array.prototype.concat

An ES spec-compliant Array.prototype.concat shim/polyfill/replacement that works as far down as ES3.

This package implements the es-shim API interface. It works in an ES3-supported environment and complies with the spec.

Because Array.prototype.concat depends on a receiver (the “this” value), the main export takes the array to operate on as the first argument.

Example

 var concat = require('array.prototype.concat');
var assert = require('assert');

var a = [1, 1, 1];
assert.deepEqual(concat(a, 1, 2), [1, 1, 1, 1, 2]);
assert.deepEqual(a, [1, 1, 1]);

 var concat = require('array.prototype.concat');
var assert = require('assert');
/* when Array#concat is not present */
delete Array.prototype.concat;
var shimmed = concat.shim();
assert.equal(shimmed, concat.getPolyfill());
assert.equal(shimmed, Array.prototype.concat);
assert.deepEqual([1, 2, 3].concat(1, 2, 3), concat([1, 2, 3], 1, 2, 3));

 var concat = require('array.prototype.concat');
var assert = require('assert');
/* when Array#concat is present */
var shimmed = concat.shim();
assert.equal(shimmed, Array.prototype.concat);
assert.deepEqual([1, 2, 3].concat(1, 2, 3), concat([1, 2, 3], 1, 2, 3));
