AsyncGeneratorFunction
The AsyncGeneratorFunction
object provides methods for async generator functions. In JavaScript, every async generator function is actually an AsyncGeneratorFunction
object.
Note that AsyncGeneratorFunction
is not a global object. It can be obtained with the following code:
js
const AsyncGeneratorFunction = async function* () {}.constructor;
AsyncGeneratorFunction
is a subclass of Function
.
Try it
Constructor
AsyncGeneratorFunction()
-
Creates a new
AsyncGeneratorFunction
object.
Instance properties
Also inherits instance properties from its parent Function
.
These properties are defined on AsyncGeneratorFunction.prototype
and shared by all AsyncGeneratorFunction
instances.
AsyncGeneratorFunction.prototype.constructor
-
The constructor function that created the instance object. For
AsyncGeneratorFunction
instances, the initial value is theAsyncGeneratorFunction
constructor. AsyncGeneratorFunction.prototype.prototype
-
All async generator functions share the same
prototype
property, which isAsyncGenerator.prototype
. Each async generator function instance also has its ownprototype
property. When the async generator function is called, the returned async generator object inherits from the async generator function'sprototype
property, which in turn inherits fromAsyncGeneratorFunction.prototype.prototype
. AsyncGeneratorFunction.prototype[@@toStringTag]
-
The initial value of the
@@toStringTag
property is the string"AsyncGeneratorFunction"
. This property is used inObject.prototype.toString()
.
Instance methods
Inherits instance methods from its parent Function
.
