Summary of Changes

Hello @kooksee, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request represents a major overhaul of the dix dependency injection framework, focusing on modularity, maintainability, and enhanced developer experience. It introduces dedicated packages for context management, web-based visualization, and graph rendering, while simultaneously modernizing the core logic by replacing third-party utilities with standard library equivalents. The extensive documentation updates and new examples ensure that users can quickly leverage the new capabilities and understand the framework's design principles.

Highlights

  • Core Refactoring and Dependency Cleanup: The core dixinternal package has undergone significant refactoring, removing external dependencies on github.com/pubgo/funk and replacing them with standard Go library features like errors, fmt, runtime/debug, and log/slog. This improves maintainability and reduces external library surface area.
  • New Modules for Enhanced Functionality: Three new modules have been introduced: dixcontext for context integration, dixhttp for HTTP-based dependency graph visualization, and dixrender for generating Graphviz DOT format dependency graphs. These additions greatly enhance the framework's observability and usability.
  • Comprehensive Documentation and Examples: The README.md has been extensively updated with detailed installation instructions, quick start guides, core features, usage examples (struct, func, map injection), build/test commands, API documentation, and explanations of extended features. New example files demonstrate the HTTP visualization and graph options.
  • Improved Error Handling and Panics: Error handling within the dixinternal package has been refined, with panics now being caught and converted into structured errors, often including stack traces. This provides more robust and debuggable behavior during dependency resolution and injection.
  • Build System and Code Quality Enhancements: The Makefile now includes a vet command for static analysis and the test command has been updated to generate coverage reports. The .golangci.yml configuration has been modified to enable issues.fix: true and integrate gofumpt for stricter code formatting.

Code Review

This is a substantial and impressive refactoring of the dix library, moving it to v2. The changes significantly improve the project's structure, maintainability, and feature set. Key improvements include:

  • Modernization: Migrating from the custom funk library to standard Go features like slog for logging and idiomatic error/panic handling.
  • Modularity: Decoupling the rendering logic into a new dixrender package.
  • New Features: The addition of an interactive HTTP visualization server (dixhttp) and context-aware containers (dixcontext) are excellent enhancements.
  • Documentation & Testing: The README has been completely overhauled and is now very comprehensive, and the new test suite in dixinternal is thorough.

My review focuses on ensuring consistency in the new patterns and identifying small areas for improvement. I've suggested a few minor changes to align error handling in the dixcontext package, fix a typo in the README.md, and broaden the scope of the test command in the Makefile. Overall, this is a very high-quality contribution.

The test command is currently scoped to only the dixinternal package. To ensure all parts of the refactored project are tested, including the new dixrender, dixhttp, and dixcontext packages, it would be beneficial to run tests for all sub-packages. Changing the path to ./... will accomplish this and encourage adding tests to the other packages in the future.

	@go test -v ./... -covermode=count -coverprofile=coverage.out

The use of log.Panicln in Get and Create is inconsistent with the rest of the codebase, which has been refactored to use panic with an error (e.g., panic(errors.New(...))). Using panic directly provides more consistent stack traces and error handling throughout the project.

This change would also allow removing the import "log" in favor of import "errors", aligning better with the project's move to slog for structured logging.

func Get(ctx context.Context) *dix.Dix {
	if ctx == nil {
		panic(errors.New("ctx is nil"))
	}

	di, ok := ctx.Value(dixKey{}).(*dix.Dix)
	if !ok {
		panic(errors.New("dix not found in context"))
	}
	return di
}

func Create(ctx context.Context, dix *dix.Dix) context.Context {
	if ctx == nil {
		panic(errors.New("ctx is nil"))
	}

	if dix == nil {
		panic(errors.New("dix is nil"))
	}

	return context.WithValue(ctx, dixKey{}, dix)
}
