Overriding of containers
------------------------
.. currentmodule:: dependency_injector.containers
Containers can be overridden by other containers. This, actually, means that
all of the providers from overriding container will override providers with
the same names in overridden container.
There are two ways to override :py:class:`DeclarativeContainer` with another
container:
- Use :py:meth:`DeclarativeContainer.override` method.
- Use :py:func:`override` class decorator.
Example of overriding container using :py:meth:`DeclarativeContainer.override`
method:
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/containers/override_declarative.py
:language: python
:linenos:
Example of overriding container using :py:func:`override` decorator:
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/containers/override_declarative_decorator.py
:language: python
:linenos:
Also there are several useful :py:class:`DeclarativeContainer` methods and
properties that help to work with container overridings:
- :py:attr:`DeclarativeContainer.overridden` - tuple of all overriding
containers.
- :py:meth:`DeclarativeContainer.reset_last_overriding()` - reset last
overriding provider for each container providers.
- :py:meth:`DeclarativeContainer.reset_override()` - reset all overridings
for each container providers.
:py:class:`DynamicContainer` has exactly the same functionality, except of
:py:func:`override` decorator.
