Plugin architecture example (open-close principle)

calculator-plugin-architecture.js

// The Calculator
const betaCalc = {
  currentValue: 0,
  
  setValue(value) {
    this.currentValue = value;
    console.log(this.currentValue);
  },
 
  core: {
    'plus': (currentVal, addend) => currentVal + addend,
    'minus': (currentVal, subtrahend) => currentVal - subtrahend
  },


  plugins: {},    


  press(buttonName, newVal) {
    const func = this.core[buttonName] || this.plugins[buttonName];
    this.setValue(func(this.currentValue, newVal));
  },


  register(plugin) {
    const { name, exec } = plugin;
    this.plugins[name] = exec;
  }
};
  
// Our Plugin
const squaredPlugin = { 
  name: 'squared',
  exec: function(currentValue) {
    return currentValue * currentValue;
  }
};


betaCalc.register(squaredPlugin);


// Using the calculator
betaCalc.setValue(3);      // => 3
betaCalc.press('plus', 2); // => 5
betaCalc.press('squared'); // => 25
betaCalc.press('squared'); // => 625
