private-access v1.0.1

private-access

Automatic private symbol creator.

Installation

npm install --save private-access

Usage

NOTE This only works in ES6-compatible environments.

Include in any module that you want to have private access variables. Doing a one-line include / call can reduce the setup to almost none:

const _ = require('private-access').create();

Once a private access variable has been created, you can just use the dot-operator to create new Symbols:

person.js

// Try in the Node.JS REPL! ( Node v6.x.x )

const _ = require('private-access').create();

class Person {
	
	constructor( name, ssn ) {
		this.name = name;
		this[_.ssn] = ssn;
	}
	
	speak() {
		console.log('I like food!');
	}
	
	[_.whisper]() {
		console.log('...waaayyy too much.');
	}
}

index.js

// No access to `ssn` value or `whisper` method:

const Person = require('./person');
const person = new Person('John Doe', '123-12-1234');

console.log(`Hi, my name is ${person.name}`);

person.speak();
