Any way to dry up chained methods? #379
Description
First of all, great library, thank you. I'm wondering if there's a good way to dry up some of my chaining. Say I have something like this:
new TypeIt('#my-el')
.type('abc')
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type('\n')
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type('123')
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type('\n')
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type('456')
.go();Is it possible to encapsulate the
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type('\n')
.move(null, { instant: true })stuff into its own function somehow?
I know this works:
let t = new TypeIt('#my-el').type('abc');
t = typeAtStart(t, '123');
t = typeAtStart(t, '456');
t.go();
function typeAtStart(typeIt: TypeIt, text: string) {
return typeIt
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type('\n')
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type(text);
}But I'm wondering if there's a more idiomatic way to do it, maybe without having to break up the chain.
I tried doing it like this:
new TypeIt('#$my-el')
.type('abc')
.exec((t) => typeAtStart(t, '123'))
.exec((t) => typeAtStart(t, '456'))
.go();
function typeAtStart(typeIt: TypeIt, text: string) {
return typeIt
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type('\n')
.move(null, { instant: true })
.type(text);
}But that doesn't seem to work.
