Rioc

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rioc'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rioc

Usage

The user experience will be closer to C# Autofac framework. Suppose you want to build a webapp using the repository pattern, here's a typical usecase,

# Initialize a container
container = Rioc::RiocContainer.new

# Specify the controller to the IoC container, suppose your controller looks like the following
# 
# class BusinessController
#   def initialize(repository)
#     @repository = repository
#   end
#   
#   def save(text)
#     @repository.save(text)
#   end
# end
# 
# Typically for most web application frameworks, the controller is one instance per request, and it
# would translate to Transient scope in RIOC
container.register(:biz_controller, scope: Rioc::Bean::Scope::TRANSIENT) do |c| 
    BusinessController.new(c.resolve(:repository))
end

# Now you need to have the repository dependency setup so that it can be consumed by the controller
# and typically repository is Singleton as in Guice or Spring in Java. Suppose the repository looks
# like this
# 
# class Repository
#   def initialize(credential)
#     @credential = credential
#   end
# end
#
# And RIOC uses Singleton scope by default.
container.register(:repository) { |c| Repository.new(c.resolve(:credential)) }

# Now register the credential, let's assume the credential is an parameterless object
container.register(:credential) { |_| Credential.create("username", "password") }

# Build container
container.build_container

# Now we have all dependencies we need registered into the container, we can use them by
biz_con = container.resolve(:biz_controller)
biz_con.save("Hello RIOC")

# Of course you can also resolve repository and credential
repo = container.resolve(:repository)
cred = container.resolve(:credential)

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
