Declarative containers ---------------------- .. currentmodule:: dependency_injector.containers :py:class:`DeclarativeContainer` is inversion of control container that could be defined in declarative manner. It should cover most of the cases when list of providers that would be included in container is deterministic (container will not change its structure in runtime). Declarative containers have to extend base declarative container class - :py:class:`dependency_injector.containers.DeclarativeContainer`. Declarative container's providers have to be defined like container's class attributes. Every provider in container has name. This name should follow ``some_provider`` convention, that is standard naming convention for attribute names in Python. .. note:: Declarative containers have several features that could be useful for some kind of operations on container's providers, please visit API documentation for getting full list of features - :py:class:`dependency_injector.containers.DeclarativeContainer`. Here is an simple example of defining declarative container with several factories: .. image:: /images/containers/declarative.png :width: 85% :align: center .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/containers/declarative.py :language: python :linenos: Example of declarative containers inheritance: .. image:: /images/containers/declarative_inheritance.png :width: 100% :align: center .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/containers/declarative_inheritance.py :language: python :linenos: Example of declarative containers's provider injections: .. image:: /images/containers/declarative_injections.png :width: 100% :align: center .. literalinclude:: ../../examples/containers/declarative_injections.py :language: python :linenos:
