Using container entries as request handlers

The class Ellipse\Handlers\ContainerRequestHandler takes an implementation of Psr\Container\ContainerInterface and a container id as parameters. Its ->handle() method retrieve a request handler from the container using this id and proxy its ->handle() method.

It can be useful in situations the container entry should be resolved at the time the request is handled.

An Ellipse\Handlers\Exceptions\ContainedRequestHandlerTypeException is thrown when the value retrieved from the container is not an object implementing Psr\Http\Server\RequestHandlerInterface.

<?php

namespace App;

use SomePsr11Container;

use Ellipse\Handlers\ContainerRequestHandler;

// Get some Psr-11 container.
$container = new SomePsr11Container;

// Add a request handler in the container.
$container->set('some.request.handler', function () {

    return new SomeRequestHandler;

});

// Create a container request handler with the Psr-11 container and the entry id.
$handler = new ContainerRequestHandler($container, 'some.request.handler');

// The handler ->handle() method retrieve the request handler from the container and proxy it.
$response = $handler->handle($request);

Example using auto wiring

It can be cumbersome to register every request handler classes in the container. Here is how to auto wire request handler instances using the Ellipse\Container\ReflectionContainer class from the ellipse/container-reflection package.

<?php

namespace App;

use Psr\Http\Server\RequestHandlerInterface;

use SomePsr11Container;

use Ellipse\Container\ReflectionContainer;
use Ellipse\Handlers\ContainerRequestHandler;

// Get some Psr-11 container.
$container = new SomePsr11Container;

// Decorate the container with a reflection container.
// Specify the request handler implementations can be auto wired.
$reflection = new ReflectionContainer($container, [
    RequestHandlerInterface::class,
]);

// Create a container request handler with the reflection container and a request handler class name.
$handler = new ContainerRequestHandler($reflection, SomeRequestHandler::class);

// An instance of SomeRequestHandler is built and its ->handle() method is proxied.
$response = $handler->handle($request);
