inject_generator 1.1.0-pre2

Dev-time dependency for package:inject_annotation.

example/lib/main.dart

// The pub.dev showcase for `inject.dart` + `inject_flutter`.
//
// The example walks through every concept a Flutter developer typically
// needs:
//
// 1. Defining the dependency graph with `@Component`.
// 2. Registering external bindings via an `@module`.
// 3. Hooking into provisioning with `@provisionListener` (see issue #36).
// 4. Building widgets with assisted injection (`@assistedInject`).
// 5. Bridging Flutter's widget lifecycle with `ViewModelFactory`.

/// A `@module` is a class whose `@provides` methods contribute bindings to

/// that observes the graph at runtime.

  /// The combination of annotations is what makes this binding special:
  ///
  /// - `@provides` exposes the return value to the dependency graph.
  /// - `@singleton` guarantees a single shared instance — required for any
  ///   listener that wants to observe *every* provisioning.
  /// - `@provisionListener` tells the generator to invoke `onProvision`
  ///   after each dependency of the listener's generic type is created.
  ///   Here the type argument is [ChangeNotifier], so the listener fires
  ///   for [HomePageViewModel] (which extends [ChangeNotifier]) but not
  ///   for [ExampleApp] or [HomePage].

/// This is the pattern requested in
/// [issue #36](https://github.com/ralph-bergmann/inject.dart/issues/36) —
/// modelled after Guice's `ProvisionListener` API. The listener is a pure
/// observer: it does not hold references to the provisioned instances, so
/// it does not interfere with anyone else managing their lifecycle (for
/// example [ViewModelFactory], which already disposes view models when
/// their widget leaves the tree).
///
/// Typical real-world uses:
///
/// - centralised logging or metrics on dependency creation;
/// - tracking `Closeable`-like resources (DB pools, sockets) so a test
///   teardown can release them in one call;
/// - lifecycle hooks for non-Flutter objects that no framework manages
///   automatically.
