Currently in ES5 many of us are using the following pattern in frameworks to create classes and class variables, which is comfy:
In your example:
class MyClass {
const MY_CONST = 'string';
constructor(){
this.MY_CONST;
}
}
Because of MY_CONST is primitive https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Primitive we can just do:
class MyClass {
static get MY_CONST() {
return 'string';
}
get MY_CONST() {
return this.constructor.MY_CONST;
}
constructor() {
alert(this.MY_CONST === this.constructor.MY_CONST);
}
}
alert(MyClass.MY_CONST);
new MyClass
// alert: string ; true
But if MY_CONST
is reference type like static get MY_CONST() {return ['string'];}
alert output is string, false. In such case delete
operator can do the trick:
class MyClass {
static get MY_CONST() {
delete MyClass.MY_CONST;
return MyClass.MY_CONST = 'string';
}
get MY_CONST() {
return this.constructor.MY_CONST;
}
constructor() {
alert(this.MY_CONST === this.constructor.MY_CONST);
}
}
alert(MyClass.MY_CONST);
new MyClass
// alert: string ; true
And finally for class variable not const
:
class MyClass {
static get MY_CONST() {
delete MyClass.MY_CONST;
return MyClass.MY_CONST = 'string';
}
static set U_YIN_YANG(value) {
delete MyClass.MY_CONST;
MyClass.MY_CONST = value;
}
get MY_CONST() {
return this.constructor.MY_CONST;
}
set MY_CONST(value) {
this.constructor.MY_CONST = value;
}
constructor() {
alert(this.MY_CONST === this.constructor.MY_CONST);
}
}
alert(MyClass.MY_CONST);
new MyClass
// alert: string, true
MyClass.MY_CONST = ['string, 42']
alert(MyClass.MY_CONST);
new MyClass
// alert: string, 42 ; true
