. You can retrieve an injection
|
||
|
value from:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- an attribute of the provided instance
|
||
|
- an item of the provided instance
|
||
|
- a call of the provided instance method
|
||
|
|
||
|
When you use the call of the provided instance method you can specify the injections into this
|
||
|
method like you do with any other provider.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can do nested constructions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/providers/provided_instance_complex.py
|
||
|
:language: python
|
||
|
:emphasize-lines: 24-30
|
||
|
:lines: 3-
|
||
|
|
||
|
Attribute ``.provided`` is available for the providers that return instances. Providers that
|
||
|
have ``.provided`` attribute:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- :py:class:`Callable` and its subclasses
|
||
|
- :py:class:`Factory` and its subclasses
|
||
|
- :py:class:`Singleton` and its subclasses
|
||
|
- :py:class:`Object`
|
||
|
- :py:class:`List`
|
||
|
- :py:class:`Selector`
|
||
|
- :py:class:`Dependency`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Special providers like :py:class:`Configuration` or :py:class:`Delegate` do not have the
|
||
|
``.provided`` attribute.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Provider subclasses
|
||
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
When you create a new provider subclass and want to implement the ``.provided`` attribute, you
|
||
|
should use the :py:class:`ProvidedInstance` provider.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code-block:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
@property
|
||
|
def provided(self):
|
||
|
"""Return :py:class:`ProvidedInstance` provider."""
|
||
|
return ProvidedInstance(self)
|
||
|
|
||
|
In all other cases you should not use :py:class:`ProvidedInstance`, :py:class:`AttributeGetter`,
|
||
|
:py:class:`ItemGetter`, or :py:class:`MethodCaller` providers directly. Use the ``.provided``
|
||
|
attribute of the injected provider instead.
