d

Property descriptor factory

Originally derived from d package.

Defining properties with descriptors is very verbose:

javascript var Account = function () {}; Object.defineProperties(Account.prototype, { deposit: { value: function () { /* ... */ }, configurable: true, enumerable: false, writable: true }, withdraw: { value: function () { /* ... */ }, configurable: true, enumerable: false, writable: true }, balance: { get: function () { /* ... */ }, configurable: true, enumerable: false } });

D cuts that to:

```javascript var d = require("d");

var Account = function () {}; Object.defineProperties(Account.prototype, { deposit: d(function () { / ... / }), withdraw: d(function () { / ... / }), balance: d.gs(function () { / ... / }) }); ```

By default, created descriptor follow characteristics of native ES5 properties, and defines values as:

javascript { configurable: true, enumerable: false, writable: true }

You can overwrite it by preceding value argument with instruction:

```javascript d("c", value); // { configurable: true, enumerable: false, writable: false } d("ce", value); // { configurable: true, enumerable: true, writable: false } d("e", value); // { configurable: false, enumerable: true, writable: false }

// Same way for get/set: d.gs("e", value); // { configurable: false, enumerable: true } ```

Installation

$ npm install d

To port it to Browser or any other (non CJS) environment, use your favorite CJS bundler. No favorite yet? Try: Browserify, Webmake or Webpack

Other utilities

autoBind(obj, props) (d/auto-bind)

Define methods which will be automatically bound to its instances

```javascript var d = require('d'); var autoBind = require('d/auto-bind');

var Foo = function () { this._count = 0; }; Object.defineProperties(Foo.prototype, autoBind({ increment: d(function () { ++this._count; }); }));

var foo = new Foo();

// Increment foo counter on each domEl click domEl.addEventListener('click', foo.increment, false); ```

lazy(obj, props) (d/lazy)

Define lazy properties, which will be resolved on first access

```javascript var d = require("d"); var lazy = require("d/lazy");

var Foo = function () {}; Object.defineProperties(Foo.prototype, lazy({ items: d(function () { return []; }) }));

var foo = new Foo(); foo.items.push(1, 2); // foo.items array created and defined directly on foo ```
