Event emitter for node.js projects.

Please consider following this project's author, Jon Schlinkert, and consider starring the project to show your ❤️ and support.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save @sellside/emitter

Attribution

This is based on component-emitter, with some changes and a couple of new methods. That project seems to no longer be maintained.

Usage

Add to your node.js project with the following line of code:

var Emitter = require('@sellside/emitter');

API

Initialize a new Emitter.

Example

const Emitter = require('emitter');
// as an `Emitter` instance
const emitter = new Emitter;
emitter.emit('something');
// or inherit
class MyEmitter extends Emitter {}

Mixin methods from Emitter.

Params

  • obj {Object}
  • returns {Object}

Example

const Emitter = require('emitter');
const obj = {};
Emitter.mixin(obj);
obj.on('status', console.log);
obj.emit('status', 'I emit!');

Return the array of registered listeners for event.

Params

  • event {String}
  • returns {Array}

Example

// all listeners for event "status"
console.log(emitter.listeners('status'));
// all listeners
console.log(emitter.listeners());

Listen on the given event with fn.

Params

  • event {String}
  • fn {Function}
  • returns {Emitter}

Example

emitter.on('foo', () => 'do stuff');

Adds an event listener that will be invoked a single time then automatically removed.

Params

  • event {String}
  • fn {Function}
  • returns {Emitter}

Example

emitter.only('once', () => 'do stuff');

Ensures that listeners for event are only registered once and are disabled correctly when specified. This is different from .once, which only emits once.

Params

  • event {String}
  • options {Object}
  • fn {Function}
  • returns {Emitter}

Example

emitter.only('foo', () => 'do stuff');

Remove the given listener for event, or remove all registered listeners if event is undefined.

Params

  • event {String}
  • fn {Function}
  • returns {Emitter}

Example

emitter.off();
emitter.off('foo');
emitter.off('foo', fn);

Returns true if the emitter has registered listeners for event.

Params

  • event {String}
  • returns {Boolean}

Example

emitter.on('foo', 'do stuff');
console.log(emitter.has('foo')); // true
console.log(emitter.has('bar')); // false
