Tests whether a value
has in its prototype chain a specified constructor
as a prototype
property.
var inherit = require( '@stdlib/utils-inherit' );
function Foo() {
return this;
}
function Bar() {
return this;
}
inherit( Bar, Foo );
var bar = new Bar();
var bool = instanceOf( bar, Foo );
// returns true
The function throws a TypeError
if provided a constructor
argument which is not callable.
var bool = instanceOf( {}, null );
// throws <TypeError>
While the prototype of an object
created using object literal notion is undefined
, the function returns true
when provided an object
literal and the Object
constructor. This maintains consistent behavior with the instanceof
operator.
var bool = ( {} instanceof Object );
// returns true
bool = instanceOf( {}, Object );
// returns true
var Number = require( '@stdlib/number-ctor' );
var instanceOf = require( '@stdlib/assert-instance-of' );
var bool = instanceOf( [], Array );
// returns true
bool = instanceOf( [], Object );
// returns true
bool = instanceOf( {}, Object );
// returns true
bool = instanceOf( new Date(), Date );
// returns true
bool = instanceOf( /.*/, RegExp );
// returns true
bool = instanceOf( instanceOf, Function );
// returns true
bool = instanceOf( null, Object );
// returns false
bool = instanceOf( 5, Number );
// returns false
bool = instanceOf( '5', String );
// returns false
bool = instanceOf( void 0, Object );
// returns false
bool = instanceOf( {}, Array );
// returns false
bool = instanceOf( {}, Function );
// returns false
