Below examples illustrate the handler.get() method in JavaScript:
Example 1: In this example, we will set a trap to get the value of the object using the handler.get() method in JavaScript.
javascript
const monster1 = { string: 'Geeksforneveropen', num: 334};const handler1 = { get: function (target, prop, receiver) { if (prop === 'string') { return `${target.string.substr(0, 8)} ... Best portal!`; } else { return Reflect.get(...arguments); } }};const proxy1 = new Proxy(monster1, handler1);console.log(proxy1.num);console.log(proxy1.string);console.log(proxy1.numstring);const obj = new Proxy({}, { get: function (target, property, receiver) { console.log('Property : ' + property); return 56.56; }});console.log(obj.value); |
Output:
334 "Geeksfor ... Best portal!" undefined "Property : value" 56.56
Example 2: In this example, we will set a trap to get the value of the object using the handler.get() method in JavaScript.
javascript
const obj = {};Object.defineProperty(obj, 'a', { configurable: false, enumerable: false, value: 10, writable: false});const p = new Proxy(obj, { get: function (target, property) { return 10; }});console.log(p.a);let datalist = { "vala": 32, "valb": 7}let get = new Proxy( datalist, { get: function (y, idx) { return y[idx] * 11 }})for (let z in get) { console.log(z + " : " + get[z])} |
Output:
10 "vala : 352" "valb : 77"
