code-distortion/di-caller is PHP package that calls callables/callbacks/hooks, using dependency injection to resolve their parameters.

This package is useful for calling callbacks when your code provides a set of possible parameters, but you don't know which ones are actually required by the callback.

For example, when you're working on a package that lets callers register callbacks. You can use this package to call those callbacks, passing in the relevant parameters your package wants to provide.

It doesn't use a Dependency Container like those used in frameworks. It resolves the parameters for each callable individually. It doesn't store them for other callables to use later.

Installation

Install the package via composer:

composer require code-distortion/di-caller

Usage

There are three steps to using this package:

  • Create a DICaller instance, passing a callable to it,
  • Register the parameters you'd like to make available to the callable via dependency injection,
  • Execute the callable using ->call().

You can register parameters by type:

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn(Request $request, User $user) => "hello $user->name ({$request->getIp()})";

$user = new User();
$request = new Request();
$shoppingCart = new ShoppingCart();

$result = DICaller::new($callable)
    ->registerByType($user)         // <<<
    ->registerByType($request)      // <<<
    ->registerByType($shoppingCart) // <<<
    ->call(); // 'hello Bob (192.168.1.1)'

You can register parameters by name:

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn($param1, $param2) => "$param1 $param2";

$result = DICaller::new($callable)
    ->registerByName('param1', 'hello') // <<<
    ->registerByName('param2', 'world') // <<<
    ->call(); // 'hello world'

You can register parameters by position (starting from 0):

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn($param1, $param2) => "$param1 $param2";

$result = DICaller::new($callable)
    ->registerByPosition(0, 'hello') // <<<
    ->registerByPosition(1, 'world') // <<<
    ->call(); // 'hello world'

Union types are supported:

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn(int|float $param1) => $param1; // <<<

$result = DICaller::new($callable)
    ->registerByType(1.1) // <<<
    ->call(); // 1.1

Note: Union types might not be processed in the same order as they're written in the signature, as DICaller uses Reflection which may alter the order.

Intersection types are supported:

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn(ParentClass&ChildClass $param1) => $param1; // <<<

$result = DICaller::new($callable)
    ->registerByType(new ChildClass()) // <<<
    ->call(); // ChildClass

Variadic parameters are supported, but are treated like normal parameters:

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn(int $param1, int ...$param2) => func_get_args(); // <<<

$result = DICaller::new($callable)
    ->registerByName('param1', 1)
    ->registerByName('param2', 2)
    ->call(); // [1, 2]

Validation

You can check that the callable is actually callable, and the parameters resolve before calling ->call(), using ->isCallable():

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn($param1, $param2) => "$param1 $param2";

$caller = DICaller::new($callable);
if ($caller->isCallable()) { // false
    $result = $caller->call();
}

And you can check and call it in one step using ->callIfPossible():

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn($param1, $param2) => "$param1 $param2";

$result = DICaller::new($callable)->callIfPossible(); // null

Note: This will return null when the call isn't possible, which isn't distinguishable from a successful call that returns null.

Exceptions

If the callable isn't actually callable, a DICallerInvalidCallableException is thrown when ->call() is called:

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = 'not a callable';

$result = DICaller::new($callable)->call(); // throws DICallerInvalidCallableException

If the parameters can't be resolved, a DICallerUnresolvableParametersException is thrown when ->call() is called:

use CodeDistortion\DICaller\DICaller;

$callable = fn($param1, $param2) => "$param1 $param2";

$result = DICaller::new($callable)->call(); // throws DICallerUnresolvableParametersException
