Is there a best-practice or common way in JavaScript to have class members as event handlers?
Consider the following simple example:
You can use fat-arrow syntax, which binds to the lexical scope of the function
function doIt() {
this.f = () => {
console.log("f called ok");
this.g();
}
this.g = () => {
console.log("g called ok");
}
}
After that you can try
var n = new doIt();
setTimeout(n.f,1000);
You can try it on babel or if your browser supports ES6 on jsFiddle.
Unfortunately the ES6 Class -syntax does not seem to allow creating function lexically binded to this. I personally think it might as well do that. EDIT: There seems to be experimental ES7 feature to allow it.
