Private setter typescript?

Question

Is there a way to have a private setter for a property in TypeScript?

class Test
{
    private _prop: string;
    public get prop() : string
    {
        re         


        

Answer 1

I also hope we could have public getter and private setter. Until we do, another way to handle this is to add additional private getter and setter:

class Test {
  _prop: string;
  public get prop(): string {
    return this._prop;
  }

  private get internalProp(): string {
    return this.prop;
  }

  private set internalProp(value: string) {
    this._prop = value;
  }

  private addToProp(valueToAdd: string): void {
    this.internalProp += valueToAdd;
  }
}
