Automatic injection of laravel

In laravel, when we specify a parameter by type in the controller's constructor or instance method, the system can automatically inject an instance of the parameter for you.

So how is it implemented internally?

List a few technical points first

1. Class ReflectionClass

   This class is used to reflect the specified class and extract class information.

2.ReflectionClass.getConstructor

   Get the constructor of the specified class and return ReflectionMethod

3.ReflectionMethod.getParameters

   Get method parameter information

4.ReflectionClass.newInstanceArgs

  Create class instance

 

When laravel finds the class name of the controller through routing, it will create an instance first. If the constructor contains parameters of the specified type, and it is not passed in the router settings,

An instance of this parameter will be created. Of course, if the constructor of this parameter also contains parameters of the specified type, it will still be created, recursively until no parameters are specified.

The entry code is in the method make of the class Illuminate\Container\Containerd

    public function make($abstract, array $parameters = [])
    {
        $abstract = $this->getAlias($this->normalize($abstract));

        // If an instance of the type is currently being managed as a singleton we'll
        // just return an existing instance instead of instantiating new instances
        // so the developer can keep using the same objects instance every time.
        if (isset($this->instances[$abstract])) {
            return $this->instances[$abstract];
        }

        $concrete = $this->getConcrete($abstract);

        // We're ready to instantiate an instance of the concrete type registered for
        // the binding. This will instantiate the types, as well as resolve any of
        // its "nested" dependencies recursively until all have gotten resolved.
        if ($this->isBuildable($concrete, $abstract)) {
            $object = $this->build($concrete, $parameters);
        } else {
            $object = $this->make($concrete, $parameters);
        }

        // If we defined any extenders for this type, we'll need to spin through them
        // and apply them to the object being built. This allows for the extension
        // of services, such as changing configuration or decorating the object.
        foreach ($this->getExtenders($abstract) as $extender) {
            $object = $extender($object, $this);
        }

        // If the requested type is registered as a singleton we'll want to cache off
        // the instances in "memory" so we can return it later without creating an
        // entirely new instance of an object on each subsequent request for it.
        if ($this->isShared($abstract)) {
            $this->instances[$abstract] = $object;
        }

        $this->fireResolvingCallbacks($abstract, $object);

        $this->resolved[$abstract] = true;

        return $object;
    }

 

The core code of this place is in the method build of the class Illuminate\Container\Containerd

public function build($concrete, array $parameters = [])
    {
        // If the concrete type is actually a Closure, we will just execute it and
        // hand back the results of the functions, which allows functions to be
        // used as resolvers for more fine-tuned resolution of these objects.
        if ($concrete instanceof Closure) {
            return $concrete($this, $parameters);
        }

        $reflector = new ReflectionClass($concrete);

        // If the type is not instantiable, the developer is attempting to resolve
        // an abstract type such as an Interface of Abstract Class and there is
        // no binding registered for the abstractions so we need to bail out.
        if (! $reflector->isInstantiable()) {
            if (! empty($this->buildStack)) {
                $previous = implode(', ', $this->buildStack);

                $message = "Target [$concrete] is not instantiable while building [$previous].";
            } else {
                $message = "Target [$concrete] is not instantiable.";
            }

            throw new BindingResolutionException($message);
        }

        $this->buildStack[] = $concrete;

        $constructor = $reflector->getConstructor();

        // If there are no constructors, that means there are no dependencies then
        // we can just resolve the instances of the objects right away, without
        // resolving any other types or dependencies out of these containers.
        if (is_null($constructor)) {
            array_pop($this->buildStack);

            return new $concrete;
        }

        $dependencies = $constructor->getParameters();

        // Once we have all the constructor's parameters we can create each of the
        // dependency instances and then use the reflection instances to make a
        // new instance of this class, injecting the created dependencies in.
        $parameters = $this->keyParametersByArgument(
            $dependencies, $parameters
        );

        $instances = $this->getDependencies(
            $dependencies, $parameters
        );

        array_pop($this->buildStack);

        return $reflector->newInstanceArgs($instances);
    }
