The _consumer_ of `Car` has the problem. The consumer must update the car creation code to

something like this:

We aren't even pretending this is a real service.
|

If we were actually getting data from a remote server, the API would have to be asynchronous,
|
|
|
|
returning a `Future`.
|
|

|
We'd also have to rewrite the way components consume our service.

The constructor parameter has a type: `HeroService`.
|
|
|
|
The `HeroListComponent` class is also annotated with `@Component`
|
|
|
|
(scroll up to confirm that fact).
|
|
|
|
Also recall that the parent component (`HeroesComponent`)
|
|
|
|
has `providers` information for `HeroService`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The constructor parameter type, the `@Component` annotation,
|
|
|
|
and the parent's `providers` information combine to tell the
|
|
|
|
Angular injector to inject an instance of
|
|
|
|
`HeroService` whenever it creates a new `HeroListComponent`.

### Implementing a logger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our examples use a simple logger.
|
|
|
|
A real implementation would probably use the
|
|
|
|
[logging package](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/logging).
|
|
|
|
:marked
|
|
|
|
We're likely to need the same logger service everywhere in our application,
|
|
|
|
so we put it in the `lib/` folder, and
|
|
|
|
we register it in the `providers` array of the metadata for our application root component, `AppComponent`.

header Dart difference: Constants in metadata
|
|
|
|
:marked
|
|
|
|
In Dart, the value of a metadata annotation must be a compile-time constant.
|
|
|
|
For that reason, we can't call functions to get values
|
|
|
|
to use within an annotation.
|
|
|
|
Instead, we use constant literals or constant constructors.
|
|
|
|
For example, a TypeScript program might use the
|
|
|
|
function call `provide(Logger, {useClass: BetterLogger})`,
|
|
|
|
which is equivalent to the TypeScript code
|
|
|
|
`new Provider(Logger, {useClass: BetterLogger})`.
|
|
|
|
A Dart annotation would instead use the constant value `const Provider(Logger, useClass: BetterLogger)`.

We can provide objects directly,
|
|
|
|
instead of asking the injector to create an instance of a class,
|
|
|
|
by specifying a `useValue` parameter to `Provider`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because Dart annotations must be compile-time constants,
|
|
|
|
`useValue` is often used with string or list literals.
|
|
|
|
However, `useValue` works with any constant object.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To create a class that can provide constant objects,
|
|
|
|
make sure all its instance variables are `final`,
|
|
|
|
and give it a `const` constructor:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+makeExample('dependency-injection/dart/lib/app_config.dart','const-class','lib/app_config.dart (excerpt)')(format='.')
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
:marked
|
|
|
|
Create a constant instance of the class by using `const` instead of `new`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
+makeExample('dependency-injection/dart/lib/app_config.dart','const-object','lib/app_config.dart (excerpt)')(format='.')
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
:marked
|
|
|
|
Then specify the object using the `useValue` argument to `Provider`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- var stylePattern = { otl: /(useValue.*\))/gm };
|
|
