API

(object, method, ...)

Adds will and did methods to the object. Both will and did are lazy methods. So to use auto hooks you still should run it as:

hooks(this, 'method', 'anotherMethod');

will(method, hook)

Adds will (runs before) hook function to the method only if method exists and it is a function. hook function will receive all arguments as the original method. If hook function is async it should return a Promise.

If object has will<Method> it will be run before all other hooks

did(method, hook)

Adds did (runs after) hook function to the method only if method exists and it is a function. hook function will receive a result of the original method or previous hook and should return result or Promise.

If object has did<Method> it will be run after all other hooks
