Pass parameters to constructor

[Peterculazh]

Hello, I would to figure out how I can pass parameters to constructor during resolving dependency?
Here example of my code where I expect to being dependencies injected and passed args to constructor to make my entity ready to go instead of manually passing data in props.

@injectable()
export class UserEntity {
    private _id: string | undefined;
    private _language: Language;

    constructor(
        @inject(IUserRepository) private userRepository: IUserRepository,
        { id, language }: { id?: string, language: Language }
    ) {
        // there may go some validation of incoming data
        this._id = id;
        this._language = language;
    }

    save() {
        if (!this._id) {
            return this.userRepository.update(this.id, this);
        }

        return this.userRepository.create(this);
    }

}

Hello, this is really not recommended practice, however you can use 2 approaches.

1. create another injectable service that you want to use in save where you can get an validate data.
2. create a factory to get what you want from the container link

Hope this helps.
