class-decorators

Provides mixin support through es2015 decorators. @mixin will assign mixins in the order they are provided from left to right.

Installation

npm i class-decorators -S

Usage

// myMixins.js
import request from 'request';
 
export const Readable = {
  get() {
    return request.get();
  },
  head() {
    return request.head();
  }
};
 
export const Writeable = {
  post() {
    return request.post();
  },
  put() {
    return request.put();
  },
  patch() {
    return request.patch;
  },
  delete() {
    return request.delete();
  }
};
// api.js
import {mixin, override} from 'class-decorators';
import {Readable, Writable} from './myMixins';
 
@mixin(Readable, Writable)
class Api {
  get() {
    return 'this will be overwritten by Readable.get';
  }
  
  @override
  post() {
    return 'this will not be overwritten due to @override';
  }
}

React Component example using @cascade

react-class-mixin will automatically decorate the following methods with @cascade.

render
getInitialState
getDefaultProps
propTypes
mixins
statics
displayName
componentWillMount
componentDidMount
componentWillReceiveProps
shouldComponentUpdate
componentWillUpdate
componentDidUpdate
componentWillUnmount

Using decorators to add mixins will cause your component lifecycle methods to be overwritten by methods used in the mixins. Decorating your methods with @cascade will call the mixin functions first in the order they were applied. Mixins are not required to be decorated with @cascade since decorating the component method will apply to all methods. Returns from all methods will be returned in an array in the order the methods were called.

import {Component} from 'react';
 
const MyComponentMixin = {
  componentDidMount() {
    ...
    // This function will be called just before the `componentDidMount`
    // method on the class this mixin is applied to
  }
}
 
const MyOtherComponentMixin = {
  componentDidMount() {
    ...
  }
}
 
@mixin(MyComponentMixin, MyOtherComponentMixin)
class MyComponent extends Component {
  @cascade
  componentDidMount() {
    // When this method is called, the order of function calls will be 
    // 1) MyComponentMixin.componentDidMount()
    // 2) MyOtherComponentMixin.componentDidMount()
    // 3) MyComponent.componentDidMount()
  }
}
