Binds methods to their class instance automagically
npm install autobindthis``
$ npm install autobindthis
`js
const autobind = require('autobindthis');
class Bat {
constructor(name) {
this.name = name;
autobind(this);
}
ultrasonic() {
return ${this.name} comes closer!;
}
}
const bat = new Bat('Quasel');
// Reference the method off the class instance
const ultrasonic = bat.ultrasonic;
// 'this' still refers to the class instance
ultrasonic();
//=> 'Quasel comes closer!'
// Without autobind(this), the above would have resulted in`
ultrasonic();
//=> Error: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined
