JS non-enumerable function
I don't get it, why can't you access it as a method?
var foo = {};
Object.defineProperty(foo, 'bar', {
enumerable: false,
value: function () {console.log('foo.bar\'d!');}
});
foo.bar(); // foo.bar'd!
If you wanted it on the prototype, it's as easy as
Object.defineProperty(foo.prototype, /* etc */);
or even directly in Object.create
foo.prototype = Object.create(null, {
'bar': {value: function () {/* ... */}}
});
However, unless you're creating instances of foo
, it won't show up if you try to foo.bar
, and only be visible as foo.prototype.bar
.
If foo
has it's own prototype (e.g. foo = Object.create({})
), you can get it with Object.getPrototypeOf
, add the property to that and then foo.bar
would work even if it is not an instance.
var proto = Object.getPrototypeOf(foo); // get prototype
Object.defineProperty(proto, /* etc */);
You can see visibility of enumerable vs non-enumerable properties here.
