# es6-weak-map ## WeakMap collection as specified in ECMAScript6 _Roughly inspired by Mark Miller's and Kris Kowal's [WeakMap implementation](https://github.com/drses/weak-map)_. Differences are: - Assumes compliant ES5 environment (no weird ES3 workarounds or hacks) - Well modularized CJS style - Based on one solution. ### Limitations - Will fail on non extensible objects provided as keys ### Installation $ npm install es6-weak-map To port it to Browser or any other (non CJS) environment, use your favorite CJS bundler. No favorite yet? Try: [Browserify](http://browserify.org/), [Webmake](https://github.com/medikoo/modules-webmake) or [Webpack](http://webpack.github.io/) ### Usage If you want to make sure your environment implements `WeakMap`, do: ```javascript require('es6-weak-map/implement'); ``` If you'd like to use native version when it exists and fallback to polyfill if it doesn't, but without implementing `WeakMap` on global scope, do: ```javascript var WeakMap = require('es6-weak-map'); ``` If you strictly want to use polyfill even if native `WeakMap` exists, do: ```javascript var WeakMap = require('es6-weak-map/polyfill'); ``` #### API Best is to refer to [specification](http://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html#sec-weakmap-objects). Still if you want quick look, follow example: ```javascript var WeakMap = require('es6-weak-map'); var map = new WeakMap(); var obj = {}; map.set(obj, 'foo'); // map map.get(obj); // 'foo' map.has(obj); // true map.delete(obj); // true map.get(obj); // undefined map.has(obj); // false map.set(obj, 'bar'); // map map.has(obj); // false ``` ## Tests [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/medikoo/es6-weak-map.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/medikoo/es6-weak-map) $ npm test
