Question: Global Object #3

Closed manuel-schoebel closed 9 years ago

manuel-schoebel commented 9 years ago

Hi @DominikGuzei,

is there a good way to have a global object or one that is automatically injected everywhere?

The reason is that I have a Logger-Module which I would need anytime.

Cheers, Manuel

PS: I am still enjoying space! :)

Hey @DerMambo Currently there is no such pattern available by default, but you can completely customize the Space.Injector used by your Space.Application, just create your own instance and hand it over when creating your app instance:

class CustomInjector extends Space.Injector
  # override the way injections happen
  injectInto: (value) ->
    super # normal behavior first
    value.Logger = MyGlobalLoggerInstance

customInjector = new CustomInjector
myApp = new MySpaceApp injector: customInjector # hand custom injector over to app instance

Hope this helps!

PS: Awesome! I will release 4.0 of space:ui next week, cleaned up and with support for strongly-checked events :-)

Cool, yes that helps. I will do that and publish it to the world! :P

Nice, looking forward to 4.0 :)

Great! :smile: If you need more control or custom ways to provide dependencies to your code you can also add custom providers to the injector instance. I wrote a little bit about it in the Space.Injector docs
