DI in Angular
Another way we can approach this is by taking advantage of the DI pattern. We're already familiar with it from AngularJS;Â let's demonstrate how we can refactor the preceding code using DI in the context of Angular:
class Engine {...} class Transmission {...} @Injectable() class Car { engine; transmission; constructor(engine: Engine, transmission: Transmission) { this.engine = engine; this.transmission = transmission; } }
All we did in the preceding snippet was add the @Injectable
class decorator on top of the definition of the Car
class and provide type annotations for the parameters of its constructor.
Benefits of DI
There is one more step left, which we'll take a look at in the next section. Before that, let's take a look at what the benefits of the mentioned approach are:
We can easily pass different versions of the dependencies of the
Car
class for a testing environment, or for instantiating...
