Not providing any value group does not return an error during invocation
Describe the bug
While requesting a value group in the input, in the Invoke method, dig does not check for the existence of any providers of the value group.
To Reproduce
Run the following code. The function is invoked without letting me know that there are no value group providers.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"go.uber.org/dig"
)
type Logger struct{}
type LogType string
const (
LogType_ERROR LogType = "ERROR"
LogType_INFO LogType = "INFO"
LogType_WARNING LogType = "WARNING"
)
func (l Logger) Log(logType LogType, message string) {
log.Println(logType, message)
}
type HttpClient struct {
logger *Logger
}
func (client *HttpClient) Get(url string) (string, error) {
client.logger.Log(LogType_INFO, "getting "+url)
return "You got " + url, nil
}
type HttpClientInput struct {
dig.In
Loggers []*Logger `group:"loggers"`
}
func NewHttpClient(input HttpClientInput) *HttpClient {
if len(input.Loggers) > 0 {
return &HttpClient{logger: input.Loggers[0]}
} else {
panic("should not execute")
}
}
func BuildContainer() *dig.Container {
container := dig.New()
if err := container.Provide(NewHttpClient); err != nil {
log.Println(err)
}
return container
}
func ExecuteFunction(client *HttpClient) {
res, _ := client.Get("foo.bar")
fmt.Println(res)
}
func main() {
container := BuildContainer()
if err := container.Invoke(ExecuteFunction); err != nil {
log.Println(err)
}
}
Expected behavior
The expected behaviour would be to return an error in the Invoke function after checking for providers.
Additional context If this is by design, could you suggest ways to implement this kind of a check using current methods.
Hey @paullen - as I mentioned in #184, this shouldn't be changed blindly as it would break a lot of users, but I think it's a good idea to add an option that can be passed to Dig to check for this.
