DS.Unity.Extensions.DependencyInjection

An unofficial Unity 4.0.1 implementation of the interfaces in Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions

For Unity 5+ please use official implementation

Get Started

• Reference the DS.Unity.Extensions.DependencyInjection package from NuGet.

First way:

• In the WebHostBuilder add ConfigureServices(services => services.AddUnity()) method

public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>
    WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
        .ConfigureServices(services => services.AddUnity())
        .UseStartup<Startup>()
        .Build();

• Add method to your Startup class

public void ConfigureContainer(IUnityContainer container)
{
  container.RegisterType<IMyService, MyService>();
}

Second way:

• In the ConfigureServices method of your Startup class...
  • Register services from the IServiceCollection.
  • Build your container.
  • Create an UnityServiceProvider using the container and return it.

public IServiceProvider ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
  services.AddMvc();
  
  var container = new UnityContainer();
  container.Populate(services);
  
  container.RegisterType<IMyService, MyService>();
  
  return new UnityServiceProvider(container);
}
