carafe

Crazy simple dependency container.

def. a wide-mouthed glass or metal bottle with a lip or spout, for holding and serving dependencies

A little inspiration taken from @travi/ioc.

Usage

Create a Carafe instance, add dependencies to it, and get them back out where needed.

// simple dependency providing
 
// provider.mjs
import Carafe from 'carafe'
 
const container = new Carafe();
container.register('water', 'fresh and cool');
export default container;
 
 
// status.mjs
import container from 'provider.mjs';
 
// get happens in the function so it always gets the current value
const waterStatus = () => container.get('water');
export default waterStatus;
 
 
// status.mjs, alternatively using inject
import container from 'provider.mjs';
 
// the function returned always gets the updated dependency
const waterStatus = container.inject(['water'], (water) => water);
export default waterStatus;
 
 
// consumer.mjs
import status from 'status.mjs';
console.log(status()); // fresh and cool

You can also opt in to dependency replacement by passing true as the only argument to Carafe.

// dependency replacement
 
// provider.mjs
import Carafe from 'carafe'
const allowReplace = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'test'; // optionally enable replacement
const container = new Carafe(allowReplace);
container.register('water', 'fresh and cool');
export default container;
 
 
// status.mjs does not change
const waterStatus = container.inject(['water'], (water) => water);
export default waterStatus;
 
 
// then in your tests...
import container from 'provider.mjs';
import status from 'status.mjs';
 
container.replace('water', 'mock water');
console.log(status()); // mock water
container.restore('water'); // or to restore all mocks, use restore()
console.log(status()); // fresh and cool

Methods

Carafe instances should be newed up, and the instance returned will have the following methods. You can call Carafe() as well, and it will return a new instance for you.

Carafe([enableReplacement])

Creates and returns a new instance of Carafe. If enableReplacement is true, dependencies can be replaced.

register(name, payload)

Registered a new dependency by name. name should be a string, and the method will throw if it's not.

get(name)

Returns a registered dependency by name. If there is no matching depdendency, the method will throw.

inject(dependencies[], function)

Takes an array of named depdendencies, passing them in order as arguments to function. Returns the original function with the depdendencies partially applied.

replace(name, payload)

Only available if enableReplacement is true

Used to replace a dependency's value in a recoverable way. replace can be called multiple times, and the resulting value when get is used will always be whatever the last value provided was. Use restore to restore the original dependency's payload.

restore([name])

Only available if enableReplacement is true

Used to restore a given dependency to its original registered value, undoing any replace calls. If no name is provided, all dependencies are restored.
