A little extension that allows a simple registry to be injected in to FeatureContexts, allowing steps to share data across contexts if necessary

The only documented way to install behat-registry is with composer

$ composer.phar require --dev davedevelopment/behat-registry:* 

Add the extension to your behat.yml file:

default:
    extensions:
        DaveDevelopment\BehatRegistry\Extension:

If you implement the DaveDevelopment\BehatRegistry\Context\Initializer\RegistryAwareInterface with your Context classes, they will have a Registry injected.

<?php 

use DaveDevelopment\BehatRegistry\Context\Initializer\RegistryAwareInterface;
use DaveDevelopment\BehatRegistry\Registry;

class FeatureContext implements RegistryAwareInterface
{
    public function setRegistry(Registry $registry)
    {
        $this->registry = $registry;
    }

If you want some items to persist between scenarios, call the persist method with the key.

<?php

    $this->registry->userId = 123;
    $this->registry->persist("userId");
