Detailed Description

Provides a concise way to declare and encapsulate the architecture of an application in one or more classes that describe how components collaborate together.

Prior to activation the assembly interface returns TyphoonDefinitions. After activation assembly interface poses in of a TyphoonComponentFactory to return built instances.

Example:

MyAssembly* assembly = [[MyAssembly new] activate];
AnalyticsService* service = [assembly analyticsService];

The TyphoonAssembly provides:

• a way to easily define multiple components of the same class or protocol
• Avoids the use of "magic strings" for component resolution and wiring
• Allows the use of IDE features like refactoring and code completion.

Method Documentation

- (instancetype) activate

Activates the assembly.

The concrete declared type of any collaborating assemblies will be used. If collaborating assemblies are backed by a protocol then they must be specified explicitly.

activateWithCollaboratingAssemblies

- (instancetype) activateWithCollaboratingAssemblies:

(NSArray *)

assemblies

Activates the assembly, explicitly setting the types for collaborating assemblies.

Parameters

assemblies

The explicit types to be used for collaborating assemblies. For example if this assembly references another assembly of type NetworkProvider, specifying a subclass TestNetworkProvider will override the base type. If collaborating assemblies are backed by a protocol, they must be specified explicitly.

+ (instancetype) assembly

+ (instancetype) defaultAssembly

Returns the [TyphoonComponentFactory defaultFactory] posing as a TyphoonAssembly.
