An ECMAScript spec-compliant polyfill/shim for `globalThis`. Invoke its "shim" method to shim `globalThis` if it is unavailable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This package implements the [es-shim API](https://github.com/es-shims/api) interface. It works in an ES3-supported environment and complies with the [spec proposal](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-global).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Most common usage:
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var globalThis = require('globalthis')(); // returns native globalThis if compliant
|
||
|
|
/* or */
|
||
|
|
var globalThis = require('globalthis/polyfill')(); // returns native globalThis if compliant
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var assert = require('assert');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// the below function is not CSP-compliant, but reliably gets the
|
||
|
|
// global object in sloppy mode in every engine.
|
||
|
|
var getGlobal = Function('return this');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
assert.equal(globalThis, getGlobal());
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
/* when `globalThis` is not present */
|
||
|
|
var shimmedGlobal = require('globalthis').shim();
|
||
|
|
/* or */
|
||
|
|
var shimmedGlobal = require('globalthis/shim')();
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
assert.equal(shimmedGlobal, globalThis);
|
||
|
|
assert.equal(shimmedGlobal, getGlobal());
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
/* when `globalThis` is present */
|
||
|
|
var shimmedGlobal = require('globalthis').shim();
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
assert.equal(shimmedGlobal, globalThis);
|
||
|
|
assert.equal(shimmedGlobal, getGlobal());
|
||
|
|
```
