angular-package

The angular-package supports the development process of angular-based applications in varied ways through the thoughtful, reusable, easy-to-use small pieces of code called packages.

angular-package/property

Features to handle properties.

export {
  // Class.
  Property,
  WrapProperty,
} from './lib';

export {
  // Class.
  Descriptor,
  Descriptors,
  // Interface.
  AccessorDescriptor,
  CommonDescriptor,
  DataDescriptor,
  // Type.
  ThisAccessorDescriptor,
} from './descriptor';

export { GetterCallback, SetterCallback } from './type';

How angular-package understands

Checks

Is to check the provided value to be the same as expected.

Type guard (constrain)

Constrains the parameter type to not let input unexpected value in the code editor.

Guards

Is a combination of both above, constrains the type of the parameter in the code editor, and checks its argument.

Sets

Sets the provided value in the object.

Defines

Returns defined value from the method, instead of storing it in the object.

Skeleton

This package was generated by the skeleton workspace with Angular CLI version 14.2.0.

Copy this package to the packages/property folder of the skeleton workspace then run the commands below.

Code scaffolding

Note: Don't forget to add --project property or else it will be added to the default project in your angular.json file.

Build

Run ng build property to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory.

Publishing

After building your library with ng build property, go to the dist folder cd dist/property and run npm publish.

Running unit tests

Run ng test property to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Further help

To get more help on the Angular CLI use ng help or go check out the Angular CLI Overview and Command Reference page.

Installation

Install @angular-package/property package with command:

npm i --save @angular-package/property

Callback

Wrapper for the ResultCallback type function to throw an Error with the specified message on the specified false or true state.

export const errorCallback: ErrorCallback  = (
  message: string,
  on: boolean = false
): ResultCallback => {
  return (result: boolean, value: any): boolean => {
    if (result === on) {
      throw new Error(
        `${message}, got value ${
          typeof value === 'object' ? JSON.stringify(value) : value
        }`
      );
    }
    return result;
  };
};

Package

Descriptor package

Descriptor features to import.

// Class.
export {
  Descriptor,
  Descriptors
} from './lib';

// Interface.
export {
  AccessorDescriptor,
  CommonDescriptor,
  DataDescriptor
} from './interface';

// Type.
export {
  ThisAccessorDescriptor
} from './type';

`Descriptor`

Handles object property descriptor.

Features:

Strictly defines accessor and data descriptor with the defineAccessor() and defineData() static methods.
Strictly sets, and stores accessor and data descriptor with the Descriptor instance respectively set.accessor() and set.data() methods of the instance.
Get privately stored accessor descriptor defined by the set.accessor() method by using get.accessor property of the instance.
Get privately stored data descriptor defined by the set.data() method by using get.data property of the instance.

Strictly means, it guards provided descriptor by checking it against its unique keys and by picking only properties that belong to the appropriate descriptor.

Descriptor<Value, Obj = any> { ... }

Descriptor static methods

Descriptor interface

AccessorDescriptor

Descriptor with its unique optional get() and set() functions, of the Value type. For the accessor descriptor with also the object type, please use the type ThisAccessorDescriptor<Value, Obj>. More about property descriptors here.

interface AccessorDescriptor<Value> extends CommonDescriptor {
  get?: () => Value;
  set?: (value: Value) => void;
}

CommonDescriptor

Common keys configurable and enumerable of a boolean type for accessor and data descriptor, picked from the default PropertyDescriptor. More about property descriptors here.

interface CommonDescriptor
  extends Pick<PropertyDescriptor, 'configurable' | 'enumerable'> {}

DataDescriptor

Descriptor with its unique optional keys, writable of a boolean type and value of a generic Value type. More about property descriptors here.

interface DataDescriptor<Value> extends CommonDescriptor {
  writable?: boolean;
  value?: Value;
}

Descriptor type

ThisAccessorDescriptor

AccessorDescriptor interface as a type cause of ease of use this of an Obj type in the get() and set() functions. More about property descriptors here.

type ThisAccessorDescriptor<Value, Obj> = AccessorDescriptor<Value> &
  ThisType<Obj>;

Versioning

Semantic Versioning 2.0.0

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,
MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible manner, and
PATCH version when you make backwards-compatible bug fixes.

Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format.

FAQ How should I deal with revisions in the 0.y.z initial development phase?

The simplest thing to do is start your initial development release at 0.1.0 and then increment the minor version for each subsequent release.

How do I know when to release 1.0.0?

If your software is being used in production, it should probably already be 1.0.0. If you have a stable API on which users have come to depend, you should be 1.0.0. If you’re worrying a lot about backwards compatibility, you should probably already be 1.0.0.
