Package description
The is-data-descriptor npm package is used to determine if an object is a valid data descriptor. Data descriptors are object keys that have attributes like value, writable, enumerable, and configurable. This package checks if a given object conforms to the specification of a data descriptor.
Check if an object is a data descriptor
This feature allows you to verify if a given object is a valid data descriptor by checking its properties and their respective values.
const isDataDescriptor = require('is-data-descriptor');
const descriptor = {value: 'value', writable: true, enumerable: true, configurable: true};
const result = isDataDescriptor(descriptor); // result is true
This package is more general than is-data-descriptor. It checks if an object is any kind of descriptor, including data and accessor descriptors. It is a superset of is-data-descriptor functionality.
Similar to is-data-descriptor, but specifically checks if an object is a valid accessor descriptor, which includes properties like get, set, enumerable, and configurable.
While not limited to descriptors, this utility module can check the type of any JavaScript value, including whether it is a descriptor. It is more versatile but less specialized than is-data-descriptor.

Readme
Returns true if a value has the characteristics of a valid JavaScript data descriptor.
true
when the descriptor has valid properties with valid values.
false
when not an object or when the object has invalid properties.
var isDataDesc = require('is-data-descriptor');
var assert = require('assert');
assert.equal(true, isDataDesc({ value: 'foo' }));
assert.equal(true, isDataDesc({ value: function () {} }));
assert.equal(true, isDataDesc({ value: true }));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc('a'));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc(null));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc([]));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc({ value: 'foo', bar: 'baz' }));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc({ value: 'foo', bar: 'baz' }));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc({ value: 'foo', get: function () {} }));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc({ get: function () {}, value: 'foo' }) );
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc({ value: 'foo', enumerable: 'foo' }));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc({ value: 'foo', configurable: 'foo' }));
assert.equal(false, isDataDesc({ value: 'foo', writable: 'foo' }));
The only valid data descriptor properties are the following:
configurable
(required)enumerable
(required)value
(optional)writable
(optional)To be a valid data descriptor, either value
or writable
must be defined.
Invalid properties
A descriptor may have additional invalid properties (an error will not be thrown).
var foo = {};
Object.defineProperty(foo, 'bar', {
enumerable: true,
whatever: 'blah', // invalid, but doesn't cause an error
get: function() {
return 'baz';
}
});
console.log(foo.bar);
//=> 'baz'
