Dagger Play

Dagger Play is a small set of reusable classes for Dagger injection. There many ways to implement Dagger into your project. Unfortunately memory leaks can occur easily if you implement it without attention.

Dagger Play just do the "step by step" for you and provides a minimum and necessary interface to inject and install Dagger into your project. So forget those tutorials and a lot of poor code snippets and start injecting!

Installation

It's very simple with gradle ;)

Add mavenCentral as repository source:

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

And finnaly add this line inside dependencies { } section:

compile 'com.github.fernandodev.daggerplay:daggerplay:+'

The + symbol indicates to gradle to get the latest version.

• See the sample if there are any doubts.
• DaggerPlay uses compile 'dagger:1.2.+' and 'dagger-compiler:1.2.+'

Using

Like Dagger, you need to create a Module for your Android Project. Generally Module. See the sample below:

@Module(
    injects = {
        MainActivity.class    //THE INJECTABLE CLASSES
    },
    library = true,
    complete = false,
    overrides = false
)
public class SampleModule {

  @Provides UsefulHelper provideUsefulHelper(@WithActivity Context context) {
    return new UsefulHelper(context);
  }
}

Now, you have your main module (you can create how many modules as you want), so you need to register it and finally install Dagger into your application.

Extends android.app.Application and in onCreate just register your module and install Dagger.

public class Samplepplication extends Application {

  @Override
  public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();
    DaggerPlay.registerModules(new SampleModule());
    DaggerPlay.install(this);
  }
}

• Call install after register all your modules.

Now you are ready to use your injections!

There are special methods in DaggerPlay class for Activity, Fragment, Support Fragment and IntentService injections.

public static void injectActivity(Activity activity);

public static void injectFragment(Activity activity, Fragment fragment);

public static void injectSupportFragment(Activity activity, android.support.v4.app.Fragment fragment);

public static void injectService(IntentService service);

So, in onCreate callback, just call DaggerPlay.injectActivity(this); and everything will work like a charm.

Important Details

@WithActivity & @WithApplication

This is a especial annotation to distinguish Context provided by Application or Activity. So, if you want a Context from Activity use this annotation.

Default Injections

With DaggerPlay you get default injections for your application

1. @Inject @WithActivity Context
2. @Inject Resources
3. @Inject Application
4. @Inject Activity
5. @Inject @WithApplication Context
