Autofac, multiple interfaces to same implementation per HTTP request in ASP.NET MVC - asp.net-mvc

Question

My DbContext implementation implements two interfaces.
I'm trying to follow best practices and instantiate one DbContext instance per HTTP request.
However, I have a controller action where I need to instantiate two classes, each of which takes different interface in constructor.
I am worried if in that scenario, for that specific action, two DbContext instances would be raised.
I've setup my ContainerBuilder like this:
builder.RegisterType<MyDbContext>()
.As<IWorkflowPersistenceStore>()
.As<IDocumentPersistenceStore>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.RegisterType<WorkflowManager>().As<IWorkflowManager>().InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.RegisterType<DocumentManager>().As<IDocumentManager>().InstancePerHttpRequest();
public class OperationController : Controller
{
private IWorkflowManager _workflowManager;
private IDocumentManager _documentManager;
public OperationController(IWorkflowManager workflowManager, IDocumentManager documentManager)
{
_workflowManager = workflowManager;
_documentManager = documentManager;
}
public ActionResult SaveWorkflowDocument(...)
{
// will my managers point to same DbContext?
_workflowManager.DoSomething(...);
_documentManager.DoSomethingElse(...);
return View();
}
}
public class WorkflowManager : IWorkflowManager
{
private IWorkflowPersistenceStore _store;
public WorkflowManager(IWorkflowPersistenceStore store)
{
_store = store;
}
}
public class DocumentManager : IDocumentManager
{
private IDocumentPersistenceStore _store;
public DocumentManager (IDocumentPersistenceStore store)
{
_store = store;
}
}
Is this good enough?
Do I have to add .SingleInstance()? I'm worried that it might create singleton for whole application.

I think you're ok with what you have. Test passes:
using Autofac;
using NUnit.Framework;
namespace AutofacTest
{
[TestFixture]
public class ScopeTest
{
[Test]
public void Test()
{
var builder = new ContainerBuilder();
builder.RegisterType<Component>()
.As<IServiceA>()
.As<IServiceB>()
.InstancePerLifetimeScope();
using (var container = builder.Build())
using (var scope = container.BeginLifetimeScope())
{
var a = scope.Resolve<IServiceA>();
var b = scope.Resolve<IServiceB>();
Assert.AreEqual(a, b);
}
}
}
public interface IServiceA { }
public interface IServiceB { }
public class Component : IServiceA, IServiceB { }
}
