Available since version2.0
Source Code https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/di/Instance.php

Instance represents a reference to a named object in a dependency injection (DI) container or a service locator.

You may use get() to obtain the actual object referenced by $id.

Instance is mainly used in two places:

  • When configuring a dependency injection container, you use Instance to reference a class name, interface name or alias name. The reference can later be resolved into the actual object by the container.
  • In classes which use service locator to obtain dependent objects.

The following example shows how to configure a DI container with Instance:

$container = new \yii\di\Container; $container->set('cache', [ 'class' => 'yii\caching\DbCache', 'db' => Instance::of('db') ]); $container->set('db', [ 'class' => 'yii\db\Connection', 'dsn' => 'sqlite:path/to/file.db', ]);

And the following example shows how a class retrieves a component from a service locator:

class DbCache extends Cache { public $db = 'db'; public function init() { parent::init(); $this->db = Instance::ensure($this->db, 'yii\db\Connection'); } }

Method Details

__construct() protected method

Constructor.

protected mixed __construct ( string $id, boolean $optional = false )
$id string

The component ID
$optional boolean

If null should be returned instead of throwing an exception

 

 protected function __construct($id, $optional = false) { $this->id = $id; $this->optional = $optional; }
__set_state() public static method (available since version 2.0.12)

Restores class state after using var_export().

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.var-export.php.

public static yii\di\Instance __set_state ( array $state )
$state array
throws yii\base\InvalidConfigException

when $state property does not contain id parameter

 

 public static function __set_state($state) { if (!isset($state['id'])) { throw new InvalidConfigException('Failed to instantiate class "Instance". Required parameter "id" is missing'); } return new self($state['id']); }
ensure() public static method

Resolves the specified reference into the actual object and makes sure it is of the specified type.

The reference may be specified as a string or an Instance object. If the former, it will be treated as a component ID, a class/interface name or an alias, depending on the container type.

If you do not specify a container, the method will first try Yii::$app followed by Yii::$container.

For example,

use yii\db\Connection; // returns Yii::$app->db $db = Instance::ensure('db', Connection::class); // returns an instance of Connection using the given configuration $db = Instance::ensure(['dsn' => 'sqlite:path/to/my.db'], Connection::class);
public static object ensure ( object|string|array|static $reference, string|null $type = null, yii\di\ServiceLocator|yii\di\Container|null $container = null )
$reference object|string|array|static

An object or a reference to the desired object. You may specify a reference in terms of a component ID or an Instance object. Starting from version 2.0.2, you may also pass in a configuration array for creating the object. If the "class" value is not specified in the configuration array, it will use the value of $type.
$type string|null

The class/interface name to be checked. If null, type check will not be performed.
$container yii\di\ServiceLocator|yii\di\Container|null

The container. This will be passed to get().
return object

The object referenced by the Instance, or $reference itself if it is an object.
throws yii\base\InvalidConfigException

if the reference is invalid

 

 public static function ensure($reference, $type = null, $container = null) { if (is_array($reference)) { if (!$container instanceof Container) { $container = Yii::$container; } if (isset($reference['__class'])) { $class = $reference['__class']; unset($reference['__class'], $reference['class']); } elseif (isset($reference['class'])) { $class = $reference['class']; unset($reference['class']); } else { $class = $type; } $component = $container->get($class, [], $reference); if ($type === null || $component instanceof $type) { return $component; } throw new InvalidConfigException('Invalid data type: ' . $class . '. ' . $type . ' is expected.'); } elseif (empty($reference)) { throw new InvalidConfigException('The required component is not specified.'); } if (is_string($reference)) { $reference = new static($reference); } elseif ($type === null || $reference instanceof $type) { return $reference; } if ($reference instanceof self) { try { $component = $reference->get($container); } catch (\ReflectionException $e) { throw new InvalidConfigException('Failed to instantiate component or class "' . $reference->id . '".', 0, $e); } if ($type === null || $component instanceof $type) { return $component; } throw new InvalidConfigException('"' . $reference->id . '" refers to a ' . get_class($component) . " component. $type is expected."); } $valueType = is_object($reference) ? get_class($reference) : gettype($reference); throw new InvalidConfigException("Invalid data type: $valueType. $type is expected."); }
get() public method

Returns the actual object referenced by this Instance object.

public object|null get ( yii\di\ServiceLocator|yii\di\Container|null $container = null )
$container yii\di\ServiceLocator|yii\di\Container|null

The container used to locate the referenced object. If null, the method will first try Yii::$app then Yii::$container.
return object|null

The actual object referenced by this Instance object.

 

 public function get($container = null) { try { if ($container) { return $container->get($this->id); } if (Yii::$app && Yii::$app->has($this->id)) { return Yii::$app->get($this->id); } return Yii::$container->get($this->id); } catch (\Exception $e) { if ($this->optional) { return null; } throw $e; } catch (\Throwable $e) { if ($this->optional) { return null; } throw $e; } }
of() public static method

Creates a new Instance object.

public static yii\di\Instance of ( string $id, boolean $optional = false )
$id string

The component ID
$optional boolean

If null should be returned instead of throwing an exception
return yii\di\Instance

The new Instance object.

 

 public static function of($id, $optional = false) { return new static($id, $optional); }
