Proxify | a deep (nested) proxy.

Read a longer explanation on https://jochem.quora.com/ES6-function-Proxify-a-deep-nested-Proxy

So what is a deep proxy for? Normally in every day life you create an Object like this

var obj = new Object()

or like that.

var obj = {}

You then add a property to obj by doing this

obj.truth = 'Jochem is awesome.'

but you can not do this

obj.properties.colors.primary.white = '#FFFFFF'

Error: cannot read propery properties of undefined.

The following method proxify solves this problem. It implements a ‘deep proxy’ (nested proxy) that

• recursively creates and returns a new Proxy for each undefined property
• allows but does not require a handler (defaults to normal behavior)
• can be loaded as Node module using require

Install

npm install proxify

Use:

var DeepProxy = require('proxify.js') 
var so = new DeepProxy()
 
so.you.see.that.jochem.stoel = 'awesome' // it works!

Until next time.
