Class: Needle::Registry

Inherits:
Container show all
Defined in:
lib/needle/registry.rb

Overview

Registry is a specialization of Container, with additional functionality for bootstrapping basic services into a new registry. It also supports a #define! method for easily registering new services.

Usage:

require 'needle'

registry = Needle::Registry.new
registry.register( :foo ) { Foo.new }
registry.register( :bar ) { |c| Bar.new( c.foo ) }

bar = registry.bar

Constructor Details

#initialize(opts = {}) {|_self| ... } ⇒ Registry

Instantiate a new Registry. The options hash may include the following keys:

:logs

options used to initialize the logger factory. The value to this key should be another hash.

:parent

The parent container of this registry.

:name

The name of this registry.

If a block is given, the constructed registry instance is yielded to it.

Usage:

registry = Needle::Registry.new

or

registry = Needle::Registry.new do |reg|
  reg.register( :add ) { Adder.new }
end

or

registry = Needle::Registry.new(
  :logs => { :filename => "/dev/null" }
)

Yields:

  • (_self)

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method in the class Needle::Container

Class Method Details

.define(*parms, &block) ⇒ Object

Instantiate a new Registry (via #new) and immediately invoke #define using the given block.

Usage:

registry = Needle::Registry.define do |b|
  b.add { Adder.new }
  ...
end

adder = registry.add

Raises:

# File 'lib/needle/registry.rb', line 74

def self.define( *parms, &block )
  raise NeedleError, "needs a block" if block.nil?
  new( *parms ) { |reg| reg.define( &block ) }
end

.define!(*parms, &block) ⇒ Object

Instantiate a new Registry (via #new) and immediately invoke #define! using the given block.

Usage:

registry = Needle::Registry.define! do
  add { Adder.new }
  ...
end

adder = registry.add

Raises:

  new( *parms ) { |reg| reg.define!( &block ) }
end

Instance Method Details

#fullname ⇒ Object

Returns nil, unless the registry has a parent, in which case it acts like Container#fullname. Registries are usually unnamed containers.
