Or add to the Function.prototype in a responsible way:
// only has to be done oncerequire('once').proto()functionload(file,cb){cb=cb.once()loader.load('file')loader.once('load',cb)loader.once('error',cb)}
Ironically, the prototype feature makes this module twice as
complicated as necessary.
To check whether your function has been called, use fn.called. Once the
function is called for the first time the return value of the original
function is saved in fn.value and subsequent calls will continue to
return this value.
Some functions are expected to be called only once. Using once for them would
potentially hide logical errors.
In the example below, the greet function has to call the callback only once:
functiongreet(name,cb){// return is missing from the if statement// when no name is passed, the callback is called twiceif(!name)cb('Hello anonymous')cb('Hello '+name)}functionlog(msg){console.log(msg)}// this will print 'Hello anonymous' but the logical error will be missedgreet(null,once(msg))// once.strict will print 'Hello anonymous' and throw an error when the callback will be called the second timegreet(null,once.strict(msg))
