How do we manage dependency injection in class libraries? Given the following class structure, we would like to inject an instance of Bar into Foo, and we would rather not make this the client's responsibility.
namespace MyLibrary {
export class Foo {
private readonly bar: Internal.Bar;
constructor(bar: Internal.Bar) {
this.bar = bar;
}
}
}
namespace Internal {
export class Bar { }
}
If there were a framework that managed dependency injection, then we would rely on that framework to provide an instance of Bar. If there were a main method, then we would new up all the dependencies there. In the case of a class library, though, where do we instantiate Bar?
In other words, where do we put the composition root of a class library?
Foo, if clients of your library don't understandBar. If you want to injectBarintoFoothen you can provide a factory method for clients to use that instantiates both.
