## About

This is a helper module for Javascript that allows multiple Classes inheritance.

## Installation

`$ npm install multiple-extend [--save]`

## Usage

```js
const classes = require('multiple-extend');

class Character {
constructor(name) {
this.name = name;
this.distance = 0;
this.canWalk = true;
}

walk(x) {
return this.distance += x;
}
}

class Jumper {
constructor() {
this.distance = 0;
this.canJump = true;
}

jump(x) {
return this.distance += x;
}
}

class Diver {
constructor() {
this.deep = 0;
this.canDive = true;
}

dive(x) {
return this.deep += x;
}
}

class SuperCharacter extends classes(Character, Jumper, Diver) {
}

const player = new SuperCharacter('player1');
console.log(player.name); // Prints out "player1"

if (player.canWalk) // Can walk and will walk 5
player.walk(5);

if (player.canJump) // Can jump and will jump 1
player.jump(1);

if (player.canDive) // Can dive and will dive 1
player.dive(1);
```

### Argument pass-through

You can also define which arguments will be sent to subclass constructors
````js
class SuperCharacter extends classes([Character, null], [Jumper, 1, 2], [Diver, [3, null]]) {
constructor(distanceMin, distanceMax, ...args) {
super(distanceMin, distanceMax, ...args);
this.name = 'player1';
}
}
````
In the example above Character constructor will be no argument,
Jumper constructor will be called with arguments at index 1 and 2 (distanceMin, distanceMax),
Diver constructor will be called with arguments at index from 3 to Last.

### Checking implementations

You can check if extended class and its instance has implemented any class.

````js
const classes = require('multiple-extend');
const Implemented = classes.Implemented; // Special symb ol

class SuperCharacter extends classes(Character, Jumper, Diver) {
}

if (SuperCharacter[Implemented](Jumper))
console.log('Jumper implemented');

// You can also check using class names
if (SuperCharacter[Implemented]('Diver'))
console.log('Diver implemented');
````

## Node Compatibility

- node `>= 6.0`;
