ezp

Easy Proxy for fluent APIs.

Use

const ezp = require('ezp');

const P = ezp({
    get: function(props) {
        // Called by:
        //      P.foo.bar.baz.$
        // props:
        //      ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
    },
    set: function(props, value) {
        // Called by:
        //      P.foo.bar.baz = 1337
        // props:
        //      ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
        // value:
        //      1337
    },
    delete: function(props) {
        // Called by:
        //      delete P.foo.bar.baz;
        // props:
        //      ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
    },
    has: function(props) {
        // Called by:
        //      'qux' in P.foo.bar.baz
        // props:
        //      ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
        // value:
        //      'qux'
    },
    apply: function(props, args) {
        // Called by:
        //      P.foo.bar.baz(1337, 'qux')
        // props:
        //      ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
        // args:
        //      [1337, 'qux']
    },
}, '$');

ezp receives a handler object and an optional escape property, and returns a fluent proxy.

The handler object supports the following fluent traps: get, set, delete, in and apply, which are triggered as illustrated in the example above.

Note that to use the get trap, an escape property must be provided. This value will then be magical, and be used to trigger the get trap instead of navigating one level deeper within the proxy itself.

NOTE: The proxy is created as a virtual object, and interacting with the underlying target without setting the appropriate traps may result in unspecified behaviour. Use only the proxy in ways which are handled by the traps provided.

Install

with npm do:

npm install ezp
