Question

I have the following object in a JS file:

var IOBreadcrumb = function IOBreadcrumb() {
    this.breadcrumbs = [];
    this.add = function(title, url) {
      var crumb = {
        title: title, 
        url:url
      };
      this.breadcrumbs.push(crumb);
    };
  };

In another JS file I want to utilize this object:

//this occurs in some on click event
var breadcrumb = new IOBreadcrumb();
breadcrumb.add('some title',url);
console.log(breadcrumb.breadcrumbs);

I would like there to only be 1 instance of IOBreadcrumb, so that when I click on a button, it will always add a breadcrumb to the array.

How can I accomplish this?

Answer 1

var IOBreadcrumb = {
    breadcrumbs: [],
    add: function(title, url) {
      var crumb = {
        title: title, 
        url:url
      };
      IOBreadcrumb.breadcrumbs.push(crumb);
    }
  };

Then:

IOBreadcrumb.add('some title',url);
console.log(IOBreadcrumb.breadcrumbs);
