Class Pattern

Change MyLibrary to whatever namespace you’d like to use for your library. The constructor object is lowercase, and functions are automatically attached to the instance prototype.

Source Code

Examples

// Create new instances of the constructor
let dugg = new MyLibrary();
let kevin = new MyLibrary(4);

// Run methods
dugg.add(2);
kevin.subtract(1);
let total = dug.total;

The Boilerplate

class MyLibrary {

	/**
	 * Create the constructor object
	 * @param {Number} start The starting amount
	 */

	constructor (start = 0) {
		this.total = start;
	}

	/**
	 * Add money to the total
	 */
	add (num = 1) {
		this.total = this.total + num;
	}

	/**
	 * Remove money from the total
	 */
	subtract (num = 1) {
		this.total = this.total - num;
	}
}
