Toothpick (a.k.a T.P. like a teepee)

Visit TP wiki !

What is Toothpick ?

Toothpick is a scope tree based Dependency Injection (DI) library for Java.

It is a full-featured, runtime based, but reflection free, implementation of JSR 330.

What does Toothpick offer ?

//a typical Toothpick scope tree during the execution of an Android app.

           @ApplicationScope 
             /          |    \  
            /           |     \
           /            |      \
   @ViewModelScope      |   Service 2
         /              | 
        /            Service 1  
       /            
 @Activity1Scope
      /
     /
Activity 1
   /   \
  /   Fragment 2
 /
Fragment 1

Scopes offer to compartmentalize memory during the runtime of an app and prevent memory leaks. All dependencies created via Toothpick, and available for injections, will be fully garbage collected when this scope is closed. To learn more about scopes, read TP wiki.

Toothpick is :

• pure java (Android support is provided: "Smoothie", Kotlin support is provided by "KTP")
• fast, it doesn't use reflection but annotation processing
• TP supports incremental annotation processing (isolating).
• simple, flexible, extensible & powerful, robust & tested
• thread safe
• documented & Open Source
• scope safe : it enforces leak free apps
• test oriented : it makes tests easier
• is a candidate of choice for Android or any other context based framework (such as web containers)

Setup

The latest version of TP is provided by a badge at the top of this page.

For Android :

#android setup using gradle 5.5.1
buildscript {
  repositories {
    google()
    jcenter()
  }
  dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.x'
  }
}

...
#for java
dependencies {
  implementation 'com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick:toothpick-runtime:3.x'
  // and for android -> implementation 'com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick:smoothie-androidx:3.x'
  annotationProcessor 'com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick:toothpick-compiler:3.x'

  //highly recommended
  testImplementation 'com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick:toothpick-testing-junit5:3.x'
  testImplementation 'mockito or easymock'
}

#for kotlin
dependencies {
  implementation 'com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick:ktp:3.x'
  kapt 'com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick:toothpick-compiler:3.x'

  //highly recommended
  testImplementation 'com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick:toothpick-testing-junit5:3.x'
  testImplementation 'mockito or easymock'
}

For java:

<!--java setup with maven -->
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick</groupId>
      <artifactId>toothpick-compiler</artifactId>
      <version>3.x</version>
      <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick</groupId>
      <artifactId>toothpick-runtime</artifactId>
      <version>3.x</version>
      <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    
    <!-- highly recommended-->
    <dependency> 
      <groupId>com.github.stephanenicolas.toothpick</groupId>
      <artifactId>toothpick-testing</artifactId>
      <version>3.x</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
    <easymock or mockito>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
