> Returns true if a value has the characteristics of a valid JavaScript descriptor. Works for data descriptors and accessor descriptors.

## Usage

```js
const isDescriptor = require('is-descriptor');
const assert = require('assert');

assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo' }), true);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, set() {} }), true);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get: 'foo', set() {} }), false);
```

You may also check for a descriptor by passing an object as the first argument and property name (`string`) as the second argument.

```js
const obj = { foo: 'abc' };

Object.defineProperty(obj, 'bar', {
  value: 'xyz'
});

assert.equal(isDescriptor(obj, 'foo'), true);
assert.equal(isDescriptor(obj, 'bar'), true);
```

## Examples

### value type

`false` when not an object

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor('a'), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor(null), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor([]), false);
```

### data descriptor

`true` when the object has valid properties with valid values.

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo' }), true);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value() {} }), true);
```

`false` when the object has invalid properties

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo', enumerable: 'baz' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo', configurable: 'baz' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo', get() {} }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, value() {} }), false);
```

`false` when a value is not the correct type

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo', enumerable: 'foo' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo', configurable: 'foo' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ value: 'foo', writable: 'foo' }), false);
```

### accessor descriptor

`true` when the object has valid properties with valid values.

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, set() {} }), true);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {} }), true);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ set() {} }), true);
```

`false` when the object has invalid properties

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, set() {}, enumerable: 'baz' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, writable: true }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, value: true }), false);
```

`false` when an accessor is not a function

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, set: 'baz' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get: 'foo', set() {} }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get: 'foo', bar: 'baz' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get: 'foo', set: 'baz' }), false);
```

`false` when a value is not the correct type

```js
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, set() {}, enumerable: 'foo' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ set() {}, configurable: 'foo' }), false);
assert.equal(isDescriptor({ get() {}, configurable: 'foo' }), false);
```
