Specialization of catalogs -------------------------- .. currentmodule:: dependency_injector.containers :py:class:`DeclarativeCatalog` and :py:class:`DynamicCatalog` could be specialized for any kind of needs via declaring its subclasses. One of such `builtin` features is a limitation to :py:class:`DeclarativeCatalog` (and :py:class:`DynamicCatalog`) provider type. Next example shows usage of this feature with :py:class:`DeclarativeCatalog` in couple with feature of :py:class:`dependency_injector.providers.Factory` for limitation of its provided type: Listing of `services.py`: .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/catalogs/declarative_provider_type/services.py :language: python :linenos: Listing of `catalog.py`: .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/catalogs/declarative_provider_type/catalog.py :language: python :linenos: Limitation to provider type could be used with :py:class:`DynamicCatalog` as well. Next example does the same that previous one, but use :py:class:`DynamicCatalog` instead of :py:class:`DeclarativeCatalog`: Listing of `services.py`: .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/catalogs/dynamic_provider_type/services.py :language: python :linenos: Listing of `catalog.py`: .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/catalogs/dynamic_provider_type/catalog.py :language: python :linenos:
