proto-forge v1.1.0

proto-forge

Small library for instrumenting Object.defineProperties and creating reusable prototypes.

What does it mean? proto-forge aim is to provide markup convention for objects, which will create instrumentation for Object.defineProperty. This includes:

• creating getters/setters form set/get methods;
• setting enumerated property depending on presence of _ sign;

Installation

npm install proto-forge

Usage

Basic example

proto.forge({
	_id: 1
	basePath: null,
	assign() {
	},
	getPath() {
	},
	getParent() {
	},
	setParent(value) {
	}
});

will create object:

{
	basePath: null,
	assign: [Function],
	path: [Getter],
	parent: [Getter/Setter],
}

As you can see, all methods beginning with set or get where used to create getter/setter properties. For example getParent and setParent where used to create parent property. Source methods became not enumerable, however they are still accessible. Another example is _id property. Because it starts with underscore it became not enumerable. This way you can control how destination object is created.
