Core: Ioc in app/services instead providers/

[romulo1984]

The app/services folder is autoloaded by default. But is it possible to bind my services within this folder using IoC, so I do not need to use 'new' to instantiate my class and not use ServiceProvider?

Example:

// app/services/HelloService.js
class HelloService {
    constructor (Config) {
        this.Config = Config
    }

    foo () {
        return 'foo'
    }
}

module.exports = HelloService

// app/controllers/HelloController.js
const HelloService = use('app/services/HelloService')

class HelloController {
    bar () {
        const foo = HelloService.foo()
    }
}

Simply export new HelloService()?

In this case I should pass the configuration reference, right?

const { ioc } = require('@adonisjs/fold')
const Config = ioc.use('Adonis/Src/Config')

module.exports = new HelloService(Config)

Once your code is inside your own Adonis app, there is no need to complex things. The real benefit of IoC bindings is, when you want to distribute the code.

Keep it as simple as

const Config = use('Config')

class HelloService {
}

module.exports = new HelloService()

Thank you, @thetutlage.

By the way, every day I love AdonisJS more, congratulations.
