26 /**
27  * A type annotation that identifies a {@link androidx.work.ListenableWorker}'s constructor for
28  * injection.
29  * <p>
30  * The {@code Worker} will be available for creation by the
31  * {@link androidx.hilt.work.HiltWorkerFactory} that should be set in {@code WorkManager}'s
32  * configuration via
33  * {@link androidx.work.Configuration.Builder#setWorkerFactory(androidx.work.WorkerFactory)}.
34  * The {@code HiltWorker} containing a constructor annotated with
35  * <a href="https://dagger.dev/api/latest/dagger/assisted/AssistedInject">AssistedInject</a> will
36  * have its dependencies defined in the constructor parameters injected by Dagger's Hilt.
37  * <p>
38  * Example:
39  * <pre>
40  * &#64;HiltWorker
41  * public class UploadWorker extends Worker {
42  *     &#64;AssistedInject
43  *     public UploadWorker(&#64;Assisted Context context, &#64;Assisted WorkerParameters params,
44  *             HttpClient httpClient) {
45  *         // ...
46  *     }
47  * }
48  * </pre>
49  * <pre>
50  * &#64;HiltAndroidApp
51  * public class MyApplication extends Application implements Configuration.Provider {
52  *     &#64;Inject HiltWorkerFactory workerFactory;
53  *
54  *     &#64;Override
55  *     public Configuration getWorkManagerConfiguration() {
56  *         return Configuration.Builder()
57  *                 .setWorkerFactory(workerFactory)
58  *                 .build();
59  *     }
60  * }
61  * </pre>
62  * <p>
63  * Only one constructor in the {@code Worker} must be annotated with
64  * <a href="https://dagger.dev/api/latest/dagger/assisted/AssistedInject">AssistedInject</a>.
65  * The constructor must define parameters for a
66  * <a href="https://dagger.dev/api/latest/dagger/assisted/Assisted">Assisted</a>-annotated
67  * {@code Context} and a
68  * <a href="https://dagger.dev/api/latest/dagger/assisted/Assisted">Assisted</a>-annotated
69  * {@code WorkerParameters} along with any other dependencies. Both the {@code Context} and
70  * {@code WorkerParameters} must not be a type param of {@link javax.inject.Provider} nor
71  * <a href="https://dagger.dev/api/latest/dagger/Lazy">Lazy</a> and must not be qualified.
72  * <p>
73  * Only dependencies available in the
74  * <a href="https://dagger.dev/api/latest/dagger/hilt/components/SingletonComponent">SingletonComponent</a>
75  * can be injected into the {@code Worker}.
