Is there an equivalent of the __noSuchMethod__ feature for properties, or a way to implement it in JS?
There is a noSuchMethod feature in some javascript implementations (Rhino, SpiderMonkey)
proxy = {
__noSuchMethod__: function(methodName, args){
retu开发者_运维知识库rn "The " + methodName + " method isn't implemented yet. HINT: I accept cash and beer bribes" ;
},
realMethod: function(){
return "implemented" ;
}
}
js> proxy.realMethod()
implemented
js> proxy.newIPod()
The newIPod method isn't implemented yet. HINT: I accept cash and beer bribes
js>
I was wondering, is there was a way to do something similar for properties? I'd like to write proxy classes that can dispatch on properties as well as methods.
UPDATE: ECMAScript 6 Proxies are widely supported now. Basically, if you don't need to support IE11, you can use them.
Proxy objects allow you to define custom behavior for fundamental operations, like property lookup, assignment, enumeration, function invocation, etc.
Emulating __noSuchMethod__ with ES6 Proxies
By implementing traps on property access, you can emulate the behavior of the non-standard __noSuchMethod__
trap:
function enableNoSuchMethod(obj) {
return new Proxy(obj, {
get(target, p) {
if (p in target) {
return target[p];
} else if (typeof target.__noSuchMethod__ == "function") {
return function(...args) {
return target.__noSuchMethod__.call(target, p, args);
};
}
}
});
}
// Example usage:
function Dummy() {
this.ownProp1 = "value1";
return enableNoSuchMethod(this);
}
Dummy.prototype.test = function() {
console.log("Test called");
};
Dummy.prototype.__noSuchMethod__ = function(name, args) {
console.log(`No such method ${name} called with ${args}`);
return;
};
var instance = new Dummy();
console.log(instance.ownProp1);
instance.test();
instance.someName(1, 2);
instance.xyz(3, 4);
instance.doesNotExist("a", "b");
Original 2010 answer
There is only one existing thing at the moment that can actually do what you want, but unfortunately is not widely implemented:
- ECMAScript Harmony Proxies.
There are only two working implementations available at this time, in the latest Firefox 4 betas (it has been around since FF3.7 pre-releases) and in node-proxy for server-side JavaScript -Chrome and Safari are currently working on it-.
It is one of the early proposals for the next version of ECMAScript, it's an API that allows you to implement virtualized objects (proxies), where you can assign a variety of traps -callbacks- that are executed in different situations, you gain full control on what at this time -in ECMAScript 3/5- only host objects could do.
To build a proxy object, you have to use the Proxy.create
method, since you are interested in the set
and get
traps, I leave you a really simple example:
var p = Proxy.create({
get: function(proxy, name) { // intercepts property access
return 'Hello, '+ name;
},
set: function(proxy, name, value) { // intercepts property assignments
alert(name +'='+ value);
return true;
}
});
alert(p.world); // alerts 'Hello, world'
p.foo = 'bar'; // alerts foo=bar
Try it out here.
EDIT: The proxy API evolved, the Proxy.create
method was removed in favor of using the Proxy
constructor, see the above code updated to ES6:
const obj = {};
const p = new Proxy(obj, {
get(target, prop) { // intercepts property access
return 'Hello, '+ prop;
},
set(target, prop, value, receiver) { // intercepts property assignments
console.log(prop +'='+ value);
Reflect.set(target, prop, value, receiver)
return true;
}
});
console.log(p.world);
p.foo = 'bar';
The Proxy API is so new that isn't even documented on the Mozilla Developer Center, but as I said, a working implementation has been included since the Firefox 3.7 pre-releases.
The Proxy
object is available in the global scope and the create
method can take two arguments, a handler
object, which is simply an object that contains properties named as the traps you want to implement, and an optional proto
argument, that makes you able to specify an object that your proxy inherits from.
The traps available are:
// TrapName(args) Triggered by
// Fundamental traps
getOwnPropertyDescriptor(name): // Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(proxy, name)
getPropertyDescriptor(name): // Object.getPropertyDescriptor(proxy, name) [currently inexistent in ES5]
defineProperty(name, propertyDescriptor): // Object.defineProperty(proxy,name,pd)
getOwnPropertyNames(): // Object.getOwnPropertyNames(proxy)
getPropertyNames(): // Object.getPropertyNames(proxy)
delete(name): // delete proxy.name
enumerate(): // for (name in proxy)
fix(): // Object.{freeze|seal|preventExtensions}(proxy)
// Derived traps
has(name): // name in proxy
hasOwn(name): // ({}).hasOwnProperty.call(proxy, name)
get(receiver, name): // receiver.name
set(receiver, name, val): // receiver.name = val
keys(): // Object.keys(proxy)
The only resource I've seen, besides the proposal by itself, is the following tutorial:
- Harmony Proxies: Tutorial
Edit: More information is coming out, Brendan Eich recently gave a talk at the JSConf.eu Conference, you can find his slides here:
- Proxies are Awesome!
Here's how to get behaviour similar to __noSuchMethod__
First of all, here's a simple object with one method:
var myObject = {
existingMethod: function (param) {
console.log('existing method was called', param);
}
}
Now create a Proxy which will catch access to properties/method and add your existing object as a first parameter.
var myObjectProxy = new Proxy(myObject, {
get: function (func, name) {
// if property or method exists, return it
if( name in myObject ) {
return myObject[name];
}
// if it doesn't exists handle non-existing name however you choose
return function (args) {
console.log(name, args);
}
}
});
Now try it:
myObjectProxy.existingMethod('was called here');
myObjectProxy.nonExistingMethod('with a parameter');
Works in Chrome/Firefox/Opera. Doesn't work in IE(but already works in Edge). Also tested on mobile Chrome.
Creation of proxy can be automated and invisible i.e. if you use Factory pattern to build your objects. I did that to create workers which internal functions can be called directly from the main thread. Using workers can be now so simple thanks to this cool new feature called Proxy. The simplest worker implementation ever:
var testWorker = createWorker('pathTo/testWorker.js');
testWorker.aFunctionInsideWorker(params, function (result) {
console.log('results from worker: ', result);
});
I don't believe this type of metaprogramming is possible (yet) in javascript. Instead, try using the __noSuchMethod__
functionality to achieve the effect with property getters. Not cross-browser as it's a Mozilla extension.
var proxy = {
__noSuchMethod__: function(methodName, args) {
if(methodName.substr(0,3)=="get") {
var property = methodName.substr(3).toLowerCase();
if (property in this) {
return this[property];
}
}
}, color: "red"
};
alert(proxy.getColor());
You can use the Proxy class.
var myObj = {
someAttr: 'foo'
};
var p = new Proxy(myObj, {
get: function (target, propName) {
// target is the first argument passed into new Proxy,
// in this case target === myObj
return 'myObj with someAttr:"' + target.someAttr
+ '" had "' + propName
+ '" called on it.';
}
});
console.log(p.nonExsistantProperty);
// outputs:
// myObj with someAttr:"foo" had "nonExsistantProperty" called on it
There is __defineGetter__
, __defineSetter__
, __lookupGetter__
and __lookupSetter__
in addition to __noSuchMethod__
in SpiderMonkey.
Although this is an old question I was looking into this today. I wanted to be able to seamlessly integrate code from another context, maybe a different web page or server.
Its the sort of thing that breaks in the long run, but I think its an interesting concept none the less. These things can be useful for mashing code together quickly, ( which then exists for years, buried somewhere ).
var mod = modproxy();
mod.callme.first.now('hello', 'world');
mod.hello.world.plot = 555;
var v = mod.peter.piper.lucky.john.valueOf;
console.log(v);
mod.hello.world = function(v) {
alert(v);
return 777;
};
var v = mod.hello.world('funky...');
console.log(v);
var v = mod.hello.world.plot.valueOf;
console.log(v);
mod.www.a(99);
mod.www.b(98);
function modproxy(__notfound__) {
var mem = {};
return newproxy();
function getter(target, name, receiver, lname) {
if(name === 'valueOf') {
lname=lname.slice(1);
if(lname in mem) {
var v = mem[lname];
console.log(`rd : ${lname} - ${v}`);
return v;
}
console.log(`rd (not found) : ${lname}`);
return;
}
lname += '.'+name;
return newproxy(() => {}, lname);
} // getter
function setter(obj, prop, newval, lname) {
lname += '.' + prop;
lname = lname.slice(1);
console.log(`wt : ${lname} - ${newval}`);
mem[lname] = newval;
} // setter
function applyer(target, thisArg, args, lname) {
lname = lname.slice(1);
if(lname in mem) {
var v = mem[lname];
if(typeof v === 'function') {
console.log(`fn : ${lname} - [${args}]`);
return v.apply(thisArg,args);
}
return v;
}
console.log(`fn (not found): ${lname} - [${args}]`);
} // applyer
function newproxy(target, lname) {
target = target || {};
lname = lname || '';
return new Proxy(target, {
get: (target, name, receiver) => {
return getter(target, name, receiver, lname);
},
set: (target, name, newval) => {
return setter(target, name, newval, lname);
},
apply: (target, thisArg, args) => {
return applyer(target, thisArg, args, lname);
}
});
} //proxy
} //modproxy
I implemented a valueOf
step to read values, because it seems the property is 'get-ted' first.
I dont think its possible to tell at the time the property is 'get-ted' if its going to be invoked or read ( or required for further chaining ).
Its ok for single level properties. The property is either there or its not and either the required type or its not.
I'll work on it further, looking at promises for async/await routines, proxying existing objects and finer control of how properties are accessed when I am more familiar with how the code behaves and is best implemented.
I created a repository on GitHub: modproxy.js/README.md
CodePen: modproxy.js
My original question:
does javascript have an equivalent to the php magic class __call
