Hey there! 👋 This is a super simple and flexible way to organize your Flutter app into modules, with a dependency injection features thrown in.

Features

• 🔌 Works with whatever router you love (Go Router, Auto Route, you name it!)
• 🎯 Keep your app tidy with a simple module system
• 💉 Easy dependency injection powered by auto_injector
• 🔄 Modules can talk to each other through imports
• 🚀 Modules load up and clean up smoothly
• 🎨 Drop in the ModuleWidget wherever you need it
• 🧪 Testing is a breeze with mock replacements
• 📊 Lightning-fast dependency resolution using directed acyclic graphs

Getting Started

Add to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  flutter_easy_di: <last version>

Usage

Creating a Module

Create a module by extending the EasyModule class:

class UserModule extends EasyModule {
  @override
  List<Type> imports = []; // Add other modules to import if needed

  @override
  FutureOr<void> registerBinds(InjectorRegister i) {
    // Register your dependencies
    i.addSingleton<UserRepository>(() => UserRepositoryImpl());
    i.addSingleton<UserService>(() => UserServiceImpl());
  }
}

Initializing Modules

Initialize and manage your modules using EasyDI.initModules():

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  //Register and initialize modules
  await EasyDI.initModules([
    UserModule(),
    AuthModule(),
  ]);
  
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

Registering Modules separately

You can register modules in any order from anywhere, as long as you register them before initializing them.

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  // Register CoreModule
  EasyDI.registerModules([CoreModule()]);

  // Register User and Auth modules
  EasyDI.registerModules([
    UserModule(),
    AuthModule(),
  ]);

  // Initialize all the registered modules
  await EasyDI.initRegisteredModules();
  
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

Accessing Dependencies

Use EasyModuleWidget to provide module access and EasyDI.get<T>() to retrieve dependencies:

class UserScreen extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return EasyModuleWidget<UserModule>(
      // Use builder to create a new context with the module available. This is not needed if your EasyModuleWidget is not in the same widget as the EasyDI.get<T>()
      child: Builder( 
        builder: (context) {
          // Without listening to changes
          final userService = EasyDI.get<UserService>(context);
          return UserContent(service: userService);
        },
      ),
    );
  }
}

Accessing Current Module

Use EasyModuleWidget to provide module access and EasyModule.of() to get the current module instance:

class UserScreen extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return ModuleWidget<UserModule>(
      child: Builder(
        builder: (context) {
          // Without listening to changes
          final userService = Module.get<UserService>(context);
          final userModule = Module.of(context);
          final String module = userModule.runtimeType.toString();
          return UserContent(service: userService);
        },
      ),
    );
  }
}

Listening to Module Changes

It's recommended to use listen: true when getting dependencies, especially if you're working with modules that might be reset or if you're using imported modules. This ensures your widget rebuilds when dependencies are updated:

class UserProfileWidget extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State<UserProfileWidget> createState() => _UserProfileWidgetState();
}

class _UserProfileWidgetState extends State<UserProfileWidget> {
  late UserService _userService;

  @override
  void didChangeDependencies() {
    super.didChangeDependencies();
    // With listening to changes - widget will rebuild when:
    // 1. The current module is reset
    // 2. Any imported module is disposed/reset
    _userService = EasyDI.get<UserService>(context, listen: true);
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Text(_userService.username);
  }
}

For example, if UserModule imports AuthModule, and you dispose AuthModule using:

await EasyDI.disposeModule<AuthModule>();

Any widget using listen: true with dependencies from UserModule will automatically rebuild with the new dependencies.

Module Dependencies

Modules can depend on other modules using the imports property:

class ProfileModule extends EasyModule {
  @override
  List<Type> imports = [UserModule]; // Import dependencies from UserModule

  @override
  FutureOr<void> registerBinds(InjectorRegister i) {
    i.addSingleton<ProfileService>(ProfileServiceImpl.new);
  }
}

Dependency Injection Types

The package supports different types of dependency injection:

• Singleton: addSingleton<T>() - Creates a single instance that persists throughout the app
• Lazy Singleton: addLazySingleton<T>() - Creates a singleton instance only when first requested
• Factory: add<T>() - Creates a new instance each time it's requested
• Instance: addInstance<T>() - Registers an existing instance
• Replace: replace<T>() - Replaces an existing registration (Useful for testing)

Logging

The package includes a built-in logging system that can be enabled/disabled as needed:

import 'package:flutter_easy_di/logger.dart';

// Enable logging (disabled by default)
Logger.enable();

// Disable logging
Logger.disable();

Logs will only be printed in debug mode, making it safe to leave logging code in production.
