🧪 Testing with Toor

🚀 Getting Started #
Define your dependencies somewhere in the project.
All global and static variables are lazy by default
so you shouldn't worry about consuming memory that's not used
by registering stuff.
final toor = Toor.instance;

final httpClientSingleton = toor.registerLazySingleton<IHttpClient>(
DioHttpClientImpl.new,
);

final authRepositoryFactory = toor.registerFactory<IAuthRepository>(
() => AuthRepositoryImpl(httpClient: httpClientSingleton()),
);

After that, you can safely access your registered factories or lazy singletons:
void authenticate(String email, String password) {
authRepositoryFactory().authenticate(email, password);
}

✨ Toor in detail #
Types of locators #
Toor currently supports two types of objects: factories and lazy singletons.
Factory
Factories are locators that are created on each time you get them.
Use Toor.registerFactory to create factory locators:
final toor = Toor.instance;

final authRepositoryFactory = toor.registerFactory<IAuthRepository>(
AuthRepositoryImpl.new,
);
copied to clipboard
Lazy Singleton
Lazy singletons are locators that are created only on the first call.
The object, created at the first call, will be returned every time you get
it afterwards.
Use Toor.registerLazySingleton to create lazy singleton locators:
final toor = Toor.instance;

final credentialManager = toor.registerLazySingleton<ICredentialManager>(
CredentialManagerImpl.new,
);
copied to clipboard
Mutable Lazy Singleton
In some cases you may need your singletons to be mutable (e. g. flavors). Toor
has mutable singletons for that. Use Toor.registerMutableLazySingleton in
order to create a lazy singleton with a mutable value. And, in order to change
the value of the singleton, use put:
final toor = Toor.instance;

final appFlavor = toor.registerMutableLazySingleton(
create: () => Flavor.dev,
);
print(appFlavor()); // Flavor.dev

appFlavor.put(Flavor.prod);

print(appFlavor()); // Flavor.prod
copied to clipboard
When calling reset on mutable singletons, the original value (from create)
is assigned to them.
Additional cleanup code with onDispose
Toor allows you to pass an optional onDispose function
when registering lazy singletons in order to do some
clean-up (e.g. close a socket connection, unsubscribe
from a stream etc).
onDispose also gives you access to the current value
of the singleton.
In order to use it, just pass the onDispose argument
when calling registerLazySingleton:
final toor = Toor.instance;

final permissionManager = toor.registerLazySingleton<IPermissionManager>(
PermissionManagerImpl.new,
onDispose: (manager) {
manager.dispose();
},
);
copied to clipboard
Async Factory
Async factories are locators that are asynchronously created each time you get them.
Use Toor.registerFactoryAsync to create async factory locators:
final toor = Toor.instance;

final dataPersisterFactory = toor.registerFactoryAsync<IDataPersister>(
() async => SharedPreferencesDataPersister(
sharedPreferences: await SharedPreferences.getInstance(),
),
);
copied to clipboard
Await the creation of your factory to obtain and use it:
final dataPersister = await dataPersisterFactory();
dataPersister.saveData('big');
copied to clipboard
Factories with parameters
You can also create factories that accept 1 or 2 parameters:
final toor = Toor.instance;

final personFactory = toor.registerFactoryWithParam<Person, String>(
(name) => Person(name),
);

final vehicleFactory = toor.registerFactoryWithTwoParams<Vehicle, String, int>(
(name, productionYear) => Vehicle(name, productionYear);
);

class Person {
const Person(this.name);

final String name;
}

class Vehicle {
const Vehicle(this.name, this.productionYear);

final String name;
final int productionYear;
}

void main() {
// Both are compile-time safe and know about the types.
final driver = personFactory('Doc');
final vehicle = vehicleFactory('DeLorean', 1981);
}
copied to clipboard
Async factories are also supported via registerFactoryAsyncWithParam
and registerFactoryAsyncWithTwoParams.
Advanced usage #
Resetting lazy singletons
You can reset lazy singletons via the reset method. This will delete the
current object and create a new one on the next call.
final toor = Toor.instance;

String value = 'Initial';

final lazySingleton = toor.registerLazySingleton<String>(
() => value,
);

// Even though we change the `value` variable here,
// `lazySingleton`s value will remain 'Initial'.
value = 'Changed';

print(lazySingleton()); // 'Initial'

// Once we reset `lazySingleton`, it's value will be 'Changed' on the next call.
lazySingleton.reset();

print(lazySingleton()); // 'Changed'
copied to clipboard
Resetting all lazy singletons
Toor lets you reset all lazy singletons at once via the reset method on its
instance. This will call reset on every lazy singleton, registered with it.
final toor = Toor.instance;

String value = 'Initial';

final lazySingleton = toor.registerLazySingleton<String>(
() => value,
);

value = 'Changed';

print(lazySingleton()); // 'Initial'

// Once we reset `toor`, all lazy singletons, registered via
// `toor.registerLazySingleton` will be reset.
toor.reset();

print(lazySingleton()); // 'Changed'
copied to clipboard
Creating new instances of Toor
You may want to create several instances of Toor, independent of each other.
The Toor.instance getter will return the default instance but you don't
have to use it. You can create new instances of Toor via Toor.newInstance().
You may want to do this in order to reset lazy singletons, related to a
single domain (e.g. reset all singletons that hold user data on logout).
final authToor = Toor.newInstance();
final analyticsToor = Toor.newInstance();

final credentialManager = authToor.registerLazySingleton<ICredentialManager>(
CredentialManagerImpl.new,
);

final sessionRecorder = authToor.registerLazySingleton<ISessionRecorder>(
SessionRecorderImpl(upload: false),
);

void logout() {
// `credentialManager` will be reset, however `sessionRecorder` won't, since
// it's registered in `analyticsToor`, not `authToor`.
authToor.reset();
}
copied to clipboard
Registering locators with top-level functions
Toor provides several ways to register a locator in the
global toor instance:
// You can use `Toor.instance` getter and then call
// `registerLazySingleton` or any other method on it.
final toor = Toor.instance;

final httpClientSingleton = toor.registerLazySingleton<IHttpClient>(
DioHttpClientImpl.new,
);

// Or you can use a top-level function with the same name
// which basically will call the method on `Toor.instance`.
final httpClientSingleton = registerLazySingleton<IHttpClient>(
DioHttpClientImpl.new,
);

🧪 Testing with Toor #
Sometimes, you need different (e.g. mock) objects to be created in tests.
There are two ways to achieve that with Toor:

Deciding what to register based on some variables / other toor singletons
(e. g. flavor):

final toor = Toor.instance;

final authManager = toor.registerLazySingleton<IAuthManager>(
flavor.isTesting ? MockAuthManager() : AuthManagerImpl(),
);
copied to clipboard

Overriding registered objects via override which is
available in toor_test. The override method is annotated with
visibleForTesting since it's intended to be used only in tests:

// dependencies.dart
import 'package:toor/toor.dart';

final toor = Toor.instance;

final authManager = toor.registerLazySingleton<IAuthManager>(
AuthManagerImpl.new,
);
copied to clipboard
// app_test.dart
import 'package:toor/toor_test.dart';

void main() {
setUpAll(() {
authManager.override(() => MockAuthManager());
});
}
