Getting Started

Installation

npm

npm install @chickendinosaur/eventemitter

Usage

Event

import Event from '@chickendinosaur/eventemitter/Event';

const pauseEvent = new Event('pause');
pauseEvent.target = window || this;

pauseEvent.dispose();

pauseEvent.init('pause');
pauseEvent.target = window || this;

EventEmitter

import EventEmitter from '@chickendinosaur/eventemitter';
import Event from '@chickendinosaur/eventemitter/Event.js';

class ComicEvent extends Event {
	constructor(type) {
		super(type);

		this.superhero = 'The Nameless Man';
		this.sidekick = null;
	}
}

const eventemitter = new EventEmitter();

const comicEvent = new ComicEvent('comic');
comicEvent.superhero = 'Batman';
comicEvent.sidekick = 'Robin';

eventemitter.addEventListener('comic', function (event) {
	console.log(`Callback scope: ${this.constructor.name}`);
	console.log(`Event: ${event.type}`);
	console.log(`${event.superhero} (POW!), ${event.sidekick} (BOOM!)`);
});

// Ability pipe all events to a listener.
eventemitter.pipe(function (event) {
	if (event.type === 'comic') {
		console.log(`Piped the ${event.type} event.`);
	}
});

console.log(`Listener count: ${eventemitter.getEventListenerCount('comic')}`);
console.log(`Piped listener count: ${eventemitter.getPipedEventListenerCount()}`);

// triggerEvent is meant to take an Event object which should be extended
// for a custom event or at least contain a 'type' property.

eventemitter.triggerEvent(comicEvent);

eventemitter.removeAllEventListeners('comic');
eventemitter.triggerEvent(comicEvent);

eventemitter.unpipeAll();
eventemitter.triggerEvent(comicEvent);
