Fluent registration api

The fluent API allows the following operations:

• WithName - Sets the name of the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(config => config.WithName("Drizzt"));

  Allows to resolve a service by it's name like: container.Resolve<Drow>("Drizzt")

• WithLifetime - Sets a custom lifetime for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(config => config.WithLifetime(new DrowLifeTime()));

• WithSingletonLifetime - Sets a singleton lifetime for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(config => config.WithSingletonLifetime());

• WithScopedLifetime - Sets a scoped lifetime for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(config => config.WithScopedLifetime());

• WhenHas - Sets an attribute condition for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(config => config.WhenHas<NeutralGoodAttribute>());

• WhenDependantIs - Sets a parent target condition for the registration.

  container.Register<IWeapon, Twinkle>(config => config.WhenDependantIs<Drizzt>());

• When - sets a custom user-defined condition for the registration.

  container.Register<IWeapon, Twinkle>(config => config.When(typeInfo => typeInfo.ParentType == typeof(Drizzt)));

• WithInjectionParameters - Sets injection parameters for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => 
    context.WithInjectionParameters(new InjectionParameter { Value = new Icingdeath(), Name = "rightHand" });

• WithInjectionParameter - Sets an injection parameter for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithInjectionParameter(rightHand, new Icingdeath());

• WithFactory - Sets a delegate factory for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow>(context => context.WithFactory(resolver => new Drizzt(resolver.Resolve<IWeapon>()));

• WithInstance - Sets an existing instance for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow>(context => context.WithInstance(new Drizzt()));

  By passing true for the wireUp the container will perform member and method injection on the registered instance. context.WithInstance(new Drizzt(), wireUp: true)

• WithAutoMemberInjection - Enables the auto member injection and sets the rule for it.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithAutoMemberInjection());

  Custom auto member injection rules:

  • PropertiesWithPublicSetter - With this flag the container will perform auto injection on properties which has a public setter.

    context.WithAutoMemberInjection(Rules.AutoMemberInjectionRules.PropertiesWithPublicSetter)

  • PropertiesWithLimitedAccess - With this flag the container will perform auto injection on properties which has a non public setter as well.

    context.WithAutoMemberInjection(Rules.AutoMemberInjectionRules.PropertiesWithLimitedAccess)

  • PrivateFields - With this flag the container will perform auto injection on private fields too.

    context.WithAutoMemberInjection(Rules.AutoMemberInjectionRules.PrivateFields)

  Member selection filter:

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithAutoMemberInjection(filter: member => member.Type != typeof(IDrow)));

  With the filter above, the container will exclude all the class members with the type IDrow from auto injection.

• WithConstructorSelectionRule - Sets the constructor selection rule for the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithConstructorSelectionRule());

  Custom constructor selection rules:

  • PreferMostParameters - Prefers the constructor which has the longest parameter list.

    context.WithConstructorSelectionRule(Rules.ConstructorSelection.PreferMostParameters)

  • PreferLeastParameters - Prefers the constructor which has the shortest parameter list.

    context.WithConstructorSelectionRule(Rules.ConstructorSelection.PreferLeastParameters)

  • Custom

    context.WithConstructorSelectionRule(constructors => { /* custom constructor sorting logic */ })

• WithConstructorByArgumentTypes - Selects a constructor by its argument types, which will be used during the resolution.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithConstructorByArgumentTypes(typeof(IWeapon)));

• WithConstructorByArguments - Selects a constructor by its arguments for resolution, those arguments will be used to invoke the selected constructor.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithConstructorByArguments(new Twinkle()));

• WithoutDisposalTracking - Force disables the disposal tracking on the registration.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithoutDisposalTracking());

• WithFinalizer - Sets a custom cleanup delegate which will be invoked when the scope holding the instance is being disposed.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithFinalizer(drizzt => drizzt.CallGuenhwyvarBack()));

• WithInitializer - Sets a custom initializer delegate which will be invoked when the given service is being resolved.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithInitializer(drizzt => drizzt.SummonGuenhwyvar()));

• InjectMember - marks a member (property / field) as a dependency, which should be filled by the container.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.InjectMember(drizzt => drizzt.RightHand, "Twinkle"));

  The second parameter used to set the name of the dependency.

• ReplaceExisting - Tells the container that it should replace an existing registration if there is any with the given one.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.ReplaceExisting());

• AsImplementedTypes - The service will be mapped to all of its implemented interfaces and base types.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.AsImplementedTypes());

• AsServiceAlso - Binds the currently configured registration to an additional service type.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.AsServiceAlso<ICreature>());

• InNamedScope - Sets a scope name condition for the registration, it will be used only when a scope with the same name requests it.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.InNamedScope("CompanionsOfTheHall"));

• DefinesScope - This registration would be used as a logical scope for its dependencies, the dependencies registered with the InNamedScope setting with the same name will be preferred during the resolution.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.DefinesScope("DualWield"));

• WithPerResolutionRequestLifetime - Sets the lifetime to ResolutionRequestLifetime. That means this registration will behave like a singleton within every resolution request.

  container.Register<IDrow, Drizzt>(context => context.WithPerResolutionRequestLifetime());
