cnd, intertype)GUY.${library_name}GUY.props.def_oneoff(), therefore dependencies (which are declared
peer dependencies) will only be require()d when needed.GUY.props: Common Operations on Object PropertiesGUY.props.def: ( target, name, cfg ) -> is just another name for Object.defineProperty().
GUY.props.hide: ( object, name, value ) -> is a shortcut to define a non-enumerable property as in
Object.defineProperty object, name, { enumerable: false, value, }.
GUY.props.xray: ( owner, host ) ->—A little bit the inverse to GUY.props.hide(), it will return an
object with all key/value pairs set that were found on owner after applying GUY.props.keys owner, { hidden: true, symbols: true, builtins: false, }. When host is set, that value will be used to store the
key/value pairs in, possibly overwriting existing keys. This method is useful for printing and debugging
objects with non-enumerable and/or symbol keys.
GUY.props.def_oneoff: ()
GUY.props.pick_with_fallback = ( d, fallback, keys... ) ->—Given an object d, a fallback value and
some keys, return an object that whose keys are the ones passed in, and whose values are either the
same as found in d, or fallback in case a key is missing in d or set to undefined. If d[ key ]
is null, it will be replaced by fallback. When no keys are given, an empty object will be returned.
GUY.props.nullify_undefined = ( d ) ->—Given an object d, return a copy of it where all undefined
values are replaced with null. In case d is null or undefined, an empty object will be returned.
GUY.props.omit_nullish = ( d ) ->—Given an object d, return a copy of it where all undefined and
null values are not set. In case d is null or undefined, an empty object will be returned.
GUY.props.crossmerge = ( cfg ) ->—Given an object keys and an object values, return a new object
whose keys come from the former and whose values come fom the latter. Should there be a key in keys that
is not set in values, an error will be thrown unless fallback has been set (to any value, inlcuding
undefined). This method calls GUY.props.keys() and will accept the cfg settings used there
(allow_any, symbols, builtins, hidden, depth).
GUY.props.has = ( x, key ) ->—Given any value x, return whether the value has a given property
(key). This is a safe version of Reflect.has() that never throws an error. Like direct property access
(using x.key or x[ 'key' ]) but unlike Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor() &c, GUY.props.has() looks
into the prototype chain; like Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(), it does not trigger property getters.
GUY.props.get = ( x, key, fallback ) ->—Given any value x, return the value of property named in
key. If that property is missing, throw an error, but when fallback has been given, return fallback
instead. Using GUY.props.get x, 'foo' is like saying x.foo or x[ 'foo' ] except that it doesn't
tolerate missing property keys; using it with a fallback as in GUY.props.get x, 'foo', undefined is like
saying x.foo or x[ 'foo' ] except that it also works for null and undefined.
Using GUY.props.has() and GUY.props.get() it is always possible to circumvent errors being thrown and
instead do value-based error handling (and raise one own's errors where seen fit). One pattern to do so is
to define a private Symbol instead of relying on undefined that could have been caused by all kinds of
circumstances. Here's a real-life example; it was created in a context where instances of the Strict_owner
class (for which see below) are prevalent (i.e. those objects will throw an error instead of returning
undefined as is the standard in JS). This function will return the length of a value x where that
attribute is present (as in strings and arrays), or else its size where that is present (as in sets and
maps), else it will return fallback where given, or resort to throwing an error:
notavalue = Symbol 'notavalue'
size_of = ( x, fallback = misfit ) ->
return R unless ( R = GUY.props.get x, 'length', notavalue ) is notavalue
return R unless ( R = GUY.props.get x, 'size', notavalue ) is notavalue
return fallback unless fallback is misfit
throw new Error "expected an object with `x.length` or `x.size`, got a #{typeof x} with neither"
GUY.props.resolve_property_chain = ( owner, property_chain ) ->—Given an owner value (typically an
object) and a property_chain as a list of names, repeatedly apply the names, first against the owner,
then the next name against that result and so on. This allows one to programmatically resolve chained
property access and to parametrize a literal owner.first.second.other.last as
GUY.props.resolve_property_chain owner, [ 'first', 'second', 'other', 'last', ].
GUY.props._shallow_copy = ( d ) ->—Given object d, return a shallow copy of it using the technique
demonstrated in the MDN documentation for
Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors():
( d ) -> Object.create ( Object.getPrototypeOf d ), ( Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors d ). This method
is not yet official part of the API because it may get an extension to work transparently with primitive
values.
GUY.props.keys()GUY.props.keys: () =>—Like Object.keys( t ), Reflect.ownKeys( t ) (which is equivalent to
Object.getOwnPropertyNames( target ).concat(Object.getOwnPropertySymbols( target ))) but more versatileGUY.props.keys() can retrieve or skip non-enumerable (a.k.a. 'hidden') keysGUY.props.keys() can retrieve only own keys (with { depth: 0 }) or descend into the prototype chain
for any number of steps: { depth: null, } (the default, equivalent to { depth: Infinity, }) will
descend into the prototype chain or e.g. { depth: 1, }GUY.props.keys() can retrieve string keys as well as symbol keys with { symbols: true, }GUY.props.keys() works for all JS values, including null and undefined when { allow_any: true, }
is set (the default)GUY.props.keys() can retrieve hidden (i.e. non-enumerable) keys with { hidden: true, }GUY.props.keys() can retrieve builtins with { builtins: true, }; observe that since builtins are
always hidden, { builtins: true, hidden: false, } makes no sense and causes a validation error.lst = [ 'x', ]
( Object.keys lst )
# [ '0', ]
( ( k for k of lst ) )
# [ '0', ]
( GUY.props.keys lst )
# [ '0', ]

# 'reduceRight', 'toLocaleString', 'toString', 'at', 'findLast', 'findLastIndex', Symbol.iterator,
# Symbol.unscopables, '__defineGetter__', '__defineSetter__', 'hasOwnProperty', '__lookupGetter__',
# '__lookupSetter__', 'isPrototypeOf', 'propertyIsEnumerable', 'valueOf', '__proto__' ]
( GUY.props.keys Array, { symbols: true, builtins: true, } )
# [ 'length', 'name', 'prototype', 'isArray', 'from', 'of', Symbol.species, 'arguments', 'caller',
# 'constructor', 'apply', 'bind', 'call', 'toString', Symbol.hasInstance, '__defineGetter__',
# '__defineSetter__', 'hasOwnProperty', '__lookupGetter__', '__lookupSetter__', 'isPrototypeOf',
# 'propertyIsEnumerable', 'valueOf', '__proto__', 'toLocaleString' ]
GUY.props.tree()GUY.props.tree() is the logical dual to GUY.props.keys(): instead of descending into the prototype
chain, tree() climbs through the key/value pairs attached to an object and, recursively, through the trees
of each value's key/value pairs. In default mode, the method returns a list of lists of names ('paths'):
log = console.log
{ inspect, } = require 'util'
d = { a: [ 0, 1, 2, ], e: { g: { some: 'thing', }, h: 42, h: null, }, empty: {}, }
for path in GUY.props.tree d
log inspect path
This will print:
[ 'a' ]
[ 'a', '0' ]
[ 'a', '1' ]
[ 'a', '2' ]
[ 'e' ]
[ 'e', 'g' ]
[ 'e', 'g', 'some' ]
[ 'e', 'h' ]
[ 'empty' ]
The default configuration for the tree() method is { allow_any: true, symbols: false, builtins: false, hidden: false, depth: null, evaluate: null, sep: null, }, with the last two settings being specific to
tree(), and the first five having the same meaning as for GUY.props.keys(), q.v.
To turn the result into a list of strings, pass in a property sep:
...
for path in GUY.props.tree d, { sep: '.', }
...
'a'
'a.0'
'a.1'
'a.2'
'e'
'e.g'
'e.g.some'
'e.h'
'empty'
The evaluate setting can be set to a function which will be called with an object { owner, key, value, }
where owner is the current object being iterated over, and key/value the current property name and
value. The evaluate function should return true, false, or a string that may contain the words take
and/or descend; the default (when no evaluate function is given) is take,descend, meaning all keys
will be both included in the list as well as descended into. true is equivalent to take,descend; false
means skip this property altogether. In the below example, we use the evaluate setting to avoid descending
into arrays and to include only the tips (leaves, endpoints) of the tree:
evaluate = ({ owner, key, value, }) ->
return 'take' if Array.isArray value
return 'take' unless GUY.props.has_keys value
return 'descend'
...
for path in GUY.props.tree d, { evaluate, sep: '.', }
...
'a'
'e.g.some'
'e.h'
'empty'
JavaScript is famously forgiving when it comes to accessing non-existing object properties. However this
lenience is also conducive to silent failure. Strict_owner is an ES6 class that aims to provide users with
a convenient mechanism to produce object that throw an error when a non-existing property is being accessed.
When you extend your class with GUY.props.Strict_owner, instance of your class will now throw an error
when a non-existing property is accessed.
Note Most often one will want to define a class that extends Strict_owner, however, it is also
possible to pass in an arbitrary object—including a function—as property target to the constructor, e.g.
f = ( x ) -> x * 2
x = new GUY.props.Strict_owner { target: f, }
Note As of Guy v6, special methods
get()andset()have been removed fromStrict_owner. They have been replaced with a much cleaner and more correct implementation asGUY.props.get()andGUY.props.has(). These methods are more versatile, too, since they can be used with any JS value (including the always-problematicnullandundefined).
Note
GUY.props.Strict_owneris implemented using an ES6Proxy. While proxies are powerfool tools they're also notoriously hard to get right because of the many methods one could/should/must implement and which all have to act in mutually consistent ways. As a result, my personal recommendation here is to try hard not use a proxy and use another methodology to achieve a workable solution where possible. One thing that will probably not work is proxying a proxy: When you have aStrict_ownerobject (which already is a proxy) and wrap it in another proxy, chances are you'll get errors likeinstance does not have property '0'when attempting to usenode:util.inspect()on that instance. I have been so far unable to fix that bug and since been looking for a solution that works without the need for a double proxy in that other codebase.
In order to get an object which is sealed and or frozen, use properties seal and freeze, respectively:
d = { x: 42, }
dso = new GUY.props.Strict_owner { target: d, seal: true, freeze: true, }
# this works:
dso.x # 42
# but none of these work:
# Strict owner ship means unknown properties cannot be accessed:
dso.y # Strict_owner instance does not have property 'y'
# Properties of a frozen object cannot be re-assigned:
dso.x = 48 # TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'x'
# Properties cannot be added to a sealed object (also implied by being frozen):
dso.y = 'something' # TypeError: Cannot define property y, object is not extensible
In addition, when property oneshot is set (and neither seal nor freeze), properties can be set once,
but not get re-assigned. In case non-re-assignable values should also be immutable, consider to set frozen
objects:
d = { x: 42, }
dso = new GUY.props.Strict_owner { target: d, oneshot: true, }
dso.xy = new GUY.props.Strict_owner { target: { foo: 'bar', }, freeze: true, }
# dso.x = 123 # Strict_owner instance already has property 'x'
# dso.xy = {} # Strict_owner instance already has property 'xy'
# dso.xy.foo = 'gnu' # TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'foo'
Observe that because all of the sealing, freezing and one-shot business is performed on the proxy, not on the target object, we can still manipulate that one:
debug '^35345^', dso # { x: 42, xy: { foo: 'bar' } }
debug '^35345^', d # { x: 42, xy: { foo: 'bar' } }
# we *can* still manipulate the underlying object:
d.x = 123
debug '^35345^', dso # { x: 123, xy: { foo: 'bar' } }
debug '^35345^', d # { x: 123, xy: { foo: 'bar' } }
It is possible to lift the strict behavior of Strict_owner instances by using Strict_owner.set_locked false and resume strict behavior with Strict_owner.set_locked true.

For many people, the most strightforward way to understand what these methods do will be to read the very simple definitions:
every: ( dts, f ) -> setInterval f, dts * 1000after: ( dts, f ) -> setTimeout f, dts * 1000cease: ( toutid ) -> clearTimeout toutidsleep: ( dts ) -> new Promise ( done ) => setTimeout done, dts * 1000defer: ( f = -> ) -> await sleep 0; return await f()In each case, dts denotes an interval (delta time) measured in seconds (not milliseconds) and f
denotes a function. every() and after() return so-called timeout IDs (toutids), i.e. values that are
recognized by cease() (clearTimeout(), clearInterval()) to stop a one-off or repetetive timed function
call. sleep() returns a promise that should be awaited as in await sleep 3, which will allow another
task on the event loop to return and resume execution no sooner than after 3000 milliseconds have elapsed.
Finally, there is defer(), which should also be awaited. It is a special use-case of sleep() where the
timeout is set to zero, so the remaining effect is that other tasks on the event loop get a chance to run.
It accepts an optional function argument whose (synchronous or asynchronous) result will be returned.
GUY.nowait: De-Asyncify JS Async FunctionsNote Due to ongoing issues when compiling the deasync module that this functionality
is implemented in, guy-nowaithas been removed from this release.
GUY.nowait.for_callbackable: ( fn_with_callback ) ->—given an asynchronous function afc that
accepts a NodeJS-style callback (as in afc v1, v2, ..., ( error, result ) -> ...), returns a synchronous
function sf that can be used without a callback (as in result = sf v1, v2, ...).
GUY.nowait.for_awaitable: ( fn_with_promise ) ->—given an asynchronous function afp that can be
used with await (as in result = await afp v1, v2, ...) returns a synchronous function f that can be
used without await (as in result = sf v1, v2, ...).
GUY.process: Process-Related UtilitiesPeer Dependencies: sindresorhus/exit-hook
GUY.process.on_exit: ( fn ) => ...—call fn() before process exits. Convenience link for
sindresorhus/exit-hook, which see for details. Note
When installing this peer dependency, make sure to do so with the last CommonJS version added, as in npm install exit-hook@2.2.1.GUY.lft: Freezing ObjectsGUY.left.freeze() and GUY.lft.lets() provide access to the epynomous methods in
letsfreezethat. freeze() is basically
Object.freeze() for nested objects, while d = lets d, ( d ) -> mutate d provides a handy way to mutate
and re-assign a copy of a frozen object. See the
documentation for details.
GUY.fs: File-Related StuffGUY.fs.walk_lines = ( path, cfg ) ->—Given a path, return a synchronous iterator over file
lines. This is the most hassle-free approach to synchronously obtain lines of text files in NodeJS that
I'm aware of, yet. The optional cfg argument may be an object with a single property decode; when set
to false, walk_lines() will iterate over buffers instead of strings. Observe that currently the
newline character is always assumed to be \n (i.e. U+00a0).
Behavior regarding terminal newline characters: The following invariant shall hold:
FS = require 'node:fs'
file_content = FS.readFileSync path, { encoding: 'utf-8', }
lines_1 = file_content.split '\n'
lines_2 = [ ( GUY.fs.walk_lines path )..., ]
( JSON.stringify lines_1 ) == ( JSON.stringify lines_2 )
In other words, the lines iterated over by GUY.fs.walk_lines() are the same lines as would be obtained
by splitting the file content using String::split(), meaning that
( '\n' ).split '\n' gives [ '', '', ])( '' ).split '\n' gives [ '', ])GUY.fs.walk_circular_lines = ( path, cfg ) ->—Given a path, return an iterator over the lines in
the referenced file; optionally, when the iterator is exhausted (all lines have been read), restart from
the beginning. cfg may be an object with the keys:
loop_count—(cardinal; default: 1) controls how many times to loop over the file. Set to
+Infinity to allow for an unlimited number of laps.line_count—(cardinal; default: +Infinity) controls the maximum number of lines that will be
yielded.GUY.fs.walk_circular_lines() will act like GUY.fs.walk_lines.loop_count or line_count are set to 0.GUY.fs.get_content_hash = ( path, cfg ) ->—Given a path, return the
hexadecimal sha1 hash digest for its contents. On Linux, this uses sha1sum, and shasum on all
other systems.
GUY.src: JS Source Code AnalysisThis submodule needs peer-dependencies, install them with
npm install acorn acorn-loose acorn-walk astringor
pnpm add acorn acorn-loose acorn-walk astring
@STRICT_PARSER = require 'acorn'
@LOOSE_PARSER = require 'acorn-loose'
@AST_walk = require 'acorn-walk'
@ASTRING = require 'astring'
@parse = ( cfg ) =>—Given either a JS source text or a function, return an
ESTree-compliant AST. Should an error occur and fallback is set to
any value, that value will be returned; otherwise, the error will be thrown. The use parameter controls
which parser is used and can take on the values 'strict', 'strict,loose', and 'loose'. For many
settings 'strict,loose' will probably the right setting since the strict parser will balk already on
unnamed function declarations that are not part of assignment, while the 'loose' parser happily (and
correctly parses those). For this reason, the default setting is use: 'strict,loose'.
slug_node_from_simple_function = ( cfg ) =>—Same as slug_from_simple_function(), below, but
returns an AST node representing the result. You can manipulate the node if you want it and then pass it
to GUY.src._generate() to get it rendered as JS, but the result will slightly differ from what
slug_from_simple_function() would return for the same input because that function does some
post-processing on the source text to make it even terser.
slug_from_simple_function = ( cfg ) =>—Given the same cfg object one would use for
GUY.src.parse(), return a 'slug' (i.e. a condensed form) of its source text. This slug is defined to be

Note refer to hengist to see how to use these methods until docs are written; the below gives a rough idea:

return done?()
GUY.temp.create_directory() will create a directory and return an object with two entries, rm and
path. rm is a function that, when called without arguments, will remove the directory whose location is
indicated by path. One way to ensure such a temporary directory will in fact be removed is to use
GUY.process.on_exit(), as in GUY.process.on_exit -> warn "removing #{path}"; rm()

rpr x, cfg or rpr P...node:util.inspect[–] implement method that allows to name a type and give a cfg object, returns cfg for named typed
based on crossmatch()ing defaults for that type with given cfg
[–] GUY.trm.warn(), alert(): collect and re-issue on process exit; may want to throw error or at
least issue non-zero error code when messages beyond (configurable) urgency threshold were issued; this
will allow apps to not bail out prematurely on minor issues and keep messages from getting hidden in
regular messages
[–] turn Strict_owner instances into sealed objects, retaining old behavior in new class
Strict_getter
[–] turn GUY, submodules into Strict_owner instances
[–] move deep freezing, deep sealing from lft to props?
[–] concerning Strict_owner: in
hengist/dev/intertype/_ng.test.coffee
we have found a way to build custom-named functions with strict ownership:
@_demo_type_cfgs_as_funmctions_2 = ->
class Intertype
create_type_cfg: ( cfg ) ->
defaults = { extras: true, collection: false, type: null, }
cfg = { defaults..., cfg..., }
name = cfg.type
R = ( ( x ) -> x ** 2 ).bind @
Object.defineProperty R, 'name', { value: name, }
R[ k ] = v for k, v of cfg
R = new GUY.props.Strict_owner target: R
Object.seal R
# R = GUY.lft.freeze R1 = R # <== doesn't freeze???
Object.freeze R # <== works as expected
return R
types = new Intertype()
urge '^982-1^', f = types.create_type_cfg { type: 'foobar', }
# Object is frozen, sealed, and has a strict `get()`ter:
urge '^982-2^', Object.isFrozen f
urge '^982-3^', Object.isSealed f
try f.collection = true catch error then warn rvr error.message # Cannot assign to read only property 'collection' of function 'function () { [native code] }'
try f.xxx catch error then warn rvr error.message # ^guy.props.Strict_owner@1^ Strict_owner instance does not have property 'xxx'
try f.xxx = 111 catch error then warn rvr error.message # Cannot define property xxx, object is not extensible
info '^982-4^', f.name
info '^982-5^', f 42
return null
This should lead to the following:
