JS

No Classes

No Switch statements

Switch Cases in js were poorly designed. They not faster than other methods, also each case must have a break; at then end of it or it will cascade into the next case. This can produce unseens bugs that are very hard to reproduce and track down.

The better approach is to produce an object mapping of your 'cases' and 'results'. This has the added benefit of easily being passed around, dynamically generated, or externalized into a config file if it becomes very large. Lodash's _.result is excellent for this, providing pure valueand functional cases, as well as defaults.

const getColor = (name, default='#333')=>{
	const mapping = {
		red : '#c0392b',
		blue : '#2980b9',
		green : '#27ae60',
		rand : ()=>_.sample(_.values(mapping))
	};
	return _.result(mapping, name.toLower(), default)
};
getColor('Green'); //'#27ae60'
getColor('Maroon'); //'#333'
