modern-di is a python dependency injection framework which supports the following:

• Automatic dependency graph based on type annotations
• Also, explicit dependencies are allowed where needed
• Scopes and context management
• Python 3.10+ support
• Fully typed and tested
• Integrations with aiohttp, FastAPI, FastStream, Litestar, Starlette and Typer
• Pytest integration (modern-di-pytest) — turns any DI dependency into a pytest fixture

Install

uv add modern-di      # or: pip install modern-di

Quick Start

import dataclasses
from modern_di import Container, Group, Scope, providers


@dataclasses.dataclass(kw_only=True, slots=True, frozen=True)
class Settings:
    database_url: str = "postgresql+asyncpg://localhost/app"


@dataclasses.dataclass(kw_only=True, slots=True)
class UserRepository:
    settings: Settings  # auto-injected by type


class Dependencies(Group):
    settings = providers.Factory(Settings, scope=Scope.APP)
    user_repository = providers.Factory(UserRepository, scope=Scope.REQUEST)


with Container(groups=[Dependencies], validate=True) as container:
    with container.build_child_container(scope=Scope.REQUEST) as request:
        repo = request.resolve(UserRepository)
        print(repo.settings.database_url)

See the documentation for scopes, lifecycles, finalizers, and framework integrations. modern-di is deliberately conservative — see Design decisions for what it leaves out on purpose, including auto-binding, in-package integrations, and graph rendering.

Usage examples:

• with Litestar - litestar-sqlalchemy-template
• with FastAPI - fastapi-sqlalchemy-template
