It helps implement the dependency injection principle. Key features of the Dependency Injector : • **Providers**. Provides Factory , Singleton , Callable , Coroutine , Object , List , Dict , Configuration , Resource , Dependency , and Selector providers that help assemble your objects. See _. • **Overriding**. Can override any provider by another provider on the fly. This helps in testing and configuring dev/stage environment to replace API clients with stubs etc. See _. • **Configuration**. Reads configuration from yaml , ini , and json files, pydantic settings, environment variables, and dictionaries. See _. • **Resources**. Helps with initialization and configuring of logging, event loop, thread or process pool, etc. Can be used for per-function execution scope in tandem with wiring. See _. • **Containers**. Provides declarative and dynamic containers. See _. • **Wiring**. Injects dependencies into functions and methods. Helps integrate with other frameworks: Django, Flask, Aiohttp, Sanic, FastAPI, etc. See _. • **Asynchronous**. Supports asynchronous injections. See _. • **Typing**. Provides typing stubs, mypy -friendly. See _. • **Performance**. Fast. Written in Cython . • **Maturity**. Mature and production-ready. Well-tested, documented, and supported. .. code-block:: python from dependency_injector import containers, providers from dependency_injector.wiring import Provide, inject class Container(containers.DeclarativeContainer): config = providers.Configuration() api_client = providers.Singleton( ApiClient, api_key=config.api_key, timeout=config.timeout, ) service = providers.Factory( Service, api_client=api_client, ) @inject def main(service: Service = Provide[Container.service]) -> None: ... if __name__ == "__main__": container = Container() container.config.api_key.from_env("API_KEY", required=True) container.config.timeout.from_env("TIMEOUT", as_=int, default=5) container.wire(modules=[__name__]) main() # <-- dependency is injected automatically with container.api_client.override(mock.Mock()): main() # <-- overridden dependency is injected automatically When you call the main() function the Service dependency is assembled and injected automatically. When you do testing, you call the container.api_client.override() method to replace the real API client with a mock. When you call main() , the mock is injected. You can override any provider with another provider. It also helps you in a re-configuring project for different environments: replace an API client with a stub on the dev or stage. With the Dependency Injector , object assembling is consolidated in a container. Dependency injections are defined explicitly. This makes it easier to understand and change how an application works. .. figure:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/ets-labs/python-dependency-injector/img/di-readme.svg :target: https://github.com/ets-labs/python-dependency-injector Visit the docs to know more about the _.

The power of the framework is in its simplicity. Dependency Injector is a simple tool for the powerful concept. Frequently asked questions -------------------------- What is dependency injection? • dependency injection is a principle that decreases coupling and increases cohesion Why should I do the dependency injection? • your code becomes more flexible, testable, and clear 😎 How do I start applying the dependency injection? • you start writing the code following the dependency injection principle • you register all of your application compon…
