from pypendency.loaders.py_loader import PyLoader
# Manually
container_builder.set('random_object', object())
container_builder.set_definition(
Definition('another_random_object', 'builtins.object')
)
# File by file
YamlLoader(container_builder).load('/absolute/path/to/yaml/example.yaml')
PyLoader(container_builder).load('/absolute/path/to/python_file/example.py')
PyLoader(container_builder).load_by_module_name('python_file.example')
# Specifying a directory
YamlLoader(container_builder).load_dir('/absolute/path/to/yaml/')
PyLoader(container_builder).load_dir('/absolute/path/to/python_file/')
# path_to_yaml/example_di.yaml
example_class_identifier:
fqn: example.class.namespace.ClassName
args:
- '@another_example_class_identifier'
kwargs:
example_kwarg: '@random_object'
# python/file/namespace/example_di.py
from pypendency.argument import Argument
from pypendency.builder import ContainerBuilder
from pypendency.definition import Definition
def load(container_builder: ContainerBuilder):
container_builder.set("literal_string", "example_literal_string")
container_builder.set_definition(
Definition(
"another_example_class_identifier",
"another.example.class.namespace.AnotherClassName",
[
Argument.no_kw_argument("@literal_string"),
Argument("kw_arg_example", "@literal_string"),
]
)
)
