## Installation

```sh
npm install proxy-disposable
```

## Usage

Create an object with a `dispose` method. Then wrap it using the [`d`](#d) function. For example,
the following script:

```js
import { d } from 'proxy-disposable'

using disposable = d({
  name: 'object',

  dispose() {
    console.log('Disposed', this.name)
  }
})

disposable.name = 'disposable'
```

Yields:

```plaintext
Disposed disposable
```

## API

### `d`

Wrap an object with a `dispose` method as an ES6
[disposable](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Symbol/dispose).

#### Arguments

- `disposable` (`Object`) — The disposable to wrap.

#### Returns

The input disposable as an ES6 disposable.

## Why

The `dispose` method is commonly used in various projects, such as
[language server](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-languageserver-node) related projects and
[Monaco editor](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor).

This package makes these nicer to work with in contexts where you want to quickly create an object,
and clean up afterwards. A typical use case is tests.

## Compatibility

This project is compatible with Node.js 22 or greater.
