I am currently experimenting with ECMA6 classes. My current class looks like the following
class Player {
constructor(id) {
this.id = id;
this.cash
Get & Set ES6 classes brings a new syntax for getters and setters on object properties. Get and set allows us to run code on the reading or writing of a property. ES5 had getters and setters as well but was not widely used because of older IE browsers. ES5 getters and setters did not have as nice of a syntax that ES6 brings us. So lets create a get and set for our name property.
Source: JavaScript ES6 Class Syntax
Example:
// ES6 get and set
class Person {
constructor(name) {
this._name = name;
}
get name() {
return this._name.toUpperCase();
}
set name(newName) {
this._name = newName; // validation could be checked here such as only allowing non numerical values
}
walk() {
console.log(this._name + ' is walking.');
}
}
let bob = new Person('Bob');
console.log(bob.name); // Outputs 'BOB'
