An opinionated view on how to do dependency injection and FXML view handling in JavaFX.

Complementary Blog Posts:

• Introducing FxWeaver - Dependency Injection Support for JavaFX and FXML

• Creating a Spring Boot JavaFX Application with FxWeaver

Features:

• Supportive tooling for using JavaFX together with dependency injection frameworks such as Spring or CDI

• Declarative FXML view binding - Create a controller class and annotate it with @FxmlView and let FxWeaver handle view loading and instantiating

• Support for fx:controller attribute in FXML, with controller classes being instantiated, autowired and fully managed by your DI framework of choice

• Acquire managed controller instances with automatically weaved FXML views

• Support for tiling / componentisation: Create view components with independent controllers and aggregate them in other views using fx:include, again with full DI support

• SceneBuilder fully supported, even when creating and using view tiles

• Spring and Spring Boot specific:

  • Support for direct injection of FxControllerAndView instances based on generic types

  • Spring Boot Starter including auto-configuration
