The line of code Validation.ValidationFunctions = ValidationFunctions;
assigns the object ValidationFunctions
(presumably already defined elsewhere) as a property of the Validation
object. Here's a breakdown of what this line does:
-
Validation
:- This is likely an object (already defined) to which we are adding or updating a property.
-
ValidationFunctions
:- This is another object (or variable) that contains some functionality, such as methods or data, which will now be assigned to
Validation.ValidationFunctions
.
- This is another object (or variable) that contains some functionality, such as methods or data, which will now be assigned to
-
Purpose:
- By doing this, you're associating
ValidationFunctions
with theValidation
object, making it accessible asValidation.ValidationFunctions
. - This is commonly seen when creating namespaces or modules to organize code and make it easier to use.
- By doing this, you're associating
Example Use Case
If you want to group several validation-related functions under one Validation
object, you might do something like this:
const ValidationFunctions = {
isEmail: function (str) {
return /\S+@\S+\.\S+/.test(str);
},
isPhone: function (str) {
return /^\d{10}$/.test(str);
}
};
// Assign ValidationFunctions to Validation
const Validation = {};
Validation.ValidationFunctions = ValidationFunctions;
// Usage:
console.log(Validation.ValidationFunctions.isEmail("test@example.com")); // true
console.log(Validation.ValidationFunctions.isPhone("1234567890")); // true
In summary, this line of code adds or assigns the ValidationFunctions
object as the ValidationFunctions
property of the Validation
object, enabling structured access to the ValidationFunctions
.
