Context Local Resource provider¶
ContextLocalResource inherits from Resource provider and uses the same initialization and shutdown logic
as the standard Resource provider.
It extends it with context-local storage using Python’s contextvars module.
This means that objects are context local singletons - the same context will
receive the same instance, but different execution contexts will have their own separate instances.
This is particularly useful in asynchronous applications where you need per-request resource instances (such as database sessions) that are automatically cleaned up when the request context ends. Example:
from fastapi import Depends, FastAPI
from dependency_injector import containers, providers
from dependency_injector.wiring import Closing, Provide, inject
global_list = []
class AsyncSessionLocal:
def __init__(self):
self.id = uuid4()
async def __aenter__(self):
print("Entering session !")
return self
async def __aexit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb):
print("Closing session !")
async def execute(self, user_input):
return f"Executing {user_input} in session {self.id}"
app = FastAPI()
class Container(containers.DeclarativeContainer):
db_session = providers.ContextLocalResource(AsyncSessionLocal)
@app.get("/")
@inject
async def index(db: AsyncSessionLocal = Depends(Closing[Provide["db_session"]])):
if db.id in global_list:
raise Exception("The db session was already used") # never reaches here
global_list.append(db.id)
res = await db.execute("SELECT 1")
return str(res)
if __name__ == "__main__":
import uvicorn
container = Container()
container.wire(modules=["__main__"])
uvicorn.run(app, host="localhost", port=8000)
container.unwire()
