How To Define Properties In Javascript

How to define properties in javascript

Hello everybody,

here is short notice of how to define properties in javascript:

So, lets say you want to have class Dog, with "private" field alias and public property Alias. you can achieve it in the following way:

function Dog(nameOfDog) {

    var alias = nameOfDog;

    Object.defineProperty(this, "Alias", {

            get: function() {

                return alias;

            },

            set: function(value) {

                alias = value;

            }

        }

    });

}

Later in code you can write the following:

var rex = new Dog("Rex");

var name = rex.Name;   // name will be equal to "Rex"

Also you can set name of the dog to other name.
