ECMAScript 5 extensions
(with respect to ECMAScript 6 standard)
Shims for upcoming ES6 standard and other goodies implemented strictly with ECMAScript conventions in mind.
It's designed to be used in compliant ECMAScript 5 or ECMAScript 6 environments. Older environments are not supported, although most of the features should work with correct ECMAScript 5 shim on board.
When used in ECMAScript 6 environment, native implementation (if valid) takes precedence over shims.
Installation
$ npm install es5-ext
To port it to Browser or any other (non CJS) environment, use your favorite CJS bundler. No favorite yet? Try: Browserify, Webmake or Webpack
Usage
ECMAScript 6 features
You can force ES6 features to be implemented in your environment, e.g. following will assign from
function to Array
(only if it's not implemented already).
require('es5-ext/array/from/implement');
Array.from('foo'); // ['f', 'o', 'o']
You can also access shims directly, without fixing native objects. Following will return native Array.from
if it's available and fallback to shim if it's not.
var aFrom = require('es5-ext/array/from');
aFrom('foo'); // ['f', 'o', 'o']
If you want to use shim unconditionally (even if native implementation exists) do:
var aFrom = require('es5-ext/array/from/shim');
aFrom('foo'); // ['f', 'o', 'o']

Non ECMAScript standard features
es5-ext provides also other utils, and implements them as if they were proposed for a standard. It mostly offers methods (not functions) which can directly be assigned to native prototypes:
Object.defineProperty(Function.prototype, 'partial', { value: require('es5-ext/function/#/partial'),
configurable: true, enumerable: false, writable: true });
Object.defineProperty(Array.prototype, 'flatten', { value: require('es5-ext/array/#/flatten'),
configurable: true, enumerable: false, writable: true });
Object.defineProperty(String.prototype, 'capitalize', { value: require('es5-ext/string/#/capitalize'),
configurable: true, enumerable: false, writable: true });
See es5-extend, a great utility that automatically will extend natives for you.
Important: Remember to not extend natives in scope of generic reusable packages (e.g. ones you intend to publish to npm). Extending natives is fine only if you're the owner of the global scope, so e.g. in final project you lead development of.
When you're in situation when native extensions are not good idea, then you should use methods indirectly:
var flatten = require('es5-ext/array/#/flatten');
flatten.call([1, [2, [3, 4]]]); // [1, 2, 3, 4]
for better convenience you can turn methods into functions:
var call = Function.prototype.call
var flatten = call.bind(require('es5-ext/array/#/flatten'));
flatten([1, [2, [3, 4]]]); // [1, 2, 3, 4]
You can configure custom toolkit (like underscorejs), and use it throughout your application
var util = {};
util.partial = call.bind(require('es5-ext/function/#/partial'));
util.flatten = call.bind(require('es5-ext/array/#/flatten'));
util.startsWith = call.bind(require('es5-ext/string/#/starts-with'));
util.flatten([1, [2, [3, 4]]]); // [1, 2, 3, 4]
As with native ones most methods are generic and can be run on any type of object.

When null
is provided as a prototype, it's substituted with specially prepared object that derives from Object.prototype but has all Object.prototype properties shadowed with undefined.

Use only for objects that you plan to switch prototypes of and be aware of limitations of this workaround.

Create new object with same values, but remapped keys
mixin(target, source) (es5-ext/object/mixin)
Extend target by all own properties of other objects. Properties found in both objects will be overwritten (unless they're not configurable and cannot be overwritten). It was for a moment part of ECMAScript 6 draft.
mixinPrototypes(target, …source]) (es5-ext/object/mixin-prototypes)
Extends target, with all source and source's prototype properties.
Useful as an alternative for setPrototypeOf
in environments in which it cannot be shimmed (no __proto__

Useful for functions in which we either need to keep options object for future reference or need to modify it for internal use.

Creates an array of results of calling a provided function on every key-value pair in this object.

str.endsWith(searchString[, endPosition]) (es5-ext/string/#/ends-with)
Introduced with ECMAScript 6.
Whether strings ends with given string
str.hyphenToCamel() (es5-ext/string/#/hyphen-to-camel)
Convert hyphen separated string to camelCase, e.g. one-two-three -> oneTwoThree. Useful when converting names from filename convention to js property name convention.
str.indent(str[, count]) (es5-ext/string/#/indent)
Indents each line with provided str (if count given then str is repeated count times).
str.last() (es5-ext/string/#/last)
Return last character
str.normalize([form]) (es5-ext/string/#/normalize)
Introduced with ECMAScript 6.

str.pad(fill[, length]) (es5-ext/string/#/pad)
Pad string with fill. If length si given than fill is reapated length times. If length is negative then pad is applied from right.
str.repeat(n) (es5-ext/string/#/repeat)
Introduced with ECMAScript 6.
Repeat given string n times
str.plainReplace(search, replace) (es5-ext/string/#/plain-replace)
Simple replace
version. Doesn't support regular expressions. Replaces just first occurrence of search string. Doesn't support insert patterns, therefore it is safe to replace text with text obtained programmatically (there's no need for additional $ characters escape in such case).
str.plainReplaceAll(search, replace) (es5-ext/string/#/plain-replace-all)
Simple replace
version. Doesn't support regular expressions. Replaces all occurrences of search string. Doesn't support insert patterns, therefore it is safe to replace text with text obtained programmatically (there's no need for additional $ characters escape in such case).
str.startsWith(searchString[, position]) (es5-ext/string/#/starts-with)
Introduced with ECMAScript 6.
Whether strings starts with given string
str[@@iterator] (es5-ext/string/#/@@iterator)
