С помощью спецификации языка ECMAScript2015 (ES2015, ES6) можно обойтись без использования медленной и небезопасной eval функции и без Object.defineProperty метод, который портит функциональный объект и в любом случае не работает в некоторых важных аспектах.
См., Например, эту nameAndSelfBind
функцию, которая может как именовать анонимные функции, так и переименовывать именованные функции, а также привязывать их собственные тела к себе как this и хранить ссылки на обработанные функции для использоваться во внешней области ( JSFiddle ):
(function()
{
// an optional constant to store references to all named and bound functions:
const arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions = [],
removeEventListenerAfterDelay = 3000; // an auxiliary variable for setTimeout
// this function both names argument function and makes it self-aware,
// binding it to itself; useful e.g. for event listeners which then will be able
// self-remove from within an anonymous functions they use as callbacks:
function nameAndSelfBind(functionToNameAndSelfBind,
name = 'namedAndBoundFunction', // optional
outerScopeReference) // optional
{
const functionAsObject = {
[name]()
{
return binder(...arguments);
}
},
namedAndBoundFunction = functionAsObject[name];
// if no arbitrary-naming functionality is required, then the constants above are
// not needed, and the following function should be just "var namedAndBoundFunction = ":
var binder = function()
{
return functionToNameAndSelfBind.bind(namedAndBoundFunction, ...arguments)();
}
// this optional functionality allows to assign the function to a outer scope variable
// if can not be done otherwise; useful for example for the ability to remove event
// listeners from the outer scope:
if (typeof outerScopeReference !== 'undefined')
{
if (outerScopeReference instanceof Array)
{
outerScopeReference.push(namedAndBoundFunction);
}
else
{
outerScopeReference = namedAndBoundFunction;
}
}
return namedAndBoundFunction;
}
// removeEventListener callback can not remove the listener if the callback is an anonymous
// function, but thanks to the nameAndSelfBind function it is now possible; this listener
// removes itself right after the first time being triggered:
document.addEventListener("visibilitychange", nameAndSelfBind(function(e)
{
e.target.removeEventListener('visibilitychange', this, false);
console.log('\nEvent listener 1 triggered:', e, '\nthis: ', this,
'\n\nremoveEventListener 1 was called; if "this" value was correct, "'
+ e.type + '"" event will not listened to any more');
}, undefined, arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions), false);
// to prove that deanonymized functions -- even when they have the same 'namedAndBoundFunction'
// name -- belong to different scopes and hence removing one does not mean removing another,
// a different event listener is added:
document.addEventListener("visibilitychange", nameAndSelfBind(function(e)
{
console.log('\nEvent listener 2 triggered:', e, '\nthis: ', this);
}, undefined, arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions), false);
// to check that arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions constant does keep a valid reference to
// formerly anonymous callback function of one of the event listeners, an attempt to remove
// it is made:
setTimeout(function(delay)
{
document.removeEventListener('visibilitychange',
arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions[arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions.length - 1],
false);
console.log('\nAfter ' + delay + 'ms, an event listener 2 was removed; if reference in '
+ 'arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions value was correct, the event will not '
+ 'be listened to any more', arrayOfFormerlyAnonymousFunctions);
}, removeEventListenerAfterDelay, removeEventListenerAfterDelay);
})();
