# Object Class Initializer

Demo repo for using an anonymous class as an object initializer in TypeScript.

## Motivation 💥

Create an object using an anonymous class to access the 'object' during its initialization. It's 6 lines of code, you might want to just copy paste this instead of installing this package, but who am I to judge?

## Read About This 📖

I wrote a [medium post](https://loaderb0t.medium.com/you-cannot-access-a-javascript-object-during-its-initialization-or-can-you-513fa248cfb7) about the idea of this package. Please read the post to get all the details!

## Features 🔥

✅ Create an object instance using an anonymous class

✅ Access the object during its initialization

✅ Type the object using generics (type safety)

✅ No dependencies

## Built With 🔧

- [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)

## Installation 📦

```console

pnpm i object-class-initializer

// or

yarn add object-class-initializer

// or

npm i object-class-initializer

```

## Usage Example 🚀

```typescript

import { createObject } from 'object-class-initializer';

```

```typescript

const obj = createObject(

  class {

    a = 'foo';

    b = 'bar';

    c = this.a + this.b; // foobar

  }

);

// obj is now typed as { a: string, b: string, c: string }

// OR typed

type FooBar = {

  a: string;

  b: string;

  c: string;

};

const obj = createObject(

  class {

    a = 'foo';

    b = 'bar';

    c = this.a + this.b; // foobar

  }

);

// obj is now typed as FooBar

```
