Declarative catalogs
--------------------
:py:class:`dependency_injector.catalogs.DeclarativeCatalog` is a catalog of
providers that could be defined in declarative manner. It should cover most
of the cases when list of providers that would be included in catalog is
deterministic (catalog will not change its structure in runtime).
Declarative catalogs have to extend base declarative catalog class -
:py:class:`dependency_injector.catalogs.DeclarativeCatalog`.
Providers have to be defined like catalog's class attributes. Every provider in
catalog has name. This name should follow ``some_provider`` convention,
that is standard naming convention for attribute names in Python.
.. note::
It might be useful to add such
``""":type: dependency_injector.providers.Provider -> Object1"""``
docstrings just on the next line after provider's definition. It will
help code analyzing tools and IDE's to understand that variable above
contains some callable object, that returns particular instance as a
result of its call.
Here is an simple example of declarative catalog with several factories:

:py:class:`dependency_injector.catalogs.DeclarativeCatalog` has several
features that could be useful for some kind of operations on catalog's
providers (please visit API docs for getting full list of feautes -
:py:class:`dependency_injector.catalogs.DeclarativeCatalog`):
Example:
