# es6-map ## Map collection as specified in ECMAScript6 __Warning: v0.1 version does not ensure O(1) algorithm complexity (but O(n)). This shortcoming will be addressed in v1.0__ ### Usage It’s safest to use *es6-map* as a [ponyfill](https://ponyfill.com) – a polyfill which doesn’t touch global objects: ```javascript var Map = require('es6-map'); ``` If you want to make sure your environment implements `Map` globally, do: ```javascript require('es6-map/implement'); ``` If you strictly want to use the polyfill even if the native `Map` exists, do: ```javascript var Map = require('es6-map/polyfill'); ``` ### Installation $ npm install es6-map To port it to Browser or any other (non CJS) environment, use your favorite CJS bundler. No favorite yet? Try: [Browserify](http://browserify.org/), [Webmake](https://github.com/medikoo/modules-webmake) or [Webpack](http://webpack.github.io/) #### API Best is to refer to [specification](http://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html#sec-map-objects). Still if you want quick look, follow examples: ```javascript var Map = require('es6-map'); var x = {}, y = {}, map = new Map([['raz', 'one'], ['dwa', 'two'], [x, y]]); map.size; // 3 map.get('raz'); // 'one' map.get(x); // y map.has('raz'); // true map.has(x); // true map.has('foo'); // false map.set('trzy', 'three'); // map map.size // 4 map.get('trzy'); // 'three' map.has('trzy'); // true map.has('dwa'); // true map.delete('dwa'); // true map.size; // 3 map.forEach(function (value, key) { // { 'raz', 'one' }, { x, y }, { 'trzy', 'three' } iterated }); // FF nightly only: for (value of map) { // ['raz', 'one'], [x, y], ['trzy', 'three'] iterated } var iterator = map.values(); iterator.next(); // { done: false, value: 'one' } iterator.next(); // { done: false, value: y } iterator.next(); // { done: false, value: 'three' } iterator.next(); // { done: true, value: undefined } map.clear(); // undefined map.size; // 0 ``` ## Tests [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/medikoo/es6-map.png)](https://travis-ci.org/medikoo/es6-map) $ npm test
