Thanks

I just want to say thanks, this is very clean and simple. Great work, it's sad to see it's not getting more attention. You might consider adding an example of how to bootstrap the application in the docs.

Specifically I ended up doing something like this for a new project.

var injct = require('injct');

// Register Third Party Modules
injct.static({ lodash: require('lodash') });

// Register Application Modules
injct.register({ configuration: require('./Configuration') });
injct.register({ analyticsEngine: require('./AnalyticsEngine') });

// Launch the Application Entry Point
injct.getInstance('analyticsEngine');

The injct.getInstance() function isn't in the documentation, which might be a little confusing?

Hi @ericrini,

Thank you :)
I will work on that. One thing though, I don't recommend using injct to register other modules, they should be imported on each class.

The main purpose of this library is to be able to create classes like the example below instead of using injct.getInstance(''). That's only a helper for some cases (circular references or functions, not classes).

Before your app starts, run some initializer:

var injct = require('injct');
injct.register({ 
    userRepository: require('./UserRepository'),
    userService: require('./UserService')
});

And then on your UserService for example, you can inject a UserRepository.

var injct = require('injct');
var _ = require('underscore'); //other necessary libs 

function UserService(userRepository) {
    this.userRepository = userRepository;
    injct.apply(this);
}
module.exports = UserService;

Hope that makes it more clear.
Cheers
