:description: Factory provider helps to implement dependency injection in Python. This page
|
||
demonstrates how to use Factory provider, inject the dependencies, and assemble
|
||
object graphs passing the injections deep inside. It also provides the examples
|
||
of the Abstract Factory pattern & provider and Factories Aggregation pattern.
|
||
|
||
.. currentmodule:: dependency_injector.providers

:py:class:`Factory` provider creates new objects.

:language: python
|

:lines: 3-
|
||
|
||
The first argument of the ``Factory`` provider is a class, a factory function or a method
|
||
that creates an object.
|
||
|
||
The rest of the ``Factory`` positional and keyword arguments are the dependencies.
|
||
``Factory`` injects the dependencies every time when creates a new object. The dependencies are
|
||
injected following these rules:
|
||
|
||
+ If the dependency is a provider, this provider is called and the result of the call is injected.
|
||
+ If you need to inject the provider itself, you should use the ``.provider`` attribute. More at
|
||
:ref:`factory_providers_delegation`.
|
||
+ All other dependencies are injected *"as is"*.
|
||
+ Positional context arguments are appended after ``Factory`` positional dependencies.
|
||
+ Keyword context arguments have the priority over the ``Factory`` keyword dependencies with the
|
||
same name.

``Factory`` provider can inject attributes. Use ``.add_attributes()`` method to specify
|
||
attribute injections.

|

|
||
Passing arguments to the underlying providers
|
||
---------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
``Factory`` provider can pass the arguments to the underlying providers. This helps when you need
|
||
to assemble a nested objects graph and pass the arguments deep inside.
|
||
|
||
Consider the example:
|
||
|
||
.. image:: images/factory_init_injections_underlying.png
|
||
|
||
To create an ``Algorithm`` you need to provide all the dependencies: ``ClassificationTask``,
|
||
``Loss``, and ``Regularizer``. The last object in the chain, the ``Regularizer`` has a dependency
|
||
on the ``alpha`` value. The ``alpha`` value varies from algorithm to algorithm:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: python
|
||
|
||
Algorithm(
|
||
task=ClassificationTask(
|
||
loss=Loss(
|
||
regularizer=Regularizer(
|
||
alpha=alpha, # <-- the dependency
|
||
),
|
||
),
|
||
),
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
|
||
``Factory`` provider helps to deal with the such assembly. You need to create the factories for
|
||
all the classes and use special double-underscore ``__`` syntax for passing the ``alpha`` argument:
|
||
|
||
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/providers/factory_init_injections_underlying.py
|
||
:language: python
|
||
:lines: 3-
|
||
:emphasize-lines: 44,49
|
||
|
||
When you use ``__`` separator in the name of the keyword argument the ``Factory`` looks for
|
||
the dependency with the same name as the left part of the ``__`` expression.
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: none
|
||
|
||
<dependency>__<keyword for the underlying provider>=<value>
|
||
|
||
If ``<dependency>`` is found the underlying provider will receive the
|
||
``<keyword for the underlying provider>=<value>`` as an argument.
|
||
|
||
.. _factory_providers_delegation:
|
||
|
||
Passing providers to the objects
|
||
--------------------------------
|
||
|
||
When you need to inject the provider itself, but not the result of its call, use the ``.provider``
|
||
attribute of the provider that you're going to inject.
|
||
|
||
.. image:: images/factory_delegation.png
|
||
|
||
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/providers/factory_delegation.py
|
||
:language: python
|
||
:lines: 3-
|
||
:emphasize-lines: 28
|
||
|
||
.. note:: Any provider has a ``.provider`` attribute.
|
||
|
||
.. _factory-string-imports:
|
||
|
||
String imports
|
||
--------------
|
||
|
||
``Factory`` provider can handle string imports:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: python
|
||
|
||
class Container(containers.DeclarativeContainer):
|
||
|
||
service = providers.Factory("myapp.mypackage.mymodule.Service")
|
||
|
||
You can also make a relative import:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: python
|
||
|
||
# in myapp/container.py
|
||
|
||
class Container(containers.DeclarativeContainer):
|
||
|
||
service = providers.Factory(".mypackage.mymodule.Service")
|
||
|
||
or import a member of the current module just specifying its name:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: python
|
||
|
||
class Service:
|
||
...
|
||
|
||
|
||
class Container(containers.DeclarativeContainer):
|
||
|
||
service = providers.Factory("Service")
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
``Singleton``, ``Callable``, ``Resource``, and ``Coroutine`` providers handle string imports
|
||
the same way as a ``Factory`` provider.
|
||
|
||
.. _factory-specialize-provided-type:
|
||
|
||
Specializing the provided type
|
||
------------------------------
|
||
|
||
You can create a specialized ``Factory`` provider that provides only specific type. For doing
|
||
this you need to create a subclass of the ``Factory`` provider and define the ``provided_type``
|
||
class attribute.
|
||
|
||
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/providers/factory_provided_type.py
|
||
:language: python
|
||
:lines: 3-
|
||
:emphasize-lines: 12-14
|
||
|
||
.. _abstract-factory:
|
||
|
||
Abstract factory
|
||
----------------
|
||
|
||
:py:class:`AbstractFactory` provider helps when you need to create a provider of some base class
|
||
and the particular implementation is not yet know. ``AbstractFactory`` provider is a ``Factory``
|
||
provider with two peculiarities:
|
||
|
||
+ Provides only objects of a specified type.
|
||
+ Must be overridden before usage.

|
||
.. _factory-aggregate-provider:
|
||
|
||
Factory aggregate
|
||
-----------------
|
||
|
||
:py:class:`FactoryAggregate` provider aggregates multiple factories.
|
||
|
||
.. seealso::
|
||
:ref:`aggregate-provider` – it's a successor of ``FactoryAggregate`` provider that can aggregate
|
||
any type of provider, not only ``Factory``.
|
||
|
||
The aggregated factories are associated with the string keys. When you call the
|
||
``FactoryAggregate`` you have to provide one of the these keys as a first argument.
|
||
``FactoryAggregate`` looks for the factory with a matching key and calls it with the rest of the arguments.
|
||

||

|
||
:language: python
|
||
:lines: 3-
|
||
:emphasize-lines: 33-37,47
|
||
|
||
You can get a dictionary of the aggregated providers using ``.providers`` attribute.
|
||
To get a game provider dictionary from the previous example you can use
|
||
``game_factory.providers`` attribute.
|
||
|
||
You can also access an aggregated factory as an attribute. To create the ``Chess`` object from the
|
||
previous example you can do ``chess = game_factory.chess("John", "Jane")``.
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
You can not override the ``FactoryAggregate`` provider.
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
When you inject the ``FactoryAggregate`` provider it is passed "as is".
|
||
|
||
To use non-string keys or string keys with ``.`` and ``-``, you can provide a dictionary as a positional argument:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: python
|
||
|
||
providers.FactoryAggregate({
|
||
SomeClass: providers.Factory(...),
|
||
"key.with.periods": providers.Factory(...),
|
||
"key-with-dashes": providers.Factory(...),
|
||
})
|
||
|
||
