    this.canAccess = canAccess;
  }

JavaScript class constructor default values

You could either set a default value for options, i.e {}.

class User {
    constructor(options = {}) {
        this.name = options.name || "Joe";
        this.age = options.age || 47;
    }
}

or first, check for options to be truthful and then access the value.

class User {
    constructor(options) {
        this.name = options && options.name || "Joe";
        this.age = options && options.age || 47;
    }
}
