benchmark_di

Benchmark suite for cherrypick DI container, get_it, and other DI solutions.

Overview

benchmark_di is a flexible benchmarking suite to compare DI containers (like cherrypick and get_it) on synthetic, deep, and real-world dependency scenarios chains, factories, async, named, override, etc.

Features:

  • Universal registration layer and modular scenario setup (works with any DI)
  • Built-in support for cherrypick and get_it
  • Clean CLI for matrix runs and output formats (Markdown, CSV, JSON, pretty)
  • Reports metrics: timings, memory (RSS, peak), statistical spreads, and more
  • Extendable via your own DIAdapter or benchmark scenarios

Benchmark Scenarios

  • registerSingleton: Simple singleton registration/resolution
  • chainSingleton: Resolution of long singleton chains (A→B→C...)
  • chainFactory: Chain resolution via factories (new instances each time)
  • asyncChain: Async chain (with async providers)
  • named: Named/qualified resolution (e.g. from multiple implementations)
  • override: Resolution and override in subScopes/child adapters

Supported DI

  • cherrypick (default)
  • get_it
  • Easy to add your own DI by creating a DIAdapter

Switch DI with the CLI option: --di


How to Run

  1. Install dependencies:

    dart pub get
    
  2. Run all benchmarks (default: all scenarios, 2 warmup, 2 repeats):

    dart run bin/main.dart --benchmark=all --format=markdown
    
  3. For get_it:

    dart run bin/main.dart --di=getit --benchmark=all --format=markdown
    
  4. Show all CLI options:

    dart run bin/main.dart --help
    

CLI Parameters

  • --di — DI implementation: cherrypick (default) or getit
  • --benchmark, -b — Scenario: registerSingleton, chainSingleton, chainFactory, asyncChain, named, override, all
  • --chainCount, -c — Number of parallel chains (e.g. 10,100)
  • --nestingDepth, -d — Chain depth (e.g. 5,10)
  • --repeat, -r — Measurement repeats (default: 2)
  • --warmup, -w — Warmup runs (default: 1)
  • --format, -f — Output: pretty, csv, json, markdown
  • --help, -h — Usage

Run Examples

  • All benchmarks for cherrypick:

    dart run bin/main.dart --di=cherrypick --benchmark=all --format=markdown
    
  • For get_it (all scenarios):

    dart run bin/main.dart --di=getit --benchmark=all --format=markdown
    
  • Specify chains/depth matrix:

    dart run bin/main.dart --benchmark=chainSingleton --chainCount=10,100 --nestingDepth=5,10 --repeat=3 --format=csv
    

Universal DI registration: Adapter-centric approach

Starting from vX.Y.Z, all DI registration scenarios and logic are encapsulated in the adapter itself via the universalRegistration method.

How to use (in Dart code):

final di = CherrypickDIAdapter(); // or GetItAdapter(), RiverpodAdapter(), etc

di.setupDependencies(
  di.universalRegistration(
    scenario: UniversalScenario.chain,
    chainCount: 10,
    nestingDepth: 5,
    bindingMode: UniversalBindingMode.singletonStrategy,
  ),
);
  • There is no more need to use any global function or switch: each adapter provides its own type-safe implementation.

How to add a new scenario or DI:

  • Implement universalRegistration<S extends Enum>(...) in your adapter
  • Use your own Enum if you want adapter-specific scenarios!
  • Benchmarks and CLI become automatically extensible for custom DI and scenarios.

CLI usage (runs all universal scenarios for Cherrypick, GetIt, Riverpod):

dart run bin/main.dart --di=cherrypick --benchmark=all
dart run bin/main.dart --di=getit --benchmark=all
dart run bin/main.dart --di=riverpod --benchmark=all

See the benchmark_di/lib/di_adapters/ folder for ready-to-use adapters.


Advantages

  • Type-safe: Zero dynamic/object usage in DI flows.
  • Extensible: New scenarios are just new Enum values and a method extension.
  • No global registration logic: All DI-related logic is where it belongs: in the adapter.

=======

How to Add Your Own DI

  1. Implement a class extending DIAdapter (lib/di_adapters/your_adapter.dart)
  2. Implement the universalRegistration<S extends Enum>(...) method directly in your adapter for type-safe and scenario-specific registration
  3. Register your adapter in CLI (see cli/benchmark_cli.dart)
  4. No global function needed — all logic is within the adapter!
