Usage notes

The following example shows a class constructor that specifies a custom provider of a dependency using the parameter decorator.

When @Inject() is not present, the injector uses the type annotation of the parameter as the provider.

class Engine {}

@Injectable()
class Car {
  constructor(public engine: Engine) {
  }  // same as constructor(@Inject(Engine) engine:Engine)
}

const injector = Injector.create(
    {providers: [{provide: Engine, deps: []}, {provide: Car, deps: [Engine]}]});
expect(injector.get(Car).engine instanceof Engine).toBe(true);
