Configuring Ninject for a console application and leveraging the existing repository for my MVC application

Viewed 9823

I have a MVC 3 solution configured with Ninject using a repository pattern. Some of my bindings include:

kernel.Bind<IDatabaseFactory>().To<DatabaseFactory>().InRequestScope();
kernel.Bind<IUnitOfWork>().To<UnitOfWork>().InRequestScope();
kernel.Bind<IMyRepository>().To<MyRepository>().InRequestScope();
kernel.Bind<IMyService>().To<MyService>().InRequestScope();
kernel.Bind<ILogging>().To<Logging>().InSingletonScope();

I also added a console application to my solution and I want to leverage the same repository and services. My Ninject configuration for the console application looks like:

kernel.Bind<IDatabaseFactory>().To<DatabaseFactory>().InSingletonScope();
kernel.Bind<IUnitOfWork>().To<UnitOfWork>().InSingletonScope();
kernel.Bind<IMyRepository>().To<MyRepository>().InSingletonScope();
kernel.Bind<IMyService>().To<MyService>().InSingletonScope();
kernel.Bind<ILogging>().To<Logging>().InSingletonScope();

My console code looks like:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    IKernel kernel = new StandardKernel(new IoCMapper());

    var service = kernel.Get<IMyService>();
    var logger = kernel.Get<ILogging>();

    ... do some processing here
}

This works just fine but I want t be sure that I am configuring Ninject correctly for a console application. Is it correct to use InSingletonScope() for all my bindings in my console application? Should I be configuring it differently?
