+## Using with an IoC Container
+
+Install the IoC container and the serviceFactory for the IoC Container
+
+```bash
+npm install typescript-rest --save
+npm install typescript-ioc --save
+npm install typescript-rest-ioc --save
+```
+
+Then add a rest.config file in the root of your project:
+
+```json
+{
+  "serviceFactory": "typescript-rest-ioc"
+}
+```
+
+And you can use Injections, Request scopes and all the features of the IoC Container. It is possible to use it with any other IoC Container, like Inversify.
+
+Example:
+
+```typescript
+class HelloService {
+  sayHello(name: string) {
+    return "Hello " + name;
+  }
+}
+
+@Path("/hello")
+class HelloRestService {
+  @Inject
+  private helloService: HelloService;
+
+  @Path(":name")
+  @GET
+  sayHello( @PathParam('name') name: string): string {
+    return this.sayHello(name);
+  }
+}
+```
