JS: Getting class callers from inherited static functions [duplicate]

I need to call inherited static function (from Tower class) which adds new tower to array, based on type of tower.

I want to call function Mine.buy() (where Mine is subclass and buy is the static function), that should add new Mine to the array.

When the static buy function is called by some class, then it adds that class object to the array.

Simplified code:

const towers = []; // Array, where all towers will be stored


// superclass/ parent class of other towers
class Tower {
    static buyAble = false;

    static buy() {
        if (Tower.buyAble) towers.push(new Tower());
      // I mean if it is possible do to something like tihs:
      //if (CurrentTower.buyAble) towers.push(new CurrentTower());

      // CurrentTower is class name of used class (like when Mine.buy(), then CurrentTower = Mine)
    }
}


// Defining types of towers (subclasses)
class Base extends Tower {
    static buyAble = true;
}


class Mine extends Tower {
    static buyAble = false;
}


class Storage extends Tower {
    static buyAble = true;
}

Tower.buy();   // Leaves the towers array empty, because is not buyAble    ->   []
Base.buy();    // Adds Base to towers array, because is buyAble            ->   [Base]
Mine.buy();    // Leaves the towers array as it was before                 ->   [Base]
Storage.buy(); // Leaves the towers array as it was before                 ->   [Base, Storage]

It should do the same think like this:


const towers = []; // Array, where all towers will be stored

// Defining types of towers (subclasses)
class Base {
    static buyAble = true;

    static buy() {
        if (Base.buyAble) towers.push(new Base());
    }
}


class Mine {
    static buyAble = false;

    static buy() {
        if (Mine.buyAble) towers.push(new Mine());
    }
}


class Storage {
    static buyAble = true;

    static buy() {
        if (Storage.buyAble) towers.push(new Storage());
    }
}

Base.buy();    // Adds Base to towers array, because is buyAble            ->   [Base]
Mine.buy();    // Leaves the towers array as it was before                 ->   [Base]
Storage.buy(); // Leaves the towers array as it was before                 ->   [Base, Storage]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
