## Main purpose

For convenience sake we want to work with common lists and objects but keep track of every change to commit them to the underlying storage.
`Object.observe()` and `Array.observe()` are pretty much the exact thing we want, but both work async via polling.

The proxy returns the type of mutation (`add`, `del`, `mod`) and which position (in root object) is affected.

## Example

```javascript
import DelegableProxy from 'delegable-proxy'

const example = [{'message': 'hello world'}]
const data = DelegableProxy.wire(example, (action, pos) => {
console.log(action, pos)
})
data.push({'message': 'hi there!'})
data.push({'message': 'knock knock!'})
```

## Known issues

- The way `Array.splice` works, leads to a lot of mutations on inner arrays. Better use the slow `delete foo[42].bar.stuff[0]`.
- We do not recommend to use this library in a production environment. This was just a fun project, some kind of PoC for us. We still use it in a dev environment which is only used internally.

## Usage

```bash
# add the library
yarn add delegable-proxy

# build the library
yarn build

# run the tests
yarn test
```
