ee.Geometry.Point.aside

  • The aside function calls another function, passing the object it's called on as the first argument, and then returns the original object for method chaining.

  • It is convenient for tasks like debugging by allowing you to insert calls to functions like print at various stages in a processing chain.

  • The aside function accepts the function to call and any additional arguments needed by that function.

  • Examples demonstrate using aside with JavaScript in the Code Editor and Python in Colab to print or add layers based on the object's state.

Calls a function passing this object as the first argument, and returning itself. Convenient e.g. when debugging:

var c = ee.ImageCollection('foo').aside(print)

.filterDate('2001-01-01', '2002-01-01').aside(print, 'In 2001')

.filterBounds(geom).aside(print, 'In region')

.aside(Map.addLayer, {min: 0, max: 142}, 'Filtered')

.select('a', 'b');

Returns the same object, for chaining.
