Get an iterator for any JS language value. Works robustly across all environments, all versions.
In modern engines, `value[Symbol.iterator]()` is sufficient to produce an iterator (an object with a `.next` method) for that object. However, older engines:
- may lack `Symbol` support altogether
- may have `Symbol.iterator` but not implement it on everything it should, like arguments objects
- may have `Map` and `Set`, but a non-standard name for the iterator-producing method (`.iterator` or `['@@iterator']`, eg)
- may be old versions of Firefox that produce values until they throw a StopIteration exception, rather than having iteration result objects
- may be polyfilled/shimmed/shammed, with `es6-shim` or `core-js` or similar
This library attempts to provide an abstraction over all that complexity!
In node v13+, `exports` is used to provide a lean implementation that lacks all the complexity described above, in combination with the `browser` field so that bundlers will pick up the proper implementation.
## Targeting browsers with Symbol support
If you are targeting browsers that definitely all have Symbol support, then you can configure your bundler to replace `require('has-symbols')()` with a literal `true`, which should allow dead code elimination to reduce the size of the bundled code.
### With `@rollup/plugin-replace`
```js
// rollup.config.js
import replace from '@rollup/plugin-replace';
export default {
...
plugins: [
replace({
"require('has-symbols')()": 'true',
delimiters: ['', '']
})
]
};
```
## Example
```js
var getIterator = require('es-get-iterator');
var assert = require('assert');
var iterator = getIterator('a 💩');
assert.deepEqual(
[iterator.next(), iterator.next(), iterator.next(), iterator.next()],
[{ done: false, value: 'a' }, { done: false, value: ' ' }, { done: false, value: '💩' }, { done: true, value: undefined }]
);
var iterator = getIterator([1, 2]);
assert.deepEqual(
[iterator.next(), iterator.next(), iterator.next()],
[{ done: false, value: 1 }, { done: false, value: 2 }, { done: true, value: undefined }]
);
var iterator = getIterator(new Set([1, 2]));
assert.deepEqual(
[iterator.next(), iterator.next(), iterator.next()],
[{ done: false, value: 1 }, { done: false, value: 2 }, { done: true, value: undefined }]
);
var iterator = getIterator(new Map([[1, 2], [3, 4]]));
assert.deepEqual(
[iterator.next(), iterator.next(), iterator.next()],
[{ done: false, value: [1, 2] }, { done: false, value: [3, 4] }, { done: true, value: undefined }]
);
```
