For more information about symbols see following links
Underneath it uses real string property names which can easily be retrieved, however accidental collision with other property names is unlikely.
If you'd like to use native version when it exists and fallback to ponyfill if it doesn't, use es6-symbol as following:
var Symbol = require('es6-symbol');
If you want to make sure your environment implements Symbol
globally, do:
require('es6-symbol/implement');
If you strictly want to use polyfill even if native Symbol
exists (hard to find a good reason for that), do:
var Symbol = require('es6-symbol/polyfill');
Best is to refer to specification. Still if you want quick look, follow examples:
var Symbol = require('es6-symbol');
var symbol = Symbol('My custom symbol');
var x = {};
x[symbol] = 'foo';
console.log(x[symbol]); 'foo'
// Detect iterable:
var iterator, result;
if (possiblyIterable[Symbol.iterator]) {
iterator = possiblyIterable[Symbol.iterator]();
result = iterator.next();
while(!result.done) {
console.log(result.value);
result = iterator.next();
}
}
In your project path:
$ npm install es6-symbol
To port it to Browser or any other (non CJS) environment, use your favorite CJS bundler. No favorite yet? Try: Browserify, Webmake or Webpack
