README

Aka, the dog house. This container implements PSR-11 and ArrayAccess.

Installation

composer require bulldog/container

Usage

You should check to see if the container has an entry for that ID before you try to get that entry.

Key / Value

<?php
include 'vendor/autoload.php';

$container = new Bulldog\Container;

$value = $container->set('id', 'value');
echo $value;
// value

$result = $container->has('id');
var_dump($result);
// bool(true)

$value = $container->get('id');
echo $value;
// value

Key / Closure

If the value associated with the key is callable, then the container will call it for you, returning the contents of the closure. This allows you to lazy load classes or services.

<?php
include 'vendor/autoload.php';

$container = new Bulldog\Container;

class Example
{
    public function test()
    {
        echo 'it works!';
    }

}

// Using a closure
$container['service'] = function() {
    return new Example;
};

$service = $container['service'];
$service->test();
// it works!

// Storing an object (not lazy loaded)
$container['service'] = new Example;
$service = $container['service'];
$service->test();
// it works!

Dependency Injection Container

<?php

include 'vendor/autoload.php';

$container = new Bulldog\Container;

class Required
{
    private $test = "Hello";

    public function getTest()
    {
        return $this->test;
    }
}

class Example
{
    private $required;

    public function __construct(Required $required)
    {
        $this->required = $required;
    }

    public function run()
    {
        echo $this->required->getTest();
    }

}
$container['required'] = function() {
    return new Required;
};

$container['example'] = function($c) {
    return new Example($c['required']);
};

$e = $container['example'];
$e->run();
