Class yii\di\Container

Implementsyii\base\Configurable
Available since version2.0
Source Code https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/di/Container.php

Container implements a dependency injection container.

A dependency injection (DI) container is an object that knows how to instantiate and configure objects and all their dependent objects. For more information about DI, please refer to Martin Fowler's article.

Container supports constructor injection as well as property injection.

To use Container, you first need to set up the class dependencies by calling set(). You then call get() to create a new class object. The Container will automatically instantiate dependent objects, inject them into the object being created, configure, and finally return the newly created object.

By default, Yii::$container refers to a Container instance which is used by Yii::createObject() to create new object instances. You may use this method to replace the new operator when creating a new object, which gives you the benefit of automatic dependency resolution and default property configuration.

Below is an example of using Container:

namespace app\models;

use yii\base\BaseObject;
use yii\db\Connection;
use yii\di\Container;

interface UserFinderInterface
{
    function findUser();
}

class UserFinder extends BaseObject implements UserFinderInterface
{
    public $db;

    public function __construct(Connection $db, $config = [])
    {
        $this->db = $db;
        parent::__construct($config);
    }

    public function findUser()
    {
    }
}

class UserLister extends BaseObject
{
    public $finder;

    public function __construct(UserFinderInterface $finder, $config = [])
    {
        $this->finder = $finder;
        parent::__construct($config);
    }
}

$container = new Container;
$container->set('yii\db\Connection', [
    'dsn' => '...',
]);
$container->set('app\models\UserFinderInterface', [
    'class' => 'app\models\UserFinder',
]);
$container->set('userLister', 'app\models\UserLister');

$lister = $container->get('userLister');

// which is equivalent to:

$db = new \yii\db\Connection(['dsn' => '...']);
$finder = new UserFinder($db);
$lister = new UserLister($finder);

For more details and usage information on Container, see the guide article on di-containers.

Method Details

Hide inherited methods

__call() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__call()

Calls the named method which is not a class method.

This method will check if any attached behavior has the named method and will execute it if available.

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when an unknown method is being invoked.

public mixed __call ( $name, $params )
$name string

The method name

$params array

Method parameters

return mixed

The method return value

throws yii\base\UnknownMethodException

when calling unknown method

                public function __call($name, $params)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $object) {
        if ($object->hasMethod($name)) {
            return call_user_func_array([$object, $name], $params);
        }
    }
    throw new UnknownMethodException('Calling unknown method: ' . get_class($this) . "::$name()");
}

            
__clone() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__clone()

This method is called after the object is created by cloning an existing one.

It removes all behaviors because they are attached to the old object.

public void __clone ( )

                public function __clone()
{
    $this->_events = [];
    $this->_eventWildcards = [];
    $this->_behaviors = null;
}

            
__construct() public method

Defined in: yii\base\BaseObject::__construct()

Constructor.

The default implementation does two things:

  • Initializes the object with the given configuration $config.
  • Call init().

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

  • the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like $config here.
  • call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.
public void __construct ( $config = [] )
$config array

Name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

                public function __construct($config = [])
{
    if (!empty($config)) {
        Yii::configure($this, $config);
    }
    $this->init();
}

            
__get() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__get()

Returns the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a getter: return the getter result
  • a property of a behavior: return the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $value = $component->property;.

See also __set().

public mixed __get ( $name )
$name string

The property name

return mixed

The property value or the value of a behavior's property

throws yii\base\UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

if the property is write-only.

                public function __get($name)
{
    $getter = 'get' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $getter)) {
        // read property, e.g. getName()
        return $this->$getter();
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name)) {
            return $behavior->$name;
        }
    }
    if (method_exists($this, 'set' . $name)) {
        throw new InvalidCallException('Getting write-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
    }
    throw new UnknownPropertyException('Getting unknown property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
}

            
__isset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__isset()

Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: return whether the property is set
  • a property of a behavior: return whether the property is set
  • return false for non existing properties

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing isset($component->property).

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php.

public boolean __isset ( $name )
$name string

The property name or the event name

return boolean

Whether the named property is set

                public function __isset($name)
{
    $getter = 'get' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $getter)) {
        return $this->$getter() !== null;
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name)) {
            return $behavior->$name !== null;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

            
__set() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__set()

Sets the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: set the property value
  • an event in the format of "on xyz": attach the handler to the event "xyz"
  • a behavior in the format of "as xyz": attach the behavior named as "xyz"
  • a property of a behavior: set the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $component->property = $value;.

See also __get().

public void __set ( $name, $value )
$name string

The property name or the event name

$value mixed

The property value

throws yii\base\UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

if the property is read-only.

                public function __set($name, $value)
{
    $setter = 'set' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $setter)) {
        // set property
        $this->$setter($value);
        return;
    } elseif (strncmp($name, 'on ', 3) === 0) {
        // on event: attach event handler
        $this->on(trim(substr($name, 3)), $value);
        return;
    } elseif (strncmp($name, 'as ', 3) === 0) {
        // as behavior: attach behavior
        $name = trim(substr($name, 3));
        $this->attachBehavior($name, $value instanceof Behavior ? $value : Yii::createObject($value));
        return;
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canSetProperty($name)) {
            $behavior->$name = $value;

        }
    }
    if (method_exists($this, 'get' . $name)) {
        throw new InvalidCallException('Setting read-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
    }
    throw new UnknownPropertyException('Setting unknown property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
}

            
__unset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__unset()

Sets a component property to be null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: set the property value to be null
  • a property of a behavior: set the property value to be null

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing unset($component->property).

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.unset.php.

public void __unset ( $name )
$name string

The property name

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

if the property is read only.

                public function __unset($name)
{
    $setter = 'set' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $setter)) {
        $this->$setter(null);
        return;
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canSetProperty($name)) {
            $behavior->$name = null;
            return;
        }
    }
    throw new InvalidCallException('Unsetting an unknown or read-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
}

            
attachBehavior() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehavior()

Attaches a behavior to this component.

This method will create the behavior object based on the given configuration. After that, the behavior object will be attached to this component by calling the yii\base\Behavior::attach() method.

See also detachBehavior().

public yii\base\Behavior attachBehavior ( $name, $behavior )
$name string

The name of the behavior.

$behavior string|array|yii\base\Behavior

The behavior configuration. This can be one of the following:

return yii\base\Behavior

The behavior object

                public function attachBehavior($name, $behavior)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    return $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
}

            
attachBehaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehaviors()

Attaches a list of behaviors to the component.

Each behavior is indexed by its name and should be a yii\base\Behavior object, a string specifying the behavior class, or an configuration array for creating the behavior.

See also attachBehavior().

public void attachBehaviors ( $behaviors )
$behaviors array

List of behaviors to be attached to the component

                public function attachBehaviors($behaviors)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($behaviors as $name => $behavior) {
        $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
    }
}

            
behaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::behaviors()

Returns a list of behaviors that this component should behave as.

Child classes may override this method to specify the behaviors they want to behave as.

The return value of this method should be an array of behavior objects or configurations indexed by behavior names. A behavior configuration can be either a string specifying the behavior class or an array of the following structure:

'behaviorName' => [
    'class' => 'BehaviorClass',
    'property1' => 'value1',
    'property2' => 'value2',
]

Note that a behavior class must extend from yii\base\Behavior. Behaviors can be attached using a name or anonymously. When a name is used as the array key, using this name, the behavior can later be retrieved using getBehavior() or be detached using detachBehavior(). Anonymous behaviors can not be retrieved or detached.

Behaviors declared in this method will be attached to the component automatically (on demand).

public array behaviors ( )
return array

The behavior configurations.

                public function behaviors()
{
    return [];
}

            
build() protected method

Creates an instance of the specified class.

This method will resolve dependencies of the specified class, instantiate them, and inject them into the new instance of the specified class.

protected object build ( $class, $params, $config )
$class string

The class name

$params array

Constructor parameters

$config array

Configurations to be applied to the new instance

return object

        }
    }
}

            
get() public method

Returns an instance of the requested class.

You may provide constructor parameters ($params) and object configurations ($config) that will be used during the creation of the instance.

If the class implements yii\base\Configurable, the $config parameter will be passed as the last parameter to the class constructor; Otherwise, the configuration will be applied after the object is instantiated.

Note that if the class is declared to be singleton by calling setSingleton(), the same instance of the class will be returned each time this method is called. In this case, the constructor parameters and object configurations will be used only if the class is instantiated the first time.

public object get ( $class, $params = [], $config = [] )
$class string|yii\di\Instance

A list of constructor parameter values. Use one of two definitions:

  • Parameters as name-value pairs, for example: ['posts' => PostRepository::class].
  • Parameters in the order they appear in the constructor declaration. If you want to skip some parameters, you should index the remaining ones with the integers that represent their positions in the constructor parameter list. Dependencies indexed by name and by position in the same array are not allowed.
$config array

A list of name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties.

return object

This method allows invoking a callback and let type hinted parameter names to be resolved as objects of the Container. It additionally allows calling function using named parameters.

For example, the following callback may be invoked using the Container to resolve the formatter dependency:

$formatString = function($string, \yii\i18n\Formatter $formatter) {
   // ...
}
Yii::$container->invoke($formatString, ['string' => 'Hello World!']);

This will pass the string 'Hello World!' as the first param, and a formatter instance created by the DI container as the second param to the callable.

off() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::off()

Detaches an existing event handler from this component.

This method is the opposite of on().

on() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::on()

Attaches an event handler to an event.

The event handler must be a valid PHP callback. The following are some examples:

function ($event) { ... }         // anonymous function
[$object, 'handleClick']          // $object->handleClick()
['Page', 'handleClick']           // Page::handleClick()
'handleClick'                     // global function handleClick()

The event handler must be defined with the following signature,

function ($event)

where $event is an yii\base\Event object which includes parameters associated with the event.

Since 2.0.14 you can specify event name as a wildcard pattern:

$component->on('event.group.*', function ($event) {
    Yii::trace($event->name . ' is triggered.');
});

See also off().

public void on ( $name, $handler, $data null, $append true )
$name string

$handler callable

The event handler

$data mixed

The data to be passed to the event handler when the event is triggered. When the event handler is invoked, this data can be accessed via yii\base\Event::$data.

                public function on($name, $handler, $data = null, $append = true)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    if (strpos($name, '*') !== false) {

            $this->_eventWildcards[$name][] = [$handler, $data];
        } else {

        }
        return;
    }
    if ($append || empty($this->_events[$name])) {
        $this->_events[$name][] = [$handler, $data];
    } else {
        array_unshift($this->_events[$name], [$handler, $data]);
    }
}

set() public method

Registers a class definition with this container.

For example,

// register a class name as is. This can be skipped.
$container->set('yii\db\Connection');

// register an interface
// When a class depends on the interface, the corresponding class
// will be instantiated as the dependent object
$container->set('yii\mail\MailInterface', 'yii\swiftmailer\Mailer');

// register an alias name. You can use $container->get('foo')
// to create an instance of Connection
$container->set('foo', 'yii\db\Connection');

// register a class with configuration. The configuration
// will be applied when the class is instantiated by get()
$container->set('yii\db\Connection', [
    'dsn' => 'mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=demo',
    'username' => 'root',
    'password' => '',
    'charset' => 'utf8',
]);

// register an alias name with class configuration
// In this case, a "class" element is required to specify the class
$container->set('db', [
    'class' => 'yii\db\Connection',
    'dsn' => 'mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=demo',
    'username' => 'root',
    'password' => '',
    'charset' => 'utf8',
]);

// register a PHP callable
// The callable will be executed when $container->get('db') is called
$container->set('db', function ($container, $params, $config) {
    return new \yii\db\Connection($config);
});

If a class definition with the same name already exists, it will be overwritten with the new one. You may use has() to check if a class definition already exists.

public $this set ( $class, $definition = [], array $params = [] )
$class string

Class name, interface name or alias name

$definition mixed

The definition associated with $class. It can be one of the following:

  • a PHP callable: The callable will be executed when get() is invoked. The signature of the callable should be function ($container, $params, $config), where $params stands for the list of constructor parameters, $config the object configuration, and $container the container object. The return value of the callable will be returned by get() as the object instance requested.
  • a configuration array: the array contains name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the property values of the newly created object when get() is called. The class element stands for the class of the object to be created. If class is not specified, $class will be used as the class name.
  • a string: a class name, an interface name or an alias name.
$params array

The list of constructor parameters. The parameters will be passed to the class constructor when get() is called.

return $this

The container itself

                public function set($class, $definition = [], array $params = [])
{
    $this->_definitions[$class] = $this->normalizeDefinition($class, $definition);
    $this->_params[$class] = $params;
    unset($this->_singletons[$class]);
    return $this;
}

            
setDefinitions() public method (available since version 2.0.11)

Registers class definitions within this container.

See also set() to know more about possible values of definitions.

public void setDefinitions ( array $definitions )
$definitions array

Array of definitions. There are two allowed formats of array. The first format:

  • key: class name, interface name or alias name. The key will be passed to the set() method as a first argument $class.
  • value: the definition associated with $class. Possible values are described in set() documentation for the $definition parameter. Will be passed to the set() method as the second argument $definition.

Example: `php $container->setDefinitions([

'yii\web\Request' => 'app\components\Request',
'yii\web\Response' => [
    'class' => 'app\components\Response',
    'format' => 'json'
],
'foo\Bar' => function () {
    $qux = new Qux;
    $foo = new Foo($qux);
    return new Bar($foo);
}

]); `

The second format:

  • key: class name, interface name or alias name. The key will be passed to the set() method as a first argument $class.
  • value: array of two elements. The first element will be passed the set() method as the second argument $definition, the second one — as $params.

Example: `php $container->setDefinitions([

'foo\Bar' => [
     ['class' => 'app\Bar'],
     [Instance::of('baz')]
 ]

]); `

                public function setDefinitions(array $definitions)
{
    foreach ($definitions as $class => $definition) {
        if (is_array($definition) && count($definition) === 2 && array_values($definition) === $definition && is_array($definition[1])) {
            $this->set($class, $definition[0], $definition[1]);
            continue;
        }
        $this->set($class, $definition);
    }
}

            
setResolveArrays() public method (available since version 2.0.37)

public void setResolveArrays ( $value )
$value boolean

Whether to attempt to resolve elements in array dependencies

                public function setResolveArrays($value)
{
    $this->_resolveArrays = (bool) $value;
}

            
setSingleton() public method

Registers a class definition with this container and marks the class as a singleton class.

This method is similar to set() except that classes registered via this method will only have one instance. Each time get() is called, the same instance of the specified class will be returned.

See also set().

public $this setSingleton ( $class, $definition = [], array $params = [] )
$class string

Class name, interface name or alias name

$definition mixed

The definition associated with $class. See set() for more details.

$params array

The list of constructor parameters. The parameters will be passed to the class constructor when get() is called.

return $this

The container itself

                public function setSingleton($class, $definition = [], array $params = [])
{
    $this->_definitions[$class] = $this->normalizeDefinition($class, $definition);
    $this->_params[$class] = $params;
    $this->_singletons[$class] = null;
    return $this;
}

            
setSingletons() public method (available since version 2.0.11)

Registers class definitions as singletons within this container by calling setSingleton().

See also:

public void setSingletons ( array $singletons )
$singletons array

Array of singleton definitions. See setDefinitions() for allowed formats of array.

                public function setSingletons(array $singletons)
{
    foreach ($singletons as $class => $definition) {
        if (is_array($definition) && count($definition) === 2 && array_values($definition) === $definition) {
            $this->setSingleton($class, $definition[0], $definition[1]);
            continue;
        }
        $this->setSingleton($class, $definition);
    }
}

            
trigger() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::trigger()

Triggers an event.

This method represents the happening of an event. It invokes all attached handlers for the event including class-level handlers.

public void trigger ( $name, yii\base\Event $event null )
$name string

The event name

$event yii\base\Event|null

The event instance. If not set, a default yii\base\Event object will be created.

                public function trigger($name, Event $event = null)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    $eventHandlers = [];
    foreach ($this->_eventWildcards as $wildcard => $handlers) {
        if (StringHelper::matchWildcard($wildcard, $name)) {
            $eventHandlers[] = $handlers;
        }
    }
    if (!empty($this->_events[$name])) {
        $eventHandlers[] = $this->_events[$name];
    }
    if (!empty($eventHandlers)) {
        $eventHandlers = call_user_func_array('array_merge', $eventHandlers);
        if ($event === null) {
            $event = new Event();
        }
        if ($event->sender === null) {
            $event->sender = $this;
        }
        $event->handled = false;
        $event->name = $name;
        foreach ($eventHandlers as $handler) {
            $event->data = $handler[1];
            call_user_func($handler[0], $event);
            // stop further handling if the event is handled
            if ($event->handled) {
                return;
            }
        }
    }
    // invoke class-level attached handlers
    Event::trigger($this, $name, $event);
}
