A small, type-safe DI library optimized for Hono.js.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> This package is optimized for [Hono.js](https://github.com/honojs/hono) and is not designed for large projects. If you require advanced DI features such as automatic circular injection, dynamic binding, and multi-binding, etc. you may need a dedicated DI library.

## Installation

```bash
# npm
npm install hono-simple-di
# pnpm
pnpm add hono-simple-di
# bun
bun add hono-simple-di
```

## Usage

### Basic usage

#### 1. Define a service

First, you define a service that you want to inject. This could be any class or function that handles your business logic.

```ts
// services/UserService.ts
export class UserService {
  findOne(id: number) {
    return { id, name: `User ${id}` };
  }
}
```

#### 2. Create a Dependency

Next, you create a dependency for your service, specifying how it should be initialized. You can also choose whether it should be a singleton (default) or multi-instance (per request).

```ts
import { Dependency } from "hono-simple-di";
import { UserService } from "./services/UserService";

// Define the dependency for UserService
const userServiceDep = new Dependency(() => new UserService());
```

#### 3. Inject dependency via middleware

Use the middleware method to inject the dependency into your Hono.js context. Once injected, the service will be accessible through the context's c.get method.

```ts
import { Hono } from "hono";
import { userServiceDep } from "./dependencies";

const app = new Hono()
  // Use the dependency as middleware
  .use(userServiceDep.middleware("userService"))

.get("/", (c) => {
    // Retrieve the injected service
    const { userService } = c.var;
    // or const userService = c.get('userService')

const user = userService.findOne(1);

return c.json(user);
  });
```

#### 4. Override Service with injection

You can override the service instance at runtime using the injection method. This is useful in testing or when dynamically providing service instances.

```ts
// Inject a custom service instance
userServiceDep.injection({
  findOne(id: number) {
    return { id, name: "Injected User" };
  },
});
```

---

### Reference another dependency

```ts
const postServiceDep = new Dependency(
  async (c) => new PostService(await userServiceDep.resolve(c)),
);
```

---

### A service can also be something other than a class

For example, using headers from `c.req.headers`.

```ts
const uaDep = new Dependency(
  (c) => new UAParser(c.req.header("User-Agent") ?? ""),
  {
    scope: "request",
  },
);

const app = new Hono()
  .use(uaDep.middleware("ua"))

.get("/", (c) => {
    const ua = c.get("ua");
    return c.text(`You are running on ${ua.getOS().name}!`);
  });
```

---

### Using request scope service

If you need a new instance of the service for each request (multi-instance), set the scope option to `request`.

```ts
const requestIdDep = new Dependency((c) => Math.random(), {
  scope: "request",
});

const app = new Hono()
  // Inject a unique ID for each request
  .use(requestIdDep.middleware("requestId"))

.get("/id", (c) => {
    const requestId = c.get("requestId");
    return c.text(`Request ID: ${requestId}`);
  });
```

---

### Do not provide an initialization function

```ts
const userServiceDep = new Dependency<UserService | null>(() => null);
```

## API

### `Dependency` Interface

```ts
interface Dependency<Service> {
  constructor(
    /** A function to initialize the service. */
    private serviceInitializer: (c: Context) => MaybePromise<Service>,
    private opts?: {
      /**
       * The scope of the dependency.
       * @default 'default'
       * @remarks
       * - 'default': Service will be initialized only once.
       * - 'request': Service is initialized once per request and reused across requests.
       */
      scope?: Scope
    },
  ): Dependency

/**
   * Injects a service instance directly. Useful for overriding the default service.
   * @param service - The service instance to be injected.
   * @returns this - The instance of the dependency for chaining.
   */
  injection(service: Service): this

/**
   * Clear injected service.
   */
  clearInjected(): this {
    this.service = undefined;
    return this;
  }

/**
   * Creates a middleware that injects the service into the context.
   * @param contextKey - Optionally override the key used to store the service in the context.
   * @returns MiddlewareHandler - A Hono.js middleware function.
   */
  middleware<ContextKey extends string>(
    /** The key used to store the service in the context. */
    contextKey?: ContextKey,
  ): MiddlewareHandler<{
    Variables: {
      [key in ContextKey]: Service
    }
  }>
}
```
