Service/State Locator Service

What is a service locator

Simply put, it locates services. And if it can't do that it builds them.

You provide factories in the form of AppDecorations.

You can then use locate<T>({instance_id=""}) like magic to get the instance anywhere. locateAndBuild<YourChangeNotifier>((ctx, value)=>Text(value.someData))

When to use it?

When tree heirarchy of your services don't matter (i.e. they are "globals").

However you can store multiple instances if you key them or form a library.

Usage

Provide factories to construct your objects.

provide

In your appDecorations LocatorDecoration<SomeService>(()=>SomeServiceImpl()) if you want to use an interface.

or just simply LocatorDecoration(()=>SomeService()) if type inferrence will do

find

locate<SomeService>() and locateAndBuild<T extends ChangeNotifier>((ctx, t) => yourWidget)

They will be lazily loaded and initialized as requested.
