README

Achieve compatibility and interoperability among different container objects.

The library discovers available PSR-11 container implementations by searching for a list of known classes that implement the relevant interfaces, and returns an instance of the first one found. It supports binding, instantiation, and allows executing specific callbacks or logic when a class or dependency is resolving (i.e., instantiated or injected).

Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require nacosvel/container-interop

Usage

Default Method Names

If your container uses the standard method names (bind, make, resolving), you can simply call:

use Nacosvel\Container\Interop\Discover;

Discover::container();

discovers available PSR-11 container implementations by searching for a list of known classes that implement the relevant interfaces

Custom Method Names

If your container uses different method names, specify them as follows:

use Nacosvel\Container\Interop\Discover;

Discover::container(
    container: $container,
    bind: 'customBindMethod',
    make: 'customMakeMethod',
    resolving: 'customResolvingMethod'
);

• container: The container instance you want to work with.
• bind: The name of the method used for binding dependencies.
• make: The name of the method used for creating instances.
• resolving: The name of the method used for resolving dependencies.

Accessing the Application

Let's look at a simple example:

use Nacosvel\Container\Interop\Application;

$application = Application::getInstance();

The application function returns the Application instance:

$application = application();

Accessing the Container

Once configured, third-party packages can access the container using:

use Nacosvel\Container\Interop\Application;

$container = Application::getInstance()->getContainer();

If needed, you may specify which Container instance you would like to access:

$container = application()->getContainer();

Accessing the Service

You may pass a class or interface name to resolve service from the container:

$cache = application(Cache::class);
$cache = application()->make(Cache::class);

This method ensures compatibility with various container implementations without worrying about their specific methods.
