Working with Symfony is made easier when you know a few tricks how to make the system work as you need it to.

1. Symfony Dependency Injection
in Practice
(Denis Malavsky, Grossum)

2. WHAT IS DEPENDENCY INJECTION
WWW.GROSSUM.COM
Dependency injection is a software design pattern in which one or more dependencies (or
services) are injected, or passed by reference, into a dependent object (or client) and are
made part of the client's state.
The pattern separates the creation of a client's dependencies from its own behavior, which
allows program designs to be loosely coupled and to follow the dependency inversion and
single responsibility principles.
It directly contrasts with the service locator pattern, which allows clients to know about
the system they use to find dependencies

8. WORKING WITH CONTAINER SERVICE DEFINITIONS
• Getting and Setting Service Definitions:
• Class
WWW.GROSSUM.COM
$container->hasDefinition($serviceId);
$container->getDefinition($serviceId);
$container->findDefinition($serviceId);
$container->setDefinition($id, $definition);
$definition->getClass();
$definition->setClass($class); // Fully qualified class name as string

9. WORKING WITH CONTAINER SERVICE DEFINITIONS
• Constructor Arguments
• Method Calls
WWW.GROSSUM.COM
$definition->getArguments();
$definition->getArgument($index);
$definition->addArgument($argument);
$definition->replaceArgument($index, $argument);
$definition->setArguments($arguments);
$definition->getMethodCalls();
$definition->addMethodCall($method, $arguments);
$definition->setMethodCalls($methodCalls);
