Question

How would you translate this snippet of javascript to coffeescript? Specifically I’m struggling with how to call .property() on the function definition.

MyApp.president = SC.Object.create({
  firstName: "Barack",
  lastName: "Obama",

  fullName: function() {
    return this.get('firstName') + ' ' + this.get('lastName');

    // Call this flag to mark the function as a property
  }.property('firstName', 'lastName')
});

Answer 1

I think this is how you’re supposed to write it:

MyApp.president = SC.Object.create {
  firstName: "Barack",
  lastName: "Obama",
  fullName: (-> 
    return @get 'firstName' + ' ' + @get 'lastName'
    # Call this flag to mark the function as a property
  ).property('firstName', 'lastName')
}
