Getting Started

You can use Protoblast in 2 ways.

Modify the native prototypes

This is the easiest way to use all the new methods & shims. Ideal for internal or big projects.

// Require protoblast and execute the returned function
require('protoblast')();

var str = 'Get what we want';

// New native methods, like after, will have been added
str.after('what');
// ' we want'

Use bound functions

You can also get an object that has pre-bound all the new methods, without modifying anything.

It's more verbose, but should be the way to use Protoblast in redistributable modules.

// Require protoblast and execute the returned function with `false` as parameter
var Blast = require('protoblast')(false);

var str = 'Get what we want';

// Native objects will have been left alone, they can be accessed like this:
Blast.Bound.String.after(str, 'what');
// ' we want'

Changelog

0.6.1 (2018-10-16)

• Informer#forwardEvent() now accepts a single event emitter to forward ALL events to
• Make Blast#setImmediate() throw an error if the callback argument isn't a function
• Function.setMethod() will use Obj.getPropertyDescriptor to check existing methods, so no getters are accidentally triggered
• Fix inheriting from a namespace when it is not yet available
