"""

Dependency Injection (DI) is a technique whereby one object supplies the dependencies (services)

to another object (client).

It allows to decouple objects: no need to change client code simply because an object it depends on

needs to be changed to a different one. (Open/Closed principle)

Port of the Java example of Dependency Injection" in

"xUnit Test Patterns - Refactoring Test Code" by Gerard Meszaros

(ISBN-10: 0131495054, ISBN-13: 978-0131495050)

In the following example `time_provider` (service) is embedded into TimeDisplay (client).

If such service performed an expensive operation you would like to substitute or mock it in tests.

class TimeDisplay(object):

def __init__(self):

self.time_provider = datetime.datetime.now

def get_current_time_as_html_fragment(self):

current_time = self.time_provider()

current_time_as_html_fragment = "<span class=\"tinyBoldText\">{}</span>".format(current_time)

return current_time_as_html_fragment

"""
