+For other IoC providers that don't expose a `get(xxx)` function, you can create an IoC adapter using `IocAdapter` like so:
+
+```typescript
+// inversify-adapter.ts
+import { IoCAdapter } from 'routing-controllers'
+import { Container } from 'inversify'
+
+class InversifyAdapter implements IocAdapter {
+  constructor (

+    childContainer.bind(API_SYMBOLS.ClientIp).toConstantValue(action.context.ip)
+    return childContainer.resolve<T>(someClass)
+  } 
+}
+```
+
+And then tell Routing Controllers to use it:
+```typescript
+// Somewhere in your app startup
+import { useContainer } from 'routing-controllers'
+import { Container } from 'inversify'
+import { InversifyAdapter } from './inversify-adapter.ts'
+
+const container = new Container()

+useContainer(inversifyAdapter)
