Allow name and group Result Tags
Describe the solution you'd like
This is linked from an Fx feature request: https://github.com/uber-go/fx/issues/998
Furthermore, it is a necessary stepping stone to another Fx feature request https://github.com/uber-go/fx/issues/1036
The restriction on allowing name and group tags seems artificial. For example, this is not permitted:
type Result struct {
dig.Out
Foo1 Foo `name:"foo1" group:"foos"`
}
In order to populate by name and groups elsewhere.
Describe alternatives you've considered
An output dig struct can be written with multiple outputs, but that is rather clumsy.
type Result struct {
dig.Out
Foo1 Foo `name:"foo1"`
Foos []Foo `group:"foos"`
}
Is this a breaking change?
Not likely. Since the desired behaviour is not currently permitted, it should not break any existing applications.
