A fast dependency injector for Android and Java.
Dagger 2 is a compile-time evolution approach to dependency injection.
Taking the approach started in Dagger 1.x to its ultimate conclusion,
Dagger 2.x eliminates all reflection, and improves code clarity by
removing the traditional ObjectGraph/Injector in favor of user-specified
@Component
interfaces.
This github project represents the Dagger 2 development stream. The earlier project page (Square, Inc's repository) represents the earlier 1.0 development stream. Both versions have benefitted from strong involvement from Square, Google, and other contributors.
- Release Version: 2.2
- Snapshot Version: 2.3-SNAPSHOT
Dagger is currently in active development, primarily internally at Google,
with regular pushes to the open-source community. Snapshot releases are
auto-deployed to sonatype's central maven repository on a clean build with
the version 2.3-SNAPSHOT
.
You can find the dagger documentation here which has extended usage instructions and other useful information. Substantial usage information can be found in the API documentation.
You can also learn more from the original proposal, this talk by Greg Kick, and on the [email protected] mailing list.
You will need to include the dagger-2.1.jar
in your application's runtime.
In order to activate code generation and generate implementations to manage
your graph you will need to include dagger-compiler-2.1.jar
in your build
at compile time.
In a Maven project, include the dagger
artifact in the dependencies section
of your pom.xml
and the dagger-compiler
artifact as either an optional
or
provided
dependency:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.dagger</groupId>
<artifactId>dagger</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.dagger</groupId>
<artifactId>dagger-compiler</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
If you use the beta dagger-producers
extension (which supplies
parallelizable execution graphs), then add this to your maven configuration:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.dagger</groupId>
<artifactId>dagger-producers</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
// Add plugin https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/net.ltgt.apt
plugins {
id "net.ltgt.apt" version "0.5"
}
// Add Dagger dependencies
dependencies {
compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0.2'
apt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0.2'
}
// Add plugin https://bitbucket.org/hvisser/android-apt
buildscript {

}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8'
}
}
// Apply plugin
apply plugin: 'com.neenbedankt.android-apt'
// Add Dagger dependencies
dependencies {
compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.0.2'
apt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.0.2'
}
- 2.x (google/dagger)
- 1.x (square/dagger)
If you do not use maven, gradle, ivy, or other build systems that consume maven-style binary artifacts, they can be downloaded directly via the Maven Central Repository.
Developer snapshots are available from Sonatype's snapshot repository, and are built on a clean build of the GitHub project's master branch.
