get

list.get()

Returns the list converted into a plain JS array. Any items that also have a get method will have their get method called and the resulting value will be used as item value.

This can be used to recursively convert a list instance to an Array of other plain JavaScript objects. Cycles are supported and only create one object.

get() can still return other non-plain JS objects like Dates. Use serialize when a form proper for JSON.stringify is needed.

var list = new DefineList(["A","B"]);
list.get() //-> ["A","B"]

list.get(index)

Gets the item at index. list.get(index) should be used instead of list[index] if the list's items are going to be updated via list.set(index, value) (as opposed to splice which is the better way).

var list = new DefineList(["A","B"]);
list.get(1) //-> "B"

list.get(prop)

Gets the property at prop if it might not have already been defined.

var list = new DefineList(["A","B"]);
list.set("count",1000)
list.get("count") //-> 1000
