I'm having a similar problem like the one in this question.
While the accepted answer does help, but I'm missing final piece to solve the problem.
I have 2 android library modules: common and exp which depends on common.
Everything under common:
#Module
public class CommonModule {
#Singleton
#Provides
public Repository providesRepository() {
return new Repository();
}
}
#Singleton
#Component(modules={CommonModule.class})
public interface CommonComponent {
void inject(CommonClass commonClass);
/**
CommonClass needs instance of Repository
**/
}
public class CommonDIHolder {
public static CommonComponent sComponent;
public static void init() {
sComponent = DaggerCommonComponent.builder().build();
}
}
Everything under exp:
#Module(includes={CommonModule.class})
public class ExpModule {
#Singleton
#Provides
public ExpResource provideExpResource() {
return new ExpResource();
}
}
#Singleton
#Component(modules={ExpModule.class}, dependencies={CommonComponent.class})
public interface ExpComponent {
void inject(ExpClass expClass);
/**
ExpClass needs instance of Repository and ExpResource
**/
}
public class ExpDIHolder {
public static ExpComponent sComponent;
public static void init() {
sComponent = DaggerExpComponent.builder()
.commonComponent(CommonDIHolder.sComponent)
.build();
}
}
I need both CommonClass and ExpClass receive the same instance of Repository.
The problem with this approach is that #Singleton can't depends on #Singleton. So I have to change the scope of ExpComponent into self-defined scope called #ExpScope. Then I changed the provideExpResource into #ExpScope as well.
Then I encountered an error saying that ExpComponent may not reference bindings with different scopes. It refers to the provideRepository which has different scope (#Singleton) on it. If I changed the scope into ExpScope then the CommonComponent will have different scope with provideRepository.
If I changed all #Singleton into #ExpScope then I receive this error message: depends on scoped components in a non-hierarchical scope ordering
What should I do? Or I'm doing the wrong approach here?
Use one and only one #Singleton scoped component
You should have one and only one #Singleton scoped component like this:
#Singleton
#Component(modules={CommonModule.class, ExpModule.class})
public interface CommonComponent {
}
Only specify Activities, Fragments, and Services as explicit injection targets for Components
In an Android app, you should only list Activities, Fragments and Services as injection sites. You should configure Dagger 2 to inject the rest of your dependencies without having to resort to calling component.inject(this) inside them.
For example, if your CommonClass looks like this:
public class CommonClass {
#Inject Repository repository;
public class CommonClass() {
CommonComponentHolder.get().inject(this);
}
}
Refactor it like this:
public class CommonClass {
private final Repository repository;
#Inject
public class CommonClass(Repository repository) {
this.repository = repository;
}
}
Now when you have an Activity or Fragment that needs CommonClass and you are injecting with CommonComponent or one of its sub-components or dependent components, they can obtain instances of CommonClass wired with the correct dependencies:
public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Inject CommonClass commonClass;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
CommonComponentHolder.getComponent().inject(this);
}
}
Use subcomponents or dependent components to specify the injection targets
Now you have a #Singleton scoped component, you'll probably want to create a component for a narrower scope for your Activity or Fragment. You'll have to connect it to your CommonComponent, so use dependent components or subcomponents (subcomponents are preferred as of Dagger 2.10). Since you say you have already tried defining a #ExpScope, I think the missing piece is to make subcomponent or dependent component with the #ExpScope that injects your Activity or Fragment.
Something like the following for the top-level singleton component:
#Singleton
#Component(modules={CommonModule.class, ExpModule.class})
public interface CommonComponent {
ExpComponent.Builder exComponent();
}
And then for the subcomponent:
#ExpScope
#Subcomponent(modules = {NarrowerScopedModule.class})
public interface ExpComponent {
#Subcomponent.Builder
public interface Builder {
Builder narrowerScopedModule(NarrowerScopedModule narrowerScopedModule);
ExpComponent build();
}
}
There are good working examples of Android projects in the Google Android Architecture Blueprints Github repo

How do I create a singleton object that I can access anywhere from any place in my code?
Objects(1) from which I want to inject my signleton component can't be created withing dagger.
Those objects don't have common dependencies which I can access (like getApplication()
Quick to an example:
InjectedClass:
public class InjectedClass {
public InjectedClass() {
System.out.println("injected class created");
}
}
HolderClassA:
public class HolderClassA { // this is one of object I marked with (1)
#Inject InjectedClass b;
public HolderClassA() {
Injector build = DaggerInjector.builder().build();
build.inject(this);
System.out.println(b);
}
}
HolderClassB:
public class HolderClassB { // this is another object I marked with (1)
#Inject InjectedClass b;
public HolderClassB() {
Injector build = DaggerInjector.builder().build();
build.inject(this);
System.out.println(b);
}
}
Provider:
#Module
public class Provider {
#Provides
#Singleton
InjectedClass provideInjectedClass() {
return new InjectedClass();
}
}
Injector:
#Component(modules = {Provider.class})
#Singleton
public interface Injector {
void inject(HolderClassA a);
void inject(HolderClassB a);
}
Somewhere in code:
new HolderClassA();
Somewhere else in code that is NO WAY related to previous code, nor has the same parent or can access same objects (like in dagger guide with getApplication()):
new HolderClassB();
Actual result: two instances of InjectedClass are crated
Expected result: a single instance of InjectedClass is created.
The issue is DaggerInjector.builder().build(); creates different scopes which don't know about each other. For example, I can solve this issue by creating static variable DaggerInjector.builder().build() and call inject from it. But thus it wouldn't be dependency injection anymore, but rather not trivial singleton pattern.
From what I understand from comments, you want separate components for your holder classes, that would inject same instance? Pardon me if I am wrong.
You can try this.
#Component(modules = arrayOf(AppModule::class))
#Singleton
interface AppComponent {
//sub components
fun plusHolderClass1(holderModule: HolderModule1):HolderComponent1
fun plusHolderClass2(holderModule: HolderModule2):HolderComponent2
//provision methods
fun getInjectedClass():InjectedClass
}
This is your application component, or the top level component, that you initialise in your application, of course using your Module class that will provide the Injected class as a singleton.
#Subcomponent(modules = arrayOf(HolderModule1::class))
#ActivityScope
interface HolderComponent1{
fun inject(holder:Holder1)
}
And a similar one for Holder2 class. You can define your local scope dependencies in the modules.
But of course even in this case you have to store the instance of appComponent in Application class.
While injecting
appComponent.plusHolderComponent1(HolderModule1()).inject(yourObject)
The InjectedClass object will be injected to yourObject by fetching it from provision methods
Hello I am new to Dagger2.
Goal. Take my Networking DI and MVP DI. MVP as in the presenter for an an activity that extends base activity. I want to combine all this into one super module and place this into my base activity. Over time add more presenters.
I do not want 30+ inject statements in my baseActivity.
I am following this example but it is too simple compared to what I am trying to do.
I think the issue is with injecting the API at the base activity. For some reason Dagger is looking for Api in my MVP class.. So that would be a dependency graph issue?
Having spent more time on this.. The issue stems from Mvp's interface of baseActivity or any sub activity that extends baseActivity. That means when it goes to inject, it sees the #inject Api call, and cannot find it. It will work if I add Api to this module, but thats upside down of what I want. I want Component / Module for Application level items. I then want a component / module that has all my different MVP component in one module.. It's like Dagger starts looking for dependencies in the leaf of a tree and getting upset when it doesn't see whats in the root. I need it to go the other way. Be satisfied that I injected the dependency in the Root activity.
Base Activity...
#inject
public ApiClient mClient;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mManager = new SharedPreferencesManager(this);
DaggerInjector.get().inject(this);
}
DaggerInjector
public class DaggerInjector {
private static AppComponent appComponent = DaggerAppComponent.builder().appModule(new AppModule()).build();
public static AppComponent get() {
return appComponent;
}
}
#Component(modules = {AppModule.class, ApiModule.class, MvpModule.class})
#Singleton
public interface AppComponent {
void inject(BaseActivity activity);
}
Api
#Singleton
#Component(modules = {ApiModule.class})
public interface ApiComponent {
void inject( BaseActivity activity);
}
#Module
public class ApiModule {
#Provides
#Singleton
public ApiClient getApiClient(){
return new ApiClient();
}
}
Mvp
#Singleton
#Component(modules = {MvpModule.class})
public interface MvpComponent {
void inject(BaseActivity activity);
}
#Module
public class MvpModule {
#Provides
#Singleton
public MvpPresenter getMvpPresenter(){ return new MvpPresenter();}
}
Error:(16, 10) error: ApiClient cannot be provided without an #Inject constructor or from an #Provides- or #Produces-annotated method. This type supports members injection but cannot be implicitly provided.
ApiClient is injected at
...BaseActivity.ApiClient
...BaseActivity is injected at
MvpComponent.inject(activity)
I found out my problem. I needed to use a subcomponent.
#Singleton
#Subcomponent(modules = {MvpModule.class})
public interface MvpComponent {
void inject(BaseActivity activity);
}
#Module
public class MvpModule {
#Provides
#Singleton
public MvpPresenter getMvpPresenter(){ return new MvpPresenter();}
}

Dagger2 activity scope, how many modules/components do i need?
I have singleton class that 2 other classes depend on: another singleton and a service. The problem is that in practice each of them receives a different instance of what's supposed to be a singleton. I'm trying to figure out why. Here's the gist of it:
The singleton dependency class:
#Singleton
public class SingletonDependency {
#Inject
public SingletonDependency() {
// ...
}
}
The other singleton which depends on it:
#Singleton
public class DependentClass {
#Inject
public DependentClass(SingletonDependency singletonDependency) {
// ...
}
}
The service which depends on it:
public class DependentService extends Service {
#Inject SingletonDependency mSingletonDependency;
#Override
public void onCreate() {
CoreInjector.INSTANCE.getCoreComponent().inject(this);
}
}
I do not provide SingletonDependency explicitly since it has a #Inject constructor and Dagger2 takes care of it for me. Is this the root of it?
Edit:
Here's my injector:
public enum CoreInjector {
INSTANCE;
private CoreComponent mCoreComponent;
public void init(Context context) { // called by the Application's onCreate()
mCoreComponent = DaggerCoreComponent.builder()
.coreModule(new CoreModule(context))
.build();
}
public CoreComponent getCoreComponent() {
return mCoreComponent;
}
}
The Component itself:
#Singleton
#Component(modules = {CoreModule.class})
public interface CoreComponent {
void inject(DependentService dependentService);
}
The Module itself doesn't provide the dependency explicitly, but once I do, everything works as expected - same instance.
Edit 2
Conclusions posted as an answer.
I figured it out. My singleton class implements an interface, which is what my dependent classes depends on - not the implementation. I guess Dagger2 can't make that leap even though the implementation has a injected constructor.
Explicit #Provides method in a module was the only way to go.
Another possible cause of a singleton created many times is that #Singleton is enforced only by #Component. If a singleton is called by another #Component (or another instance of the same component), it will be re-created.
I've started using Dagger 2 and faced strange issue that looks like a bug to me.
I have 3 modules, that are composed into one subcomponent, which in turn extends/pluses higher level component.
Subcomponent is pretty simple: just combination of modules and a single injection point:
#Singleton
#Subcomponent(
modules = {
NavigationDrawerModule.class,
NavigationListModule.class,
SwitcherModule.class
}
)
public interface NavigationDrawerComponent {
NavigationDrawerFragment inject(NavigationDrawerFragment object);
}
First modules looks like this - it provides general fragment-level dependencies:
#Module
public class NavigationDrawerModule {
private final Activity activity;
private final View rootView;
private final LoaderManager loaderManager;
public NavigationDrawerModule(Activity activity, View rootView, LoaderManager loaderManager) {
this.activity = activity;
this.rootView = rootView;
this.loaderManager = loaderManager;
}
#Provides #Singleton EventBus provideLocalBus() {
return EventBus.builder().build();
}
#Provides #Singleton View provideViewRoot() {
return rootView;
}
#Provides #Singleton LoaderManager provideLoaderManager() {
return loaderManager;
}
#Provides #Singleton Context provideContext() {
return activity;
}
}
Second module looks like this - it provides presenter/controller and their dependencies for a subset of UI on screen:
#Module
public class SwitcherModule {
#Provides SwitchController provideSwitcherController(SwitchControllerImpl impl) {
return impl;
}
#Provides SwitcherView provideSwitcherView(SwitcherViewImpl impl) {
return impl;
}
}
Third module - another presenter/controller for a subset of UI:
#Module
public class NavigationListModule {
#Provides #Singleton NavigationListController provideNavigationListController(NavigationListControllerImpl impl) {
return impl;
}
#Provides #Singleton NavigationListView provideNavigationListView(NavigationListViewImpl impl) {
return impl;
}
}
Relevant part of the fragment that is being injected:
#Inject SwitchController identitySwitchController;
#Inject SwitcherView identitySwitcherView;
#Inject NavigationListController navigationListController;
#Inject NavigationListView navigationListView;
NavigationListControllerImpl implements the following constructor:
#Inject
public NavigationListControllerImpl(Context ctx, EventBus bus) {
this.ctx = ctx;
this.bus = bus;
}
Error I'm getting from the Dagger 2 compiler is the following:
error: ...sidenavigation.navigationlist.NavigationListControllerImpl cannot be provided without an #Inject constructor or from an #Provides-annotated method.
...sidenavigation.NavigationDrawerFragment.navigationListController
[injected field of type: ...sidenavigation.navigationlist.NavigationListController navigationListController]
...sidenavigation.navigationlist.NavigationListModule.provideNavigationListController(...sidenavigation.navigationlist.NavigationListControllerImpl impl)
[parameter: ...sidenavigation.navigationlist.NavigationListControllerImpl impl]
Error complains about missing #Inject-annotated constructor, but it exists! If I replace implicit NavigationListControllerImpl instance creation (passing via #Provides-method parameter) with explicit (with new), dagger starts complaining about the same error but now for the presenter object which is the second entry in the same module, and so on.
All this situation looks very strange, and I'd like to hear some input from more experienced Dagger 2 users (and developers?).
Thank you in advance!
I got this same error because I forgot to expose the objects provided by the modules in the parent component to the other components that are depend on it.
Parent component example:
#Singleton
#Component(modules = {AppModule.class})
public interface AppComponent {
AppPref exposeAppPref(); /* my issue was caused by forgot this line,
the method name doesn't matter, what matters is the object type AppPref provided in the AppModule
that you want it to be available in the component that declares this component as one of its dependencies*/
}
Sample component that makes the above component as a dependency
#UserScope
#Component (dependencies = {AppComponent.class})
public interface ActivityComponent {
void inject(MainActivity activity);
}
Update:
AppModule:
...
#Provides
#Singleton
AppPref provideAppPref() {
return appPref;
}
...
The GlobalComponent and the subcomponent NavigationDrawerComponent must have different scopes. Use #Singleton for your GlobalComponent and some another scope for the subcomponent.
Otherwise, if you apply the same scope to the GlobalComponent and to the subcomponent, you must declare the modules of your subcomponent in your global component as well:
#Component(
// modules from subcomponent must be declared here also
modules = {NavigationListModule.class,
SwitcherModule.class,
NavigationDrawerModule.class,
...}
)
#Singleton
public interface GlobalComponent {
NavigationDrawerComponent plus(NavigationDrawerModule module);
}
For your use case, you can also use component dependencies. For instance:
#Component(
dependencies = GlobalComponent.class,
modules = {NavigationListModule.class,
SwitcherModule.class,
NavigationDrawerModule.class}
)
#YourOtherDaggerScope // #Singleton scope won't work here, it must be a different scope
public interface NavigationDrawerComponent extends GlobalComponent { // extend the parent component if you wish to get access to parent dependencies
NavigationDrawerFragment inject(NavigationDrawerFragment object);
}
Seems like I've figured out what was wrong with my Dagger 2 setup. It's not possible to use the same scope in both component and subcomponents. It's required to define a new scope for subcomponent. In my case I've ended up creating #Screen scope for me subcomponent.
I'd say that this is a small but very annoying defect in Dagger 2. Apparently dagger-compiler reports nice and understandable error about the same scopes in a parent component and child component if child component is extended with a parent component as dependency. But completely misleading error is reported by the compiler if parent component and child subcomponent share the same scope.
Thank you, #lukas, for giving me a hint here https://stackoverflow.com/a/30383088/808313 that led to a problem resolution.
Came accross this issue today too. For me there was a problem with the Annotation processing (on Android Studio 2.2 with gradle 2.x).
Instead of ~~apt~~ I used annotationProcessor
I used
annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.6'
and now It's working.
Came across the same issue while trying to create Subcomponents, but it seems to be fixed in Dagger 2.0.1.
Seems it is the same kinda error dagger reports for many mistakes. In my case, my target injection was expecting concrete class (Presenter) where as the module that provides presenter was returning only the interface (DemoContract.Presenter)
So changed from
#Inject
public Presenter mDemoPresenter;
to
#Inject
public DemoContract.Presenter mDemoPresenter;
and module that provides presenter looks like this:
#Module
public class DiDemoPresenterModule {
private final DemoContract.View mView;
DiDemoPresenterModule(MainActivity mView) {
this.mView = mView;
}
#Provides
public DemoContract.Presenter providesDemoPresenter(Repository repository) {
return new DemoPresenter(repository, mView);
}
}
I am not quite sure how to solve this with dagger 2.
Lets assume we have ApplicationModule that provides us ApplicationContext
then we have ApplicationComponent that uses just this one module.
Then on top of it we have ActivityModule and ActivityComponent that has dependency on ApplicationComponent.
ActivityComponent is build just like
ApplicationComponent component = ((MyApplication) getApplication()).getComponent();
mComponent = Dagger_ActivityComponent.builder()
.applicationComponent(component)
.activityModule(new ActivityModule(this))
.build();
And then I inject my activity:
mComponent.inject(this);
Now I am able to use everything that is declared inside my ActivityModule, however it is not possible for me to access ApplicationModule.
So the question is how could that be achieved? So that when I build component that depends on another component I can still access module from the first one?
EDIT
I think I have found solutions, after rewatching Devoxx talk by Jake again, I have had to miss that out, whatever I want to use from another components module I have to provide in that component, for example I want to use Context from ApplicationModule then inside ApplicationComponent I have to state Context provideContext(); and it is going to be available. Pretty cool :)
You have already answered your question, but the answer is to specify the provision methods in your "superscoped" component (ApplicationComponent).
For example,
#Module
public class ApplicationModule {
#Provides
#Singleton
public Something something() {
return new Something.Builder().configure().build();
// if Something can be made with constructor,
// use #Singleton on the class and #Inject on the constructor
// and then the module is not needed
}
}
#Singleton
#Component(modules={ApplicationModule.class})
public interface ApplicationComponent {
Something something(); //PROVISION METHOD. YOU NEED THIS.
}
#Scope
#Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
public #interface ActivityScope {
}
#ActivityScope
public class OtherThing {
private final Something something;
#Inject
public OtherThing(Something something) {
this.something = something;
}
}
#Component(dependencies = {ApplicationComponent.class})
#ActivityScope
public interface ActivityComponent extends ApplicationComponent { //inherit provision methods
OtherThing otherThing();
}
