Core module for the Sugar Javascript utility library.
npm install sugar-coreThis is the core package of the Sugar
library. It provides basic behavior as well as the ability to define new methods.
All Sugar npm packages depend on this package. Plugin developers can also depend
on it to define new methods for Sugar plugins.
#### https://sugarjs.com/docs/
Note: All define methods are called on the global (or exported object in npm),
and accept either a name and a function as two arguments or a single object
mapping names to functions.
Defines a method to be called on the Sugar global or on a native global in
extended mode.
Defines a method to be called on the Sugar global or as an instance method on
chainables or native objects in extended mode. All methods should accept the
instance object as their first argument, and should never refer to this.
Defines a method to be called both as an instance and static method. This method
is required for Object methods, which must be defined as both static (as Sugar
will not extend Object.prototype) and instance (for chainables). Use this for
any methods intended as Object instance methods.
This method is identical to defineStatic except that when methods are called,
they will collect any arguments past n - 1, where n is the number of
arguments that the method accepts. Collected arguments will be passed to the
method as the last argument defined.
This method is identical to defineInstance except that when methods are
called, they will collect any arguments past n - 1, where n is the number of
arguments that the method accepts. Collected arguments will be passed to the
method as the last argument defined.
Defines a static method that is mapped onto a native if it does not already
exist. Intended only for creating polyfills that follow the ECMAScript spec.
Defines an instance method that is mapped onto a native prototype if it does not
already exist. Intended only for creating polyfills that follow the ECMAScript
spec. Note that this method differs from defineInstance as there is no static
signature (as the method is mapped as-is to the native), so it should refer to
its this object.
