nodejs classes code example

Example 1: javascript classes

//use classes by initiating one like so:
class MyClass {
	constructor(FirstProperty, SecondProperty, etcetera) {
    	//The constructor function is called with the new class 
      	//instance's parameters, so this will be called like so:
      	//var classExample = new MyClass("FirstProperty's Value", ...)
      this.firstProperty = FirstProperty;
      this.secondProperty = SecondProperty;
    }
  //creat methods just like functions:
  method(Parameters) {
  	//Code Here
  }
  //getters are properties that are calculated when called, versus fixed
  //variables, but still have no parenthesis when used
  get getBothValues() 
  {
  	return [firstProperty, secondProperty];
  }
}
//Note: this is all syntax sugar reducing the boilerplate versus a
// function-defined object.

Example 2: node js class

//Node js class: Here a quick code example

// Basic class
class Rectangle {
  
  // Constructor
  constructor(height, width) {
    // Member variables
    this.height = height;
    this.width = width;

    // Access static member variable
    Rectangle.count++;
  }
  
  // Getter
  get area() {
    return this.calcArea();
  }
  
  // Method
  calcArea() {
    return this.height * this.width;
  }

  // Static method
  static calcArea(width, height) {
    return width * height;
  }
}

// Static member variable
Rectangle.count = 0;


// Class instantiation
const square = new Rectangle(10, 10);

// Access member variable
console.log(square.height, square.width); // 10 10

// Call getter
console.log(square.area);	// 100

// Call method
console.log(square.calcArea()); // 100


// Access static member variable
console.log(Rectangle.count); // 1

// Call static method
console.log(Rectangle.calcArea(15, 15));  // 225

Example 3: es6 class example

class Polygon { 
   constructor(height, width) { 
      this.height = height; 
      this.width = width; 
   } 
}

Example 4: class declaration in javascript

class NameOfClass {
//class declaration first letter should be capital it's a convention
  obj="text";
  obj2="some other text";
}
//always call class with "new" key word
console.log(new NameOfClass);
