Can I enumerate properties that only exist as getter/setter functions?

by

Given a class like this

class Stuff {
  set b(v) {
  }
  get c() {
    return 'x'
  }
}

const x = new Stuff
console.log(x.hasOwnProperty('b'))

how can I test for "properties" b and c, or list all such getter/setters? hasOwnProperty does not show them to exist.

  1. Just like all properties defined with method syntax (whether getter/setter or not), they’re on the prototype, not the instance, so call hasOwnProperty on the prototype:

    class Stuff {
  set b(v) {
  }
  get c() {
    return 'x'
  }
  notGetter() {}
}

const x = new Stuff
console.log(
  Object.getPrototypeOf(x).hasOwnProperty('b'),
  Stuff.prototype.hasOwnProperty('b')
);

const allGettersSetters = Object.entries(Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(Stuff.prototype))
  .filter(([, value]) => !value.hasOwnProperty('value'))
  .map(([key]) => key);
console.log(allGettersSetters);
