Tiny event emitter based on standard EventTarget
This event emitter simply inherits from global standard class EventTarget and create methods aliases: on for addEventListener, off for removeEventListener and emit for dispatching custom events (see example below).
Installation
npm install @web-alchemy/event-target
Using
import EventEmitter from '@web-alchemy/event-target'
const eventEmitter = new EventEmitter()
eventEmitter.on('init', (event) => {
console.log(event.detail.hello) // 'world'
})
// dispatch `CustomEvent`
eventEmitter.emit('init', {
hello: 'world'
})
eventEmitter.on('change', (event) => {
console.log(event.type) // 'change'
})
eventEmitter.dispatchEvent(new Event('change'))
