Autofac WebAPI通用服务定位器

Question

So reading Autofac documentation on using it with WebApi, it says:

A common error in OWIN integration is use of the GlobalConfiguration.Configuration

I have a BaseController which uses the IMediator and to get an instance from the container I use the GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.DependencyResolver.GetService() .

If I don't use GlobalConfiguration what other options do I have to inject the IMediator .

It's nice not to use constructor injection because then other api controllers don't need to have a constructor, and because of IMediator rarely will.

I've looked at property injection but I couldn't understand how to integrate it in the web api scenario, I use the builder.RegisterApiControllers and it doesn't look as though integrating property injection on the base controller fits this approach.

Answer 1

builder.RegisterApiControllers() returns IRegistrationBuilder which means you can continue customizing Controller registration from there. For instance if you need to apply property injection to your Controllers you could use the following code:

builder.RegisterApiControllers().PropertiesAutowired();
