ES6 getter/setter with arrow function

Question

I\'m using babel6 and for my pet project I\'m creating a wrapper for XMLHttpRequest, for the methods I can use:

open = (method, url, something) => {
  ret         


        

Answer 1

According to the ES2015 grammar, a property on an object literal can only be one of four things:

PropertyDefinition:

• IdentifierReference
• PropertyName : AssignmentExpression
• MethodDefinition

The only one of these type that allows a leading get is MethodDefinition:

MethodDefinition :

• PropertyName ( StrictFormalParameters ) { FunctionBody }
• GeneratorMethod
• get PropertyName ( ) { FunctionBody }
• set PropertyName ( PropertySetParameterList ) { FunctionBody }

As you can see, the get form follows a very limited grammar that must be of the form

get NAME () { BODY }

The grammar does not allow functions of the form get NAME = ....
