试图制作 NPM package

Question

Basically, im trying to make a package that would look like this in my main project file

const package = require("package");
const newPackage = new package({
  param: 'value',
  otherParam: 'otherValue'
});

and then in every other project file I could use

const { someFunction } = require('package')

someFunction()

and then the SomeFunction() function should return value and otherValue without needing to do

const package = require("package");
const newPackage = new package({
  param: 'value',
  otherParam: 'otherValue'
});

newPackage.someFunction()

in every project file.

Im not sure how to do this or if this is even possible, but would love something that would work like (or similar to) this.

While it would be possible to do this, it would involve some pretty smelly code - the package would have to have calling the constructor produce side-effects and return an unused instance. For a very slight tweak, consider instead if you could change the init code from

const package = require("package");
const newPackage = new package({
  param: 'value',
  otherParam: 'otherValue'
});

to something like

const { init } = require("package");
init({
  param: 'value',
  otherParam: 'otherValue'
});

That would be quite doable and not smelly. Put a variable in the package's scope that gets assigned to when init is called, and return that variable when someFunction is called.

let initObj;
module.exports = {
  init(obj) {
    initObj = obj;
  },
  someFunction() {
    return initObj;
  }
};

Live snippet:

 const theModule = (() => { let initObj; return { init(obj) { initObj = obj; }, someFunction() { return initObj; } } })(); theModule.init({ param: 'value', otherParam: 'otherValue' }); console.log(theModule.someFunction());
