Challenge: Decorator Pattern

In this challenge, you have to implement the decorator pattern to solve the given problem.

We'll cover the following

Problem statement #

The code below implements the functionality that customizes superheroes for a game. If you study the code below, you’ll see that every superhero has a power. However, you can also create superheroes that have the following in addition to the power:

  • a superhero that also has a sword

  • a superhero that also has super speed

  • a superhero that has both a sword and super speed

Run the code below to see its implementation:

class SuperHero {
  constructor(name,power) {
    this.name = name
    this.power = power
  }
}
class SuperHeroWithSword extends SuperHero{
  constructor(name,power){
    super(name,power)
    this.sword = true
  }
  hasSword(){
    return `${this.name}'s power is ${this.power}, and he also has a sword now.`
  }
}
class SuperHeroWithSuperSpeed extends SuperHero{
  constructor(name,power){
    super(name,power)
    this.superSpeed = true
  }
  hasSuperSpeed(){
    return `${this.name}'s power is ${this.power}, and he also has the super speed now.`
  }
}
class SuperHeroWithSpeedandSword extends SuperHero{
  constructor(name,power){
    super(name,power)
    this.speedAndSword = true
  }
  hasSpeedAndSword(){
    return `${this.name}'s power is ${this.power}, and he also has both super speed and a sword now.`
  }
}
var superhero1 = new SuperHeroWithSword("Fire Man", "Fire")
console.log(superhero1.hasSword())
var superhero2 = new SuperHeroWithSuperSpeed("Fire Man", "Fire")
console.log(superhero2.hasSuperSpeed())
var superhero3 = new SuperHeroWithSpeedandSword("Ice Man", "Ice")
console.log(superhero3.hasSpeedAndSword())

If you carefully study the code, you’ll see that a superhero can only contain one of the three available customizations.

Your task is to modify the code such that there is an option to add multiple customizations to a single superhero object.

Input

A multiclass version code for making superheroes with different superpowers

Output

Messages displaying multiple superpowers of a superhero

Sample input

var superhero1 = new SuperHero("Fire Man", "Fire")
SuperHeroWithSword(superhero1)
SuperHeroWithSuperSpeed(superhero1)
var superhero2 = new SuperHero("Ice Man", "Ice")
SuperHeroWithSpeedandSword(superhero2)

Sample output

`Fire Man's power is Fire, and he also has a sword now.`
`Fire Man's power is Fire, and he also has the super speed now.`
`Ice Man's power is Ice, and he also has both super speed and a sword now.`

Take a close look and design a step-by-step solution before jumping on to the implementation. This problem is designed for your practice, so try to solve it on your own first. If you get stuck, you can always refer to the solution provided. Good Luck!

class SuperHero {
  constructor(name,power) {
    this.name = name
    this.power = power
  }
}
class SuperHeroWithSword extends SuperHero{
  constructor(name,power){
    super(name,power)
    this.sword = true
  }
  hasSword(){
    return `${this.name}'s power is ${this.power}, and he also has a sword now.`
  }
}
class SuperHeroWithSuperSpeed extends SuperHero{
  constructor(name,power){
    super(name,power)
    this.superSpeed = true
  }
  hasSuperSpeed(){
    return `${this.name}'s power is ${this.power}, and he also has the super speed now.`
  }
}
class SuperHeroWithSpeedandSword extends SuperHero{
  constructor(name,power){
    super(name,power)
    this.speedAndSword = true
  }
  hasSpeedAndSword(){
    return `${this.name}'s power is ${this.power}, and he also has both super speed and a sword now.`
  }
}

Let’s discuss the solution in the next lesson.
