A fast and safe manual dependency injector for Kotlin and Android.
Scout is a runtime dependency injection library. It provides excellent Domain Specific Language for factory declarations and configurable dependency graph validator. The dependency graph resolves it's nodes really fast despite the runtime approach.
Scout is actively maintained by Yandex. The library is currently in beta, as we want to get feedback from users and to test a couple of promissing ideas. The library API is quite stable, but we do not exclude the possibility that we will make minor changes to it.
Actually Scout is a dependency container, so let's fill that container with some definitions. Scope is responsible for storing definitions and created instances.
val appScope = scope("app-scope") {
singleton<BooksDataStore> {
BooksDataStore()
}
reusable<BookMapper> {
BookMapper()
}
factory<BooksRepository> {
BooksRepository(store = get(), mapper = get())
}
}
Scope prohibits random access to it's content. The only way to get some instance from scope is to declare component.
object AppComponent : Component(appScope) {
fun repository(): BooksRepository = get()
}
As soon as component is instantiated we are able to access our dependency graph.
fun main() = AppComponent
.repository()
.sync()
Our program is ready, let's test the dependency graph.
class DependencyGraphTest {
@Test
fun `Check dependency graph is consistent`() {
Validator.configure()
.withConsistencyCheck()
.validate(ComponentCollector())
}
}
Now every new component in our program will be automatically collected for testing.
Validate 1 components using ConsistencyChecker
✔ Consistency check passed without errors
// Gradle: build.gradle
dependencies {
implementation "com.yandex.scout:scout-core:$scout_version" // main library
testImplementation "com.yandex.scout:scout-validator:$scout_version" // validator and built-in checks
testImplementation "com.yandex.scout:classgraph-collector:$scout_version" // built-in component collector
}
