Sometimes, we want to add a private setter with TypeScript.
In this article, we’ll look at how to add a private setter with TypeScript.
How to add a private setter with TypeScript?
To add a private setter with TypeScript, we can use the private keyword.
For instance, we write
class Test {
_prop: string;
public get prop(): string {
return this._prop;
}
private get internalProp(): string {
return this.prop;
}
private set internalProp(value: string) {
this._prop = value;
}
private addToProp(valueToAdd: string): void {
this.internalProp += valueToAdd;
}
}
to create the internalProp setter that sets the this._prop value to value.
Then we can use the setter as we do in the addToProp by assigning a value to this.internalProp.
Conclusion
To add a private setter with TypeScript, we can use the private keyword.
