How to create dependency injection for ASP.NET MVC 5?

Question

Creating Dependency Injection with ASP.NET Core is fairly easy. The documentation explains it very well here and this guy has a killer video to explain it.

I recommend using Windsor, by installing the nuget package Castle Windsor MVC Bootstrapper, then you can create a service that implements IWindsorInstaller, something like this:

public class ServiceRegister : IWindsorInstaller
{
    public void Install(Castle.Windsor.IWindsorContainer container,
    Castle.MicroKernel.SubSystems.Configuration.IConfigurationStore store)
    {
        SomeTypeRequiredByConstructor context = new SomeTypeRequiredByConstructor ();

        container.Register(
            Component
                .For()
                .ImplementedBy().
             DependsOn(Dependency.OnValue(context))//This is in case your service has parametrize constructoe
                .LifestyleTransient());
    }
}

Then inside your controller something like this:

public class MyController 
{
    IServiceToRegister _serviceToRegister;

    public MyController (IServiceToRegister serviceToRegister)
    {
        _serviceToRegister = serviceToRegister;//Then you can use it inside your controller
    }
}

And by default the library will handle sending the right service to your controller by calling the install() of ServiceRegister at start up because it implements IWindsorInstaller
