How to create and load services via autowiring

There are times when we only care about quick and dirty prototyping for a service. We don't know the service details and it is an ongoing job, which means that the service parameters might change over and over again.

It makes the service definition a little tricky. Imagine how many times we would have to refactor the service until we reach the final structure. Luckily, we can create a service with minimal configuration. Introduced in Symfony 2.8, with autowiring, we can ignore details of the service definition and let Symfony find and handle any dependency for us:

services:
   som_service:
      class: some_class
      autowire:true
