How do I declare a namespace in JavaScript?
How do I create a namespace in JavaScript so that my objects and functions aren't overwritten by other same-named objects and functions? I've used the following:
if (Foo == null || typeof(Foo) != "object") { var Foo = new Object();}
Is there a more elegant or succinct way of doing this?
我喜欢这个:
var yourNamespace = {
foo: function() {
},
bar: function() {
}
};
...
yourNamespace.foo();
I use the approach found on the Enterprise jQuery site:
Here is their example showing how to declare private & public properties and functions. Everything is done as a self-executing anonymous function.
(function( skillet, $, undefined ) {
//Private Property
var isHot = true;
//Public Property
skillet.ingredient = "Bacon Strips";
//Public Method
skillet.fry = function() {
var oliveOil;
addItem( "tn Butter nt" );
addItem( oliveOil );
console.log( "Frying " + skillet.ingredient );
};
//Private Method
function addItem( item ) {
if ( item !== undefined ) {
console.log( "Adding " + $.trim(item) );
}
}
}( window.skillet = window.skillet || {}, jQuery ));
So if you want to access one of the public members you would just go skillet.fry()
or skillet.ingredients
.
What's really cool is that you can now extend the namespace using the exact same syntax.
//Adding new Functionality to the skillet
(function( skillet, $, undefined ) {
//Private Property
var amountOfGrease = "1 Cup";
//Public Method
skillet.toString = function() {
console.log( skillet.quantity + " " +
skillet.ingredient + " & " +
amountOfGrease + " of Grease" );
console.log( isHot ? "Hot" : "Cold" );
};
}( window.skillet = window.skillet || {}, jQuery ));
The third undefined
argument
The third, undefined
argument is the source of the variable of value undefined
. I'm not sure if it's still relevant today, but while working with older browsers / JavaScript standards (ecmascript 5, javascript < 1.8.5 ~ firefox 4), the global-scope variable undefined
is writable, so anyone could rewrite its value. The third argument (when not passed a value) creates a variable named undefined
which is scoped to the namespace/function. Because no value was passed when you created the name space, it defaults to the value undefined
.
Another way to do it, which I consider it to be a little bit less restrictive than the object literal form, is this:
var ns = new function() {
var internalFunction = function() {
};
this.publicFunction = function() {
};
};
The above is pretty much like the module pattern and whether you like it or not, it allows you to expose all your functions as public, while avoiding the rigid structure of an object literal.
