Object Class Initializer

Demo repo for using an anonymous class as an object initializer in TypeScript.

Motivation 💥

Create an object using an anonymous class to access the 'object' during its initialization. It's 6 lines of code, you might want to just copy paste this instead of installing this package, but who am I to judge?

Features 🔥

✅ Create an object instance using an anonymous class

✅ Access the object during its initialization

✅ Type the object using generics (type safety)

✅ No dependencies

Built With 🔧

• TypeScript

Installation 📦

pnpm i object-class-initializer
// or
yarn add object-class-initializer
// or
npm i object-class-initializer

Usage Example 🚀

import { createObject } from 'object-class-initializer';

const obj = createObject(
  class {
    a = 'foo';
    b = 'bar';
    c = this.a + this.b; // foobar
  }
);
// obj is now typed as { a: string, b: string, c: string }

// OR typed

type FooBar = {
  a: string;
  b: string;
  c: string;
};

const obj = createObject<FooBar>(
  class {
    a = 'foo';
    b = 'bar';
    c = this.a + this.b; // foobar
  }
);
// obj is now typed as FooBar
