Inversion of Control

PreviousCreate a custom regionNextThird party DI containers

Last updated 3 years ago

Presentation toolkit depends on Inversion of Control and Dependency Injection principles but does not force the end user to use any predefined IoC toolkit.

By default Radical uses the Microsoft dependency injection seam, exposed to users by the IServiceCollection and IServiceProvider interfaces.

Support for is provided throught generic host support, all containers supported by the Microsoft extensions infrastructure can be used with Radical.

Registering custom dependencies

To register custom dependencies into the IoC conatiner a dependency installer is required:

  • Create a class that implements the IDependenciesInstaller interface. The class can be created in any assembly that is deployed in the application bin folder, the assembly scanning process will find it during the application startup pahse

  • At startup the class Install method will be invoked and custom registrations can be performed against the provided IServiceCollection instance.

The following is a custom installer sample class:

class DefaultInstaller : IDependenciesInstaller
{
   public void Install(BootstrapConventions conventions, IServiceCollection services, IEnumerable<Type> assemblyScanningResults)
   {
      services.AddSingleton<MyType>();
   }
}
