EventDispatcher

A supportive base class that enables any object to dispatch events to registered listeners.

Installation

This module can be installed from npm.

$ npm install @vanruesc/eventdispatcher

Usage

import EventDispatcher from "@vanruesc/eventdispatcher";

function Something() {

	EventDispatcher.call(this);

}

Something.prototype = Object.create(EventDispatcher.prototype);
Something.prototype.constructor = Something;

// If you want Something to be a true sub-class of another class,
// you can just use the apply method for multi-inheritance:
EventDispatcher.prototype.apply(Something.prototype);

var sth = new Something();

sth.addEventListener("boom", function() {

	alert("pow!");

});

sth.dispatchEvent({type: "boom"});
