# onetime

> Ensure a function is only called once

When called multiple times it will return the return value from the first call.

*Unlike the module [once](https://github.com/isaacs/once), this one isn't naughty and extending `Function.prototype`.*

## Install

```sh
npm install onetime
```

## Usage

```js
import onetime from 'onetime';

let index = 0;

const foo = onetime(() => ++index);

foo(); //=> 1
foo(); //=> 1
foo(); //=> 1

onetime.callCount(foo); //=> 3
```

```js
import onetime from 'onetime';

const foo = onetime(() => {}, {throw: true});

foo();

foo();
//=> Error: Function `foo` can only be called once
```
