StackedLocator class

A thin wrapper around get_it to reduce the number of direct dependencies the user has to depend on.

Constructors

StackedLocator.asNewInstance()

factory

Properties

allowReassignment ↔ bool

If you need more than one instance of GetIt you can use asNewInstance() You should prefer to use the instance() method to access the global instance of GetIt. By default it's not allowed to register a type a second time. If you really need to you can disable the asserts by settingallowReassignment= true

getter/setter pair

hashCode → int

The hash code for this object.

no setter, inherited

locator ↔ GetIt

getter/setter pair

runtimeType → Type

A representation of the runtime type of the object.

no setter, inherited

Methods

allReady({Duration? timeout, bool ignorePendingAsyncCreation = false}) → Future<void>

returns a Future that completes if all asynchronously created Singletons and any Singleton that had signalsReady==true are ready. This can be used inside a FutureBuilder to change the UI as soon as all initialization is done If you pass a timeout, an WaitingTimeOutException will be thrown if not all Singletons were ready in the given time. The Exception contains details on which Singletons are not ready yet. if allReady should not wait for the completion of async Signletons set ignorePendingAsyncCreation==true

allReadySync([bool ignorePendingAsyncCreation = false]) → bool

Returns if all async Singletons are ready without waiting if allReady should not wait for the completion of async Signletons set ignorePendingAsyncCreation==true

call<T extends Object>({String? instanceName, dynamic param1, dynamic param2}) → T

Callable class so that you can write GetIt.instance<MyType> instead of GetIt.instance.get<MyType>

get<T extends Object>({String? instanceName, dynamic param1, dynamic param2}) → T

retrieves or creates an instance of a registered type T depending on the registration function used for this type or based on a name. for factories you can pass up to 2 parameters param1,param2 they have to match the types given at registration with registerFactoryParam()

getAsync<T extends Object>({String? instanceName, dynamic param1, dynamic param2}) → Future<T>

Returns an Future of an instance that is created by an async factory or a Singleton that is not ready with its initialization. for async factories you can pass up to 2 parameters param1,param2 they have to match the types given at registration with registerFactoryParamAsync()

isReady<T extends Object>({Object? instance, String? instanceName, Duration? timeout, Object? callee}) → Future<void>

Returns a Future that completes if the instance of an Singleton, defined by Type T or by name instanceName or by passing the an existing instance, is ready If you pass a timeout, an WaitingTimeOutException will be thrown if the instance is not ready in the given time. The Exception contains details on which Singletons are not ready at that time. callee optional parameter which makes debugging easier. Pass this in here.

isReadySync<T extends Object>({Object? instance, String? instanceName}) → bool

Checks if an async Singleton defined by an instance, a type T or an instanceName is ready without waiting

isRegistered<T extends Object>({Object? instance, String? instanceName}) → bool

Tests if an instance of an object or aType T or a name instanceName is registered inside GetIt

noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic

Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.

inherited

popScope() → Future<void>

Disposes all factories/Singletons that have ben registered in this scope and pops (destroys) the scope so that the previous scope gets active again. if you provided dispose functions on registration, they will be called. if you passed a dispose function when you pushed this scope it will be calles before the scope is popped. As dispose funcions can be async, you should await this function.

popScopesTill(String name) → Future<bool>

if you have a lot of scopes with names you can pop (see popScope) all scopes above the scope with name including that scope Scopes are poped in order from the top As dispose funcions can be async, you should await this function. it no scope with name exists, nothing is popped and false is returned

pushNewScope({String? scopeName, ScopeDisposeFunc? dispose}) → void

Creates a new registration scope. If you register types after creating a new scope they will hide any previous registration of the same type. Scopes allow you to manage different live times of your Objects. scopeName if you name a scope you can pop all scopes above the named one by using the name. dispose function that will be called when you pop this scope. The scope is still valied while it is executed

registerEnvironment({String? environment, EnvironmentFilter? environmentFilter}) → void

registerFactory<T extends Object>(FactoryFunc<T> factoryfunc, {String? instanceName, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type so that a new instance will be created on each call of get on that type T type to register factoryfunc factory function for this type instanceName if you provide a value here your factory gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended

registerFactoryAsync<T extends Object>(FactoryFuncAsync<T> factoryfunc, {String? instanceName, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

Registers a type so that a new instance will be created on each call of getAsync on that type the creation function is executed asynchronously and has to be accessed with getAsync T type to register factoryfunc async factory function for this type instanceName if you provide a value here your factory gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended

registerFactoryParam<T extends Object, P1, P2>(FactoryFuncParam<T, P1?, P2?> factoryfunc, {String? instanceName, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type so that a new instance will be created on each call of get on that type based on up to two parameters provided to get() T type to register P1 type of param1 P2 type of param2 if you use only one parameter pass void here factoryfunc factory function for this type that accepts two parameters instanceName if you provide a value here your factory gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended

registerFactoryParamAsync<T extends Object, P1, P2>(FactoryFuncParamAsync<T, P1?, P2?> factoryfunc, {String? instanceName, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type so that a new instance will be created on each call of getAsync on that type based on up to two parameters provided to getAsync() the creation function is executed asynchronously and has to be accessed with getAsync T type to register P1 type of param1 P2 type of param2 if you use only one parameter pass void here factoryfunc factory function for this type that accepts two parameters instanceName if you provide a value here your factory gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended

registerLazySingleton<T extends Object>(FactoryFunc<T> factoryfunc, {String? instanceName, DisposingFunc<T>? dispose, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type as Singleton by passing a factory function that will be called on the first call of get on that type T type to register factoryfunc factory function for this type instanceName if you provide a value here your factory gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended registerLazySingleton does not influence allReady however you can wait for and be dependent on a LazySingleton.

registerLazySingletonAsync<T extends Object>(FactoryFuncAsync<T> factoryFunc, {String? instanceName, DisposingFunc<T>? dispose, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type as Singleton by passing a async factory function that will be called on the first call of getAsnc on that type This is a rather esoteric requirement so you should seldom have the need to use it. This factory function factoryFunc isn't called immediately but wait till the first call by getAsync() or isReady() is made To control if an async Singleton has completed its factoryFunc gets a Completer passed as parameter that has to be completed to signal that this instance is ready. Therefore you have to ensure that the instance is ready before you use get on it or use getAsync() to wait for the completion. You can wait/check if the instance is ready by using isReady() and isReadySync(). instanceName if you provide a value here your instance gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended. registerLazySingletonAsync does not influence allReady however you can wait for and be dependent on a LazySingleton.

registerSingleton<T extends Object>(T instance, {String? instanceName, bool? signalsReady, DisposingFunc<T>? dispose, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type as Singleton by passing an instance of that type that will be returned on each call of get on that type T type to register instanceName if you provide a value here your instance gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended If signalsReady is set to true it means that the future you can get from allReady() cannot complete until this this instance was signalled ready by calling signalsReady(instance).

registerSingletonAsync<T extends Object>(FactoryFuncAsync<T> factoryfunc, {String? instanceName, Iterable<Type>? dependsOn, bool? signalsReady, DisposingFunc<T>? dispose, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type as Singleton by passing an asynchronous factory function which has to return the instance that will be returned on each call of get on that type. Therefore you have to ensure that the instance is ready before you use get on it or use getAsync() to wait for the completion. You can wait/check if the instance is ready by using isReady() and isReadySync(). factoryfunc is executed immediately if there are no dependencies to other Singletons (see below). As soon as it returns, this instance is marked as ready unless you don't set signalsReady==true instanceName if you provide a value here your instance gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended dependsOn if this instance depends on other registered Singletons before it can be initilaized you can either orchestrate this manually using isReady() or pass a list of the types that the instance depends on here. factoryFunc won't get executed till this types are ready. If signalsReady is set to true it means that the future you can get from allReady() cannot complete until this this instance was signalled ready by calling signalsReady(instance). In that case no automatic ready signal is made after completion of factoryfunc

registerSingletonWithDependencies<T extends Object>(FactoryFunc<T> factoryFunc, {String? instanceName, Iterable<Type>? dependsOn, bool? signalsReady, DisposingFunc<T>? dispose, Set<String>? registerFor}) → void

registers a type as Singleton by passing an factory function of that type that will be called on each call of get on that type T type to register instanceName if you provide a value here your instance gets registered with that name instead of a type. This should only be necessary if you need to register more than one instance of one type. Its highly not recommended dependsOn if this instance depends on other registered Singletons before it can be initilaized you can either orchestrate this manually using isReady() or pass a list of the types that the instance depends on here. factoryFunc won't get executed till this types are ready. func is called If signalsReady is set to true it means that the future you can get from allReady() cannot complete until this this instance was signalled ready by calling signalsReady(instance).

removeRegistrationIfExists<T extends Object>({String? instanceName}) → void

reset({bool dispose = true}) → Future<void>

Clears all registered types. Handy when writing unit tests If you provided dispose function when registering they will be called dispose if false it only resets without calling any dispose functions As dispose funcions can be async, you should await this function.

resetLazySingleton<T extends Object>({T? instance, String? instanceName, void disposingFunction(T)?}) → void

Clears the instance of a lazy singleton, being able to call the factory function on the next call of get on that type again. you select the lazy Singleton you want to reset by either providing an instance, its registered type T or its registration name. if you need to dispose some resources before the reset, you can provide a disposingFunction. This function overrides the disposing you might have provided when registering.

resetScope({bool dispose = true}) → Future<void>

Clears all registered types for the current scope If you provided dispose function when registering they will be called dispose if false it only resets without calling any dispose functions As dispose funcions can be async, you should await this function.

signalReady(Object instance) → void

Used to manually signal the ready state of a Singleton. If you want to use this mechanism you have to pass signalsReady==true when registering the Singleton. If instance has a value GetIt will search for the responsible Singleton and completes all futures that might be waited for by isReady If all waiting singletons have signalled ready the future you can get from allReady is automatically completed

toString() → String

A string representation of this object.

inherited

unregister<T extends Object>({Object? instance, String? instanceName, void disposingFunction(T)?}) → void

Unregister an instance of an object or a factory/singleton by Type T or by name instanceName if you need to dispose any resources you can do it using disposingFunction function that provides a instance of your class to be disposed. This function overrides the disposing you might have provided when registering.
