@autobind

Forces invocations of this function to always have this refer to the class instance, even if the function is passed around or would otherwise lose its this context. e.g. var fn = context.method;

import { autobind } from 'core-decorators';

class Person {
  @autobind
  getPerson() {
  	return this;
  }
}

let person = new Person();
let getPerson = person.getPerson;

getPerson() === person;
// true

@readonly

Marks a property or method as not being writable.

import { readonly } from 'core-decorators';

class Meal {
  @readonly
  entree = 'steak';
}

var dinner = new Meal();
dinner.entree = 'salmon';
// Cannot assign to read only property 'entree' of [object Object]

@override

Checks that the marked method indeed overrides a function with the same signature somewhere on the prototype chain.

Works with methods and getters/setters. Will ensure name, parameter count, as well as descriptor type (accessor/data). Provides a suggestion if it finds a method with a similar signature, including slight misspellings.

import { override } from 'core-decorators';

class Parent {
  speak(first, second) {}
}

class Child extends Parent {
  @override
  speak() {}
  // SyntaxError: Child#speak() does not properly override Parent#speak(first, second)
}

// or

class Child extends Parent {
  @override
  speaks() {}
  // SyntaxError: No descriptor matching Child#speaks() was found on the prototype chain.
  //
  //   Did you mean "speak"?
}

@deprecate

Calls console.warn() with a deprecation message. Provide a custom message to override the default one. You can also provide an options hash with a url, for further reading.

import { deprecate } from 'core-decorators';

class Person {
  @deprecate
  facepalm() {}

  @deprecate('We stopped facepalming')
  facepalmHard() {}

  @deprecate('We stopped facepalming', { url: 'http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/facepalm' })
  facepalmHarder() {}
}

let person = new Person();

person.facepalm();
// DEPRECATION Person#facepalm: This function will be removed in future versions.

person.facepalmHard();
// DEPRECATION Person#facepalmHard: We stopped facepalming

person.facepalmHarder();
// DEPRECATION Person#facepalmHarder: We stopped facepalming
//
//     See http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/facepalm for more details.
