Welcome to Gaderian
gaderian ['gaderian]: (Old English) to assemble, to put together, to collect, to gather
Gaderian
is an services and configuration microkernel.
Its features are also referred to as Inversion of Control (IoC) Container
or Lightweight Container.
The adoption of Gaderian in an application ensures the use of
certain design principles which improve encapsulation, modularization,
testability and reusability.
- Services: Gaderian
services are
POJOs
(Plain Old Java Objects) that can be easily
accessed and combined. Each service ideally defines a Java interface it
implements (this is not mandatory). Gaderian takes care of the life cycle
of services. It instantiates and finalizes services and configures each
service just as necessary. Gaderian lets services collaborate with each
other via dependency injection, so that the service code itself
is released from the task of looking up dependencies.
- Configuration:
Gaderian allows you to provide complex configuration data to your
services in a format
you
define. Gaderian will integrate the
contributions of such data from multiple modules and convert it all into
data objects for you. Gaderian configurations allow for powerful,
data-driven solutions which combine seemlessly with the service
architecture.
