How to inject services in AdonisJs V5 - Constructor, Method

In this post i will give you 2 examples for injection of services to adonisjs v5 constructors, and methods

create new provider: MyServiceProvider.ts

import { ApplicationContract } from '@ioc:Adonis/Core/Application'
import {MyServiceImp} from "Providers/MyServiceImp";

export default class MyServiceProvider {

  public static needsApplication = true

  constructor (protected application: ApplicationContract) {
     console.log('i was called');
  }

  public register () {
     this.application.container.bind('@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService', () => {
        console.log('@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService');
        return new MyServiceImp('http');
     });

     this.application.container.bind('MyNameSpace/MyService', () => {
        console.log('MyNameSpace/MyService');
        return new MyServiceImp('https');
     });
  }

  public async boot () {
    // All bindings are ready, feel free to use them
     console.log('ready');

  }

  public async ready () {
    // App is ready
  }

  public async shutdown () {
    // Cleanup, since app is going down
  }
}

create new interface: MyServiceContract.ts

declare module '@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService' {

   export interface MyServiceContract {
      protocol?: string;
   }
}

create new interface implementation: MyServiceImp.ts

import {MyServiceContract} from "@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService";

export class MyServiceImp implements MyServiceContract {
   protocol: string;

   constructor(protocol: string) {
      this.protocol = protocol;
   }
}

add to file adonisrc.json in providers array:

"./providers/MyServiceProvider"

usage:

iam giving here 2 namespacing examples, you can choose how ever you prefer

add to controller/service - what ever you need


import {inject} from "@adonisjs/fold";
import {MyServiceContract} from "@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService";



// constructor injection, pay attention to array indexes
// this will log from service provider register method
// console.log('@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService'); - for example


@inject(['@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService', 'MyNameSpace/MyService'])
export default class MyController {
    constructor(protected service1: MyServiceContract, protected service2: MyServiceContract) {
      console.log(service1, service2);
   }


// option 2 - method injection
// same here, 2 example of getting service from ioc by namespace

@inject([null, '@ioc:MyNameSpace/MyService', 'MyNameSpace/MyService'])
   public async index({inertia, request}: HttpContextContract, myService: MyServiceContract, myService2: MyServiceContract) {
      console.log(myService, myService2);

   }

}

And How Inject Service in other Service please ?

serjo agro • Aug 31 '21 • Edited

not possible from what i saw, i tried multiple ways

EDIT:
correction, it can be done,

inside your service implementation of the second service:

// @ts-ignore
import {MyServiceContract} from "Providers/MyServiceContract";

inside second service provider register method:

public register() {

  this.myService = this.application.container.resolveBinding('MyNameSpace/MyService')
  console.log(this.myService);

  this.application.container.bind('MyNameSpace/MyService2', () => {
     return new MyServiceImp2('https', this.myService);
  });

}
