Filters

wp_container

/**
 * @param array $definitions container definitions.
 */
apply_filters('wp_container', $definitions);

The filter should be used to configure container definitions for your code. It supports the following formats:

• ClassName::class to simply add some class to the container, but normally it's not needed, because the container supports auto-wiring.
• InterfaceName::class => ClassName::class to specify another implementation of some class/interface.
• ClassName::class => $instance to bind a class name with a pre-created instance.
• ClassName::class => $callable to bind a class name with some callable factory.

This filter is used on after_setup_theme action to create the container, so the container is completely available on init hook (or on the same after_setup_theme but with lower priority).
