I finally figured it out.
For an app structure
FeatureCamera FeaturePhotos (Dynamic Feature Modules)
| | |
| ----App
| |
core(android-library)
Camera dynamic feature module dependencies from core module, Photo dynamic feature module dependencies from app.
First create a CoreModule in library module
@InstallIn(ApplicationComponent::class)
@Module
class CoreModule {
@Singleton
@Provides
fun provideCoreDependency(application: Application) = CoreDependency(application)
@Provides
fun provideCoreActivityDependency(context: Application) = CoreActivityDependency(context)
@Provides
fun provideCoreCameraDependency(): CoreCameraDependency = CoreCameraDependency()
@Provides
fun provideCorePhotoDependency(): CorePhotoDependency = CorePhotoDependency()
}
An interface with @EntryPoint is required to with provision methods defined in this interface, if you don't define a method for that dependency you cannot inject it even though there is a @Provides method for it. These are mock dependencies that take application or context as only parameter.
@EntryPoint
@InstallIn(ApplicationComponent::class)
interface CoreComponent {
/*
Provision methods to provide dependencies to components that depend on this component
*/
fun coreDependency(): CoreDependency
fun coreActivityDependency(): CoreActivityDependency
fun coreCameraDependency(): CoreCameraDependency
fun corePhotoDependency(): CorePhotoDependency
}
In camera dynamic feature module, create another module for the dependency based inside of this dynamic feature module.
@InstallIn(FragmentComponent::class)
@Module(includes = [CameraBindModule::class])
class CameraModule {
@Provides
fun provideCameraObject(context: Context) = CameraObject(context)
}
@InstallIn(FragmentComponent::class)
@Module
abstract class CameraBindModule {
@Binds
abstract fun bindContext(application: Application): Context
}
And component to inject dependencies to Fragments or Activities in this DFM.
@Component(
dependencies = [CoreComponent::class],
modules = [CameraModule::class]
)
interface CameraComponent {
fun inject(cameraFragment1: CameraFragment1)
fun inject(cameraFragment2: CameraFragment2)
fun inject(cameraActivity: CameraActivity)
@Component.Factory
interface Factory {
fun create(coreComponent: CoreComponent, @BindsInstance application: Application): CameraComponent
}
}
If injected to Activity call in onCreate()
DaggerCameraComponent.factory().create(
EntryPointAccessors.fromApplication(
applicationContext,
CoreComponent::class.java
),
application
)
.inject(this)
For injecting to Fragment call in onCreate()
DaggerCameraComponent.factory().create(
EntryPointAccessors.fromApplication(
requireActivity().applicationContext,
CoreComponent::class.java
),
requireActivity().application
)
.inject(this)
The trick is here to get dependency interface annotated with @EntryPoint
using EntryPointAccessors.fromApplication()
Also created Activity based dependencies in app module
MainActivityModule.kt
@InstallIn(ActivityComponent::class)
@Module(includes = [MainActivityBindModule::class])
class MainActivityModule {
@Provides
fun provideToastMaker(application: Application) = ToastMaker(application)
@ActivityScoped
@Provides
fun provideMainActivityObject(context: Context) = MainActivityObject(context)
}
@InstallIn(ActivityComponent::class)
@Module
abstract class MainActivityBindModule {
@Binds
abstract fun bindContext(application: Application): Context
}
And only intend to inject these dependencies to Photos dynamic feature module so named it as PhotoDependencies
@EntryPoint
@InstallIn(ActivityComponent::class)
interface PhotoModuleDependencies {
fun toastMaker(): ToastMaker
fun mainActivityObject(): MainActivityObject
}
In Photos dynamic feature module create dagger module named PhotoModule
@InstallIn(FragmentComponent::class)
@Module(includes = [PhotoBindModule::class])
class PhotoModule {
@Provides
fun providePhotoObject(application: Application): PhotoObject = PhotoObject(application)
}
@InstallIn(FragmentComponent::class)
@Module
abstract class PhotoBindModule {
@Binds
abstract fun bindContext(application: Application): Context
}
And component
@Component(
dependencies = [PhotoModuleDependencies::class],
modules = [PhotoModule::class]
)
interface PhotoComponent {
fun inject(photosFragment1: PhotoFragment1)
fun inject(photosFragment2: PhotoFragment2)
@Component.Factory
interface Factory {
fun create(photoModuleDependencies: PhotoModuleDependencies,
@BindsInstance application: Application): PhotoComponent
}
}
And inject to fragments with
DaggerPhotoComponent.factory().create(
EntryPointAccessors.fromActivity(
requireActivity(),
PhotoModuleDependencies::class.java
),
requireActivity().application
)
.inject(this)
The trick here is to get EntryPointAccessors.fromActivity instead of fromApplication.
