A package of Ts.ED framework. See website: https://tsed.io/

Installation

You can get the latest release and the type definitions using npm:

npm install --save @tsed/di

Important! TsExpressDecorators requires Node >= 6, Express >= 4, TypeScript >= 2.0 and the experimentalDecorators, emitDecoratorMetadata, types and lib compilation options in your tsconfig.json file.

    "lib": ["es2016"],
    "typeRoots": ["./node_modules/@types"],
    "module": "commonjs",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true
  },
  "exclude": ["node_modules"]

Introduction

Basically, almost everything may be considered as a provider – service, factory, intereceptors, and so on. All of them can inject dependencies, meaning, they can create various relationships with each other. But in fact, a provider is nothing else than just a simple class annotated with an @Injectable() decorator.

Usage

Here is a basic usage to declare an injectable service to another one:

import {Injectable} from "@tsed/di";
import {Calendar} from "./models/calendar";

@Injectable()
export class CalendarsService {
  private readonly calendars: Calendar[] = [];

  create(calendar: Calendar) {
    this.calendars.push(calendar);
  }

  findAll(): Calendar[] {
    return this.calendars;
  }
}

Here's a CalendarsService, a basic class with one property and two methods. The only new trait is that it uses the @Injectable() decorator. The @Injectable() attaches the metadata, thereby Ts.ED knows that this class is a provider.

Now we have the service class already done, let's use it inside a controller:

import {Controller, Post, Body, Get} from "@tsed/common";
import {CalendarsService} from "./CalendarsService";
import {Calendar} from "./models/Calendar";

@Controller("/calendars")
export class CalendarCtrl {
  constructor(private readonly calendarsService: CalendarsService) {}

  @Post()
  async create(@Body() calendar: Calendar) {
    this.calendarsService.create(calendar);
  }

  @Get()
  async findAll(): Promise<Calendar[]> {
    return this.calendarsService.findAll();
  }
}

Note: Controller isn't a part of @tsed/di. @Controller decorator is exposed by @tsed/common package because it's a specific provider used by the Ts.ED framework. Ts.ED DI allow you to define your own Provider and decorator.

Finally, we can load the injector and use:

import {InjectorService} from "@tsed/di";
import {CalendarCtrl} from "./CalendarCtrl";

async function bootstrap() {
  const injector = new InjectorService();

  // Load all providers registered via @Injectable decorator
  await injector.load();

  const calendarController = injector.get<CalendarCtrl>();

  await calendarController.create(new Calendar());

  // And finally destroy injector and his instances (see injector hooks)
  await injector.destroy();
}

bootstrap();

Custom providers

To organize your code Ts.ED DI provide different kind of providers:

• Provider can be declared with @Injectable,
• Service can be declared with @Service,
• Interceptor can be declared with @Interceptor,
• Factory and Value can be declared with registerFactory and registerValue.
