15 | ## Usage
|
---|
16 |
|
---|
17 | ```js
|
---|
18 | var isDataDesc = require('is-data-descriptor');
|
---|
19 | ```
|
---|
20 |
|
---|
21 | ## Examples
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | `true` when the descriptor has valid properties with valid values.
|
---|
24 |
|
---|
25 | ```js
|
---|
26 | // `value` can be anything
|
---|
27 | isDataDesc({value: 'foo'})
|
---|
28 | isDataDesc({value: function() {}})
|
---|
29 | isDataDesc({value: true})
|
---|
30 | //=> true
|
---|
31 | ```
|
---|
32 |
|
---|
33 | `false` when not an object
|
---|
34 |
|
---|
35 | ```js
|
---|
36 | isDataDesc('a')
|
---|
37 | //=> false
|
---|
38 | isDataDesc(null)
|
---|
39 | //=> false
|
---|
40 | isDataDesc([])
|
---|
41 | //=> false
|
---|
42 | ```
|
---|
43 |
|
---|
44 | `false` when the object has invalid properties
|
---|
45 |
|
---|
46 | ```js
|
---|
47 | isDataDesc({value: 'foo', bar: 'baz'})
|
---|
48 | //=> false
|
---|
49 | isDataDesc({value: 'foo', bar: 'baz'})
|
---|
50 | //=> false
|
---|
51 | isDataDesc({value: 'foo', get: function(){}})
|
---|
52 | //=> false
|
---|
53 | isDataDesc({get: function(){}, value: 'foo'})
|
---|
54 | //=> false
|
---|
55 | ```
|
---|
56 |
|
---|
57 | `false` when a value is not the correct type
|
---|
58 |
|
---|
59 | ```js
|
---|
60 | isDataDesc({value: 'foo', enumerable: 'foo'})
|
---|
61 | //=> false
|
---|
62 | isDataDesc({value: 'foo', configurable: 'foo'})
|
---|
63 | //=> false
|
---|
64 | isDataDesc({value: 'foo', writable: 'foo'})
|
---|
65 | //=> false
|
---|
66 | ```
|
---|
67 |
|
---|
68 | ## Valid properties
|
---|
69 |
|
---|
70 | The only valid data descriptor properties are the following:
|
---|
71 |
|
---|
72 | * `configurable` (required)
|
---|
73 | * `enumerable` (required)
|
---|
74 | * `value` (optional)
|
---|
75 | * `writable` (optional)
|
---|
76 |
|
---|
77 | To be a valid data descriptor, either `value` or `writable` must be defined.
|
---|
78 |
|
---|
79 | **Invalid properties**
|
---|
80 |
|
---|
81 | A descriptor may have additional _invalid_ properties (an error will **not** be thrown).
|
---|
82 |
|
---|
83 | ```js
|
---|
84 | var foo = {};
|
---|
85 |
|
---|
86 | Object.defineProperty(foo, 'bar', {
|
---|
87 | enumerable: true,
|
---|
88 | whatever: 'blah', // invalid, but doesn't cause an error
|
---|
89 | get: function() {
|
---|
90 | return 'baz';
|
---|
91 | }
|
---|
92 | });
|
---|
93 |
|
---|
94 | console.log(foo.bar);
|
---|
95 | //=> 'baz'
|
---|
96 | ```
