Raise exception when injecting into modules #62
Conversation
To me it happened that I accidentally injected my dependencies into a
namespace module instead of into a class, like this:
module Operations
module Articles
include Import["repositories.articles"]
class Create
# ...
end
end
end
When I did that, I got a NoMethodError for NilClass somewhere down the
line. This led me to believe that I've somehow incorrectly passed
parameters to `Import[]`, and it took me a while to realize what was the
error.
The error occurred because the downstream code assumes the #initialize
method will be defined, which is not the case for modules. To improve
the developer experience, we detect that we're attempting to inject into
a module and raise an explicit exception.

I won't go into details right now, but I want to note that this is strategy-dependent. For example, effect-based DI works with modules or whatever. And I believe we can make built-in strategies to work with modules too. However, this would require some hacking. |

Hmm, you're right, I haven't considered that. I've also often seen people using modules instead of classes for stateless operations, in which case they might want to use auto-inject. I'll keep this open in case you still want to merge it until support for modules is added. |
