Adding A Method To An Object That Is Inside Of A Function In Js

Hi this is from a challenge I was working on. Is there any way i can add the introduce method to the personStore object without using the keyword this. Any insight is greatly appre

Solution 1:

You can, but using this is a lot simpler.

This code passes the name property as an argument, but as the property is already accessible to the introduce function as an internal property via this, it is a bit wasteful.

var personStore = {
    // add code heregreet: function (){
    console.log('Hello');
  }
};

functionpersonFromPersonStore(name, age) {
  var person = Object.create(personStore);
  person.name = name;
  person.age = age;
  person.greet = personStore.greet;
  return person;    
};

personStore.introduce = function (nm) {
  console.log('Hi, my name is ' + nm)
}

person1=personFromPersonStore('Fred',21);
person1.introduce(person1.name);

Solution 2:

You can write it like this:

personFromPersonStore("whatevername","whateverage").name 

instead of this.
