pydio 0.4.1

Simple and functional dependency injection toolkit for Python

PyDio

Simple and functional dependency injection toolkit for Python.

About

PyDio aims to be simple, yet still powerful, allowing you to feed dependencies inside your application in a flexible way. PyDio design is based on simple assumption, that dependency injection can be achieved using simple key-to-function map, where key specifies type of object you want to inject and function is a factory function that creates instances of that type.

In PyDio, this is implemented using providers and injectors. You use providers to configure your key-to-function mapping, and then you use injectors to perform a lookup of a specific key and creation of the final object.

Here's a simple example:

import abc

from pydio.api import Provider, Injector

provider = Provider()

@provider.provides('greet')
def make_greet():
    return 'Hello, world!'

def main():
    injector = Injector(provider)
    greet_message = injector.inject('greet')
    print(greet_message)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Now you can save the snippet from above as example.py file and execute to see the output:

$ python example.py
Hello, world!

Key features

• Support for any hashable keys: class objects, strings, ints etc.
• Support for any type of object factories: function, coroutine, generator, asynchronous generator.
• Automatic resource management via generator-based factories (similar to pytest's fixtures)
• Multiple environment support: testing, development, production etc.
• Limiting created object's lifetime to user-defined scopes: global, application, use-case etc.
• No singletons used, so there is no global state...
• ...but you still can create global injector on your own if you need it :-)

Installation
