A thing that is a lot like ES6 Map
, but without iterators, for use
in environments where for..of
syntax and Map
are not available.
If you need iterators, or just in general a more faithful polyfill to ES6 Maps, check out es6-map.
If you are in an environment where Map
is supported, then that will
be returned instead, unless process.env.TEST_PSEUDOMAP
is set.
You can use any value as keys, and any value as data. Setting again with the identical key will overwrite the previous value.
Internally, data is stored on an Object.create(null)
style object.
The key is coerced to a string to generate the key on the internal
data-bag object. The original key used is stored along with the data.
In the event of a stringified-key collision, a new key is generated by appending an increasing number to the stringified-key until finding either the intended key or an empty spot.
Note that because object traversal order of plain objects is not
guaranteed to be identical to insertion order, the insertion order
guarantee of Map.prototype.forEach
is not guaranteed in this
implementation. However, in all versions of Node.js and V8 where this
module works, forEach
does traverse data in insertion order.
Most of the Map API, with the following exceptions:
Map
object is not an iterator.values
, keys
, and entries
methods are not implemented,
because they return iterators.[key, value]
pairs, or a Map
or PseudoMap
object. But, since iterators
aren't used, passing any plain-old iterator won't initialize the
map properly.Use just like a regular ES6 Map.
var PseudoMap = require('pseudomap')
// optionally provide a pseudomap, or an array of [key,value] pairs
// as the argument to initialize the map with
var myMap = new PseudoMap()
myMap.set(1, 'number 1')
myMap.set('1', 'string 1')
var akey = {}
var bkey = {}
myMap.set(akey, { some: 'data' })
myMap.set(bkey, { some: 'other data' })
