How to inject Google App Engine datastore with Guice?

Question

I'm trying to inject Google App Engine's datastore via Guice into my service:

public class FooServiceImpl implements FooService {

    private final DatastoreService datastoreService;

    @Inject
    public FooServiceImpl (DatastoreService datastoreService) {
        this.datastoreService = datastoreService;
    }
}

But when I try to run it, I get the following error:

No implementation for com.google.appengine.api.datastore.DatastoreService was bound.

Add @Provides method to your module:

@Provides
DatastoreService provideDatastoreService(){
    return DatastoreServiceFactory.getDatastoreService();
}
