events

Element event management component. Allows you to unbind listeners by event type , or unbind every listener from an element. It can work as a single global instance for managing all application events, but it's preferable to use it within another object that attaches events to elements, such as a template/view.

Installation

$ component install treygriffith/events

See http://github.com/component for more information

Example

var Events = require('events');
var events = new Events();
var a = document.querySelector('a');

var onclick = function () {
  e.preventDefault();
  console.log(e.target);
};

events.bind(a, 'click', function () {
  e.preventDefault();
  console.log(e.target);
});

events.bind(a, 'click', onclick);

events.bind(a, 'dblclick', function () {
  e.preventDefault();
  console.log(e.target);
});

events.bind(a, 'dblclick', function () {
  e.preventDefault();
  console.log(e.target + "2");
});

events.unbind(a, 'click', onclick); // removes only the onclick listener
events.unbind(a, 'dblclick'); // remove all the `dblclick` listeners
events.unbind(a); // remove all event listeners
