Method auto-bind for ES6 (ES2015) classes
This package provides a single function, autobind
, for use within a constructor to bind all methods to the instance itself.
For example, this allows us to pass a method to an event handler element.addEventListener('click', this.onClick)
and be sure the onClick
method will always be called with the right context.
Note: This has some specific logic for React, but could be used in any project.
Usage:
; Component { super...arguments; ; } { return <button onClick=thisonClick>Click Me</button>; } { console; }
Advanced Usage:
If your component will possibly be subclassed (you really should not do this, but some third-party libraries like react-css-modules do so) then you will need to specify which prototype will be the source of methods that are to be automatically bound.
; Component { super...arguments; ; // Note the second parameter. } { /* ... */ } /* This is probably a very bad idea. */
