Symfony3 Container Dependency Injection

It’s 2016, you can use trait which will help you extend same class with multiple libraries.

I keep seeing container class get extended into another class, which then extends to another, before you know it you have extended 5 different classes just to use libraries.

What if you can include 5 different libraries into 1 object without extending? Well you can use it with php5.4 trait feature.

Container dependency injection trait class

        public function setContainer (ContainerInterface $container)
        {
            $this->container = $container;
        }
    
        /**

Your custom object, which will be service.

    namespace AppBundle\Utils;
    
    use iBasit\ToolsBundle\Utils\Lib\Container;
    
    class myObject
    {
        use Container;
    }

Your object service settings

     myObject: 
            class: AppBundle\Utils\myObject
            calls:
                - [setContainer, ["@service_container"]]

Call your service in controller

    $myObject = $this->get('myObject');
