<!-- quick_start -->

An unintrusive library for dependency injection in modern Python.
Inspired by [Funq][1], Punq is a dependency injection library you can understand.

- No global state
- No decorators
- No weird syntax applied to arguments
- Small and simple code base with 100% test coverage and developer-friendly comments.

## Installation

Punq is available on the [cheese shop][2]

```shell
pip install punq
```

Documentation is available on [Read the docs][3].

## Quick Start

Punq avoids global state, so you must explicitly create a container in the entrypoint of your application:

```python
import punq

container = punq.Container()
```

Once you have a container, you can register your application's dependencies. In the simplest case, we can register any arbitrary object with some key:

```python
container.register("connection_string", instance="postgresql://...")
```

We can then request that object back from the container:

```python
conn_str = container.resolve("connection_string")
```

Usually, though, we want to register some object that implements a useful service.:

```python
class ConfigReader:
    def get_config(self):
        pass

class EnvironmentConfigReader(ConfigReader):
    def get_config(self):
        return {
        "logging": {
            "level": os.env.get("LOGGING_LEVEL", "debug")
        },
        "greeting": os.env.get("GREETING", "Hello world")
        }

container.register(ConfigReader, EnvironmentConfigReader)
```

Now we can `resolve` the `ConfigReader` service, and receive a concrete implementation:

```python
config = container.resolve(ConfigReader).get_config()
```

If our application's dependencies have their _own_ dependencies, Punq will inject those, too:

```python
class Greeter:
    def greet(self):
        pass


class ConsoleGreeter(Greeter):
    def __init__(self, config_reader: ConfigReader):
        self.config = config_reader.get_config()

    def greet(self):
        print(self.config['greeting'])


container.register(Greeter, ConsoleGreeter)
container.resolve(Greeter).greet()

```

If you just want to resolve an object without having any base class, that's okay:

```python
class Greeter:
    def __init__(self, config_reader: ConfigReader):
        self.config = config_reader.get_config()

    def greet(self):
        print(self.config['greeting'])

container.register(Greeter)
container.resolve(Greeter).greet()
```

And if you need to have a singleton object for some reason, we can tell punq to register a specific instance of an object:

```python
class FileWritingGreeter:
    def __init__(self, path, greeting):
        self.path = path
        self.message = greeting
        self.file = open(self.path, 'w')

    def greet(self):
        self.file.write(self.message)


one_true_greeter = FileWritingGreeter("/tmp/greetings", "Hello world")
container.register(Greeter, instance=one_true_greeter)
```

You might not know all of your arguments at registration time, but you can provide them later:

```python
container.register(Greeter, FileWritingGreeter)
greeter = container.resolve(Greeter, path="/tmp/foo", greeting="Hello world")

```

Conversely, you might want to provide arguments at registration time, without adding them to the container:

```python
container.register(Greeter, FileWritingGreeter, path="/tmp/foo", greeting="Hello world")
```
