When developing .NET applications, maintaining manageable and clean code is critical. Dependency Injection (DI) is a design pattern that facilitates loose coupling between classes, enhancing testability and maintainability. Simple Injector, a popular DI library, is renowned for its performance, flexibility, and ease of use. It allows developers to manage dependencies with minimal configuration.

IronPDF is a powerful .NET library for creating, reading, and modifying PDF documents. It supports a wide range of functionalities, including converting HTML to PDF and manipulating PDFs, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring dynamic PDF generation and handling.

This tutorial explains how to integrate IronPDF for seamless PDF creation and use Simple Injector to manage dependencies inside a C# application. By combining these two powerful tools, developers can construct applications that are more functional, scalable, maintainable, and efficient, whether it's a simple console application or a sophisticated enterprise system.

    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // Create the Simple Injector container
            var container = new Container();

            // Register your types
            container.Register<IUserService, UserService>(Lifestyle.Singleton);

            // Optionally verify the container configuration
            container.Verify();

            // Resolve an instance of IUserService and use it
            var userService = container.GetInstance<IUserService>();
            userService.ProcessUser();

            Console.WriteLine("Dependency Injection with Simple Injector is set up!");
        }
    }

    // Define the service interface
    public interface IUserService
    {
        void ProcessUser();
    }

    // Implement the service
    public class UserService : IUserService
    {
        public void ProcessUser()
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Processing user...");
        }
    }
}

        {
            // Create the Simple Injector container
            var container = new Container();

            // Register your types
            container.Register<IUserService, UserService>(Lifestyle.Singleton);

            // Optionally verify the container configuration
            container.Verify();

            // Resolve an instance of IUserService and use it
            var userService = container.GetInstance<IUserService>();
            userService.ProcessUser();

            Console.WriteLine("Dependency Injection with Simple Injector is set up!");
        }

  • var container = new Container();: Creates an instance of the Simple Injector container class.

  • container.Register<IUserService, UserService>(Lifestyle.Singleton);: Registers the IUserService interface with its implementation UserService as a singleton. Other lifestyles, such as Transient or Scoped, can also be utilized based on the requirement.

  • container.Verify();: Verifies the container configuration, checking the validity of the registrations. This step is optional but helps identify configuration errors early.

  • var userService = container.GetInstance<IUserService>();: Resolves an instance of IUserService from the container.

  • userService.ProcessUser();: Calls the ProcessUser method on the resolved instance.

To run the application, execute the following command in your terminal:

dotnet run
dotnet run

This C# code demonstrates the integration of IronPDF for PDF creation and Simple Injector for dependency injection into a .NET console application. A Simple Injector container is created to handle dependencies, registering IPdfService and its implementation PdfService as singletons to ensure a single instance is used throughout the application. The container configuration is verified to catch any registration issues early.

Simple Injector C# (How It Works For Developers): Figure 4 - Console output

In the Main method, an instance of IPdfService is resolved from the container and its GeneratePdf method is called. This method generates a PDF using IronPDF's HtmlToPdf class from a provided HTML string and saves the resulting document as output.pdf. A console message indicating the completion of PDF generation signals the end of the operation. This setup illustrates how to effectively manage dependencies and use IronPDF for creating dynamic PDF documents in a structured and maintainable manner.
