How can I get the value of the default parameters/arguments dynamicly without using the parameter variable?
function someFunc(param1 = 'value', param2 = 'value') {
console.log(arguments.length);
console.log(arguments[0]);
}
someFunc(); //0 undefined
I wanted to do the same, in order to assign several attributes to the instance of my class.
This approach might not help you since it uses one object argument instead of two arguments, still worth to mention:
class MyClass{
constructor(params={param1:3.1415, param2:'Hello'}){
//*assign* effectively destructures the params arg
Ojbect.assign(this,params);
}
}
Similarly your example would look like this:
function someFunc(params = {param1:'value', param2: 'value'}) {
console.log(Object.keys(params).length);
console.log(params['param1']);
}
Note that this approach requires your argument to be an object and that given one of the two arguments the other one will not be present in the default object.
You don't. Think about it this way. How do you get the default value with the old method?
function someFunc(param1, param2) {
param1 = param1 || 'value';
param2 = param2 || 'value';
console.log(arguments.length);
console.log(arguments[0]);
}
someFunc(); //0 undefined
Your best bet is to store the default value in a variable, and compare it in runtime. But that is kind of pointless.
