This is a destructive shim that implements the ES6 Map specification as closely as possible.
It is slow (lookups in O(n) time for now) and not intended for use in a production environment.
var map = new Map([['foo', 'bar'], [-0, function(){}]]);
map.set(null, 42);
map.get(-0);
=> function(){}
map.has(null);
=> true
map.keys();
=> ['foo', -0, null]
map.values();
=> ['bar', function(){}, 42]
map.items();
=> [['foo', 'bar'], [-0, function(){}], [null, 42]]
map.forEach(function(value, key, mapReference) {
console.log(typeof value);
});
=> 'string'\n'function'\n'number'\n
var iterator = map.iterator();
iterator.next();
=> ['foo', 'bar']
iterator.next();
=> [-0, function(){}]
map.delete(null);
=> true
// Remove all items
map.clear();
map.size;
=> 0
map.toString();
=> '[object Map]'In browsers, include es6-map-shim.js in your page:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.github.com/eriwen/es6-map-shim/master/es6-map-shim.js"></script>You can install this via:
- npm for node.js v0.8+:
npm install es6-map-shim - component(1):
component install eriwen/es6-map-shim - bower:
bower install es6-map-shim
If you also use the es5-shim, you can use this in:
- IE7+ (not fully tested yet)
- Firefox 15+
- Google Chrome 21+
- Safari 4+
- Opera 12+
- Node.js 0.8+
