Usage

The package exposes 5 methods :

• before
  Allow to run an advice before a chosen method.

  const x = new MyClass(); // assuming MyClass has a method doIt();
  before(x, 'doIt', () => {
  	console.log('this runs before doIt()');
  });

• after
  Allow to run an advice after a chosen method, regardless the success or the failure of that method

  const x = new MyClass(); // assuming MyClass has a method doIt();
  after(x, 'doIt', () => {
  	console.log('this runs after doIt()');
  });

• afterReturn
  Allow to run an advice after a chosen method, if and only if the method successfully returns

  const x = new MyClass(); // assuming MyClass has a method doIt();
  afterReturn(x, 'doIt', () => {
  	console.log('doIt() method passed successfully');
  });

• afterThrow
  Allow to run an advice after a chosen method, if and only if the method throw an error

  const x = new MyClass(); // assuming MyClass has a method doIt();
  afterThrow(x, 'doIt', () => {
  	console.log('doIt() method thrown an error');
  });

• around
  Allow to run an advice before and after a chosen method. This is the most powerful kind of advice as it can controls whether or not to run the original method as well as the arguments given to it.

  const x = new MyClass(); // assuming MyClass has a method doIt();
  around(x, 'doIt', (nextAdvice) => {
  	console.log('this runs before doIt()');
  	nextAdvice(); // next advice might be another around or the doIt() method itself
  	console.log('this runs after doIt()');
  });

  // with arguments:
  const x = new MyClass(); // assuming MyClass has a method doIt(value);
  around(x, 'doIt', (value, nextAdvice) => {
  	console.log('this runs before doIt()');
  	nextAdvice(value); // next advice might be another around or the doIt() method itself
  	console.log('this runs after doIt()');
  });
