# DI Container Generator
## Overview
Generates Dependency Injection container configuration components for PHP 8.5 following DDD and Clean Architecture principles.
## When to Use
- Setting up new bounded context DI configuration
- Creating service provider/module for feature
- Configuring autowiring and interface bindings
- Registering tagged services (handlers, strategies)
- Setting up factory-based service creation
## Generated Components
| Component | Location | Purpose |
|-----------|----------|---------|
| Module | `src/Infrastructure/DependencyInjection/{Context}Module.php` | Service registration |
| ServiceProvider | `src/Infrastructure/DependencyInjection/{Context}ServiceProvider.php` | Laravel-style provider |
| Extension | `src/Infrastructure/DependencyInjection/{Context}Extension.php` | Symfony bundle extension |
| Configuration | `config/services/{context}.yaml` | YAML configuration |
| CompilerPass | `src/Infrastructure/DependencyInjection/Compiler/{Name}Pass.php` | Service manipulation |
## Input Requirements
1. **Context name** - Bounded context (e.g., "Order", "Payment")
2. **Framework** - Symfony, Laravel, or PHP-DI
3. **Services to register** - Interfaces and implementations
4. **Tagged services** - Handlers, strategies, listeners

## SOLID Compliance
| Principle | Implementation |
|-----------|----------------|
| SRP | Module only handles DI registration |
| OCP | Tagged services enable extension without modification |
| DIP | Interface-to-implementation bindings |
| ISP | Small focused modules per context |
