Dependency injection resolving by name
In addition to @adem-caglin answer I'd like to post here some reusable code I've created for name-based registrations.
UPDATE Now it's available as nuget package.
In order to register your services you'll need to add following code to your Startup
class:
services.AddTransient<ServiceA>();
services.AddTransient<ServiceB>();
services.AddTransient<ServiceC>();
services.AddByName<IService>()
.Add<ServiceA>("key1")
.Add<ServiceB>("key2")
.Add<ServiceC>("key3")
.Build();
Then you can use it via IServiceByNameFactory
interface:
public AccountController(IServiceByNameFactory<IService> factory) {
_service = factory.GetByName("key2");
}
Or you can use factory registration to keep the client code clean (which I prefer)
_container.AddScoped<AccountController>(s => new AccountController(s.GetByName<IService>("key2")));
Full code of the extension is in github.
As @Tseng pointed, there is no built-in solution for named binding. However using factory method may be helpful for your case. Example should be something like below:
Create a repository resolver:
public interface IRepositoryResolver
{
IRepository GetRepositoryByName(string name);
}
public class RepositoryResolver : IRepositoryResolver
{
private readonly IServiceProvider _serviceProvider;
public RepositoryResolver(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
{
_serviceProvider = serviceProvider;
}
public IRepository GetRepositoryByName(string name)
{
if(name == "TestSuiteRepository")
return _serviceProvider.GetService<TestSuiteRepositor>();
//... other condition
else
return _serviceProvider.GetService<BaseRepositor>();
}
}
Register needed services in ConfigureServices.cs
services.AddSingleton<IRepositoryResolver, RepositoryResolver>();
services.AddTransient<TestSuiteRepository>();
services.AddTransient<BaseRepository>();
Finally use it in any class:
public class BaselineManager
{
private readonly IRepository _repository;
public BaselineManager(IRepositoryResolver repositoryResolver)
{
_repository = repositoryResolver.GetRepositoryByName("TestSuiteRepository");
}
}
