Injekt

Next gen dependency injection library for Kotlin.

@Provide fun jsonParser() = JsonParser()

interface Http

@Provide class RealHttp : Http

@Provide class Api(private val http: Http, private val jsonParser: JsonParser)

@Provide class Repository(private val api: Api)

val repo = inject<Repository>()

Setup

plugins {
  id("com.ivianuu.injekt") version latest_version
}

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
  // core runtime
  implementation("com.ivianuu.injekt:core:${latest_version}")
  // optional - common utilities
  implementation("com.ivianuu.injekt:common:${latest_version}")
}

Provide injectables

You can provide dependencies by annotating them with @Provide:

// classes and objects
@Provide class MyApi(baseUrl: BaseUrl)

// constructors
class MyService @Provide constructor(logger: Logger) {
  @Provide constructor()
}

// functions
@Provide fun okHttp(authenticator: Authenticator): OkHttpClient = ...

// properties and local variables
@Provide val apiKey: ApiKey = ...

// value parameters
fun run(@Provide config: Config) {
}

Multi injection

You can inject all injectables of a given type by injecting a List<T>

@Provide fun singleElement(): String = "a"
@Provide fun multipleElements(): Collection<String> = listOf("b", "c")

fun main() {
  inject<List<String>>() == listOf("a", "b", "c") // true
}

All elements which match E or Collection<E> will be included in the resulting list.

Scoping

The core of Injekt doesn't know anything about scoping, but there is a api in the common module. You have to annotate your class or the return type of a function or a property with @Scoped tag.

@Provide @Scoped<UiScope> class Db

Then you have to provide a Scope instance.

// use a object as name for the scope
object UiScope

Then you can inject your class.

@Provide val uiScope = Scope<UiScope>()

fun onCreate() {
  // use ui scoped dependency
  val db = inject<Db>()
}

Modules

There is no @Module annotation in Injekt instead a module is just a provided class which contains more @Provide declarations

// object module which is marked with @Provide
// can be used to organize injectables
@Provide object DatabaseModule {
  @Provide fun databaseFile(): File = ...
}

// module with parameters which can be provided later
class NetworkModule(val apiKey: String) {
  @Provide fun api(): Api = ...
}

fun main() {
  @Provide val networkModule = NetworkModule(if (isDebug) ... else ...)
  inject<Api>()
}

Components

There is also no @Component annotation in Injekt instead a component can be declared like this

@Provide class ActivityComponent(
  val api: Api,
  val createFragmentComponent: (Fragment, Scope<FragmentScope>) -> FragmentComponent
)

Function injection

Sometimes you want to delay the creation, need multiple instances, want to provide additional parameters, or to break circular dependencies. You can do this by injecting a function.

// inject a function to create multiple Tokens
fun run(tokenFactory: () -> Token = inject) {
  val tokenA = tokenFactory()
  val tokenB = tokenFactory()
}

// inject a function to create a MyViewModel with the additional String parameter
@Composable fun MyScreen(viewModelFactory: (String) -> MyViewModel = inject) {
  val viewModel = remember { viewModelFactory("user_id") }
}

// break circular dependency
@Provide class Foo(val bar: Bar)
@Provide class Bar(foo: (Bar) -> Foo) {
   val foo = foo(this)
}

// inject functions in a inline function to create a conditional Logger with zero overhead
@Provide inline fun logger(isDebug: IsDebug, loggerImpl: () -> LoggerImpl, noOpLogger: () -> NoOpLogger): Logger =
  if (isDebug) loggerImpl() else noOpLogger()

Distinguish between types

Sometimes you have multiple injectables of the same type Injekt will need help to keep them apart here are two strategies:

Value classes:

@JvmInline value class PlaylistId(val value: String)
@JvmInline value class TrackId(val value: String)

fun loadPlaylistTracks(playlistId: PlaylistId = inject, trackId: TrackId = inject): List<Track> = ...

Tags:

@Tag 
@Target(AnnotationTarget.CLASS, AnnotationTarget.CONSTRUCTOR, AnnotationTarget.TYPE)
annotation class PlaylistId
@Tag
@Target(AnnotationTarget.CLASS, AnnotationTarget.CONSTRUCTOR, AnnotationTarget.TYPE)
annotation class TrackId

fun loadPlaylistTracks(playlistId: @PlaylistId String = inject, trackId: @TrackId String = inject): List<Track> = ...

Optionally you can add a typealias for your tag to make it easier to use

@Tag @Target(AnnotationTarget.CLASS, AnnotationTarget.CONSTRUCTOR, AnnotationTarget.TYPE)
annotation class PlaylistIdTag
typealias PlaylistId = @PlaylistIdTag String
@Tag @Target(AnnotationTarget.CLASS, AnnotationTarget.CONSTRUCTOR, AnnotationTarget.TYPE)
annotation class TrackIdTag
typealias TrackId = @TrackIdTag String

fun loadPlaylistTracks(playlistId: PlaylistId = inject, trackId: TrackId = inject): List<Track> = ...

More complex uses can be found in my essentials project(base project for my apps)
