Expose private variables in Revealing Module Pattern

Question

I\'m trying to implement the Revealing Module Pattern but I\'m unable to expose a modified private property.

var myRevealingModule = (function(){

    var name =         


        

Answer 1

return {
    fullName: name,
    set: setName
};

That uses the values of name and setName. It does not create a reference to the variable. Effectively, name is copied.

You need to create a corresponding getName method, to take advantage of closures so that you can keep a reference to a variable.
