	var EventEmitter = require('ee-event-emitter');
	var eventEmitter = new EventEmitter();

	// attach listsner which is called once
	eventEmitter.once('eventName', cb);

	// remove all listeners for all events
	eventEmitter.off();

	// remove listeners for specific event
	eventEmitter.off('eventName');

	// remove a single listener
	eventEmitter.off('eventName', listener);

	// emit an event
	eventEmitter.emit('eventName', arg, arg, ....);

	// get all listeners
	eventEmitter.listener();

	// get lsisteners for a specific event
	eventEmitter.listsner('eventName');

	// event which is emitted when an event listener is added
