Cla6 Hidden

This is an addon plugin for Cla6.js class system library. It provides the ability to hide some of the instance's properties and therefore make some of your api's logic private without exposing it. Although originally designed for use with Node.js and installable via npm install cla6-hidden, it can also be used directly in the browser.

Cla6 Hidden is also installable via:

• bower: bower install cla6-hidden

Basic Examples

var Klass = Cla6('Klass', {
  constructor: function() {
    this._hidden = 'hidden';
  },

  get hidden() {
    return this._hidden;
  }
});

var obj = new Klass();
console.log(obj.hidden); // hidden
console.log(obj._hidden); // undefined

You may also define hidden properties on the prototype. Don't worry, Cla6-Hidden also knows how to handle the inheritance process:

var Parent = Cla6('Parent', {
  _foo: 'parent',
  _bar: 'parent'
});

var Child = Cla6('Child').extend(Parent, {
  _bar: 'child',

  log: function() {
    console.log(this._foo); // parent
    console.log(this._bar); // child
  }
});

obj = new Child();
obj.log();

How To Use

var Cla6 = require('cla6');
var Cla6Hidden = require('cla6-hidden');

Cla6.use(Cla6Hidden);
