auto-class-methods-binder

Automatically bind methods to their class instance

It also correctly binds inherited properties.

Install

$ npm install auto-class-methods-binder

Usage

const autoBind = require('auto-class-methods-binder');
 
class Unicorn {
    constructor(name) {
        this.name = name;
        autoBind(this);
    }
 
    message() {
        return `${this.name} is awesome!`;
    }
}
 
const unicorn = new Unicorn('Rainbow');
 
// Grab the method off the class instance
const message = unicorn.message;
 
// Still bound to the class instance
message();
//=> 'Rainbow is awesome!'
 
// Without `autoBind(this)`, the above would have resulted in
message();
//=> Error: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined
