rednib v0.0.2

rednib v0.0.2

rednib takes any object and makes it observable.

var pojo = {};
rednib(pojo);

var onFoo = function () { console.log('onFoo'); };

pojo.bind('foo', onFoo);
pojo.trigger('foo', onFoo);  // logs 'onFoo'
pojo.unbind('bar', onBar);  // omit the handler to remove all 'bar' handlers

The following will be added to your observable objects:

• bind (Function)
• unbind (Function)
• trigger (Function)
• _handlers (Array)

If you would prefer different function names, you can alias them.

rednib.alias('bind', 'when');
rednib.alias('trigger', 'broadcast');
rednib.alias('unbind', 'forget');

pojo.when('foo', onFoo);
pojo.broadcast('foo', onFoo);  // logs 'onFoo'
pojo.forget('foo', onFoo);

================================================

More Info

You an assign multiple handlers at once with an object.

pojo.bind({
  foo: function () {},
  bar: function () {},
  baz: function () {}
});

rednib, bind, trigger, and unbind all return the observable object, so they can be chained.

rednib({}).
  bind('foo', function () { console.log('yo'); }).
  trigger('foo').
  unbind('foo');

You can include data when triggering an event.

obj.on('foo', function (data) {
  // do something with data
});

obj.trigger('foo', { bar: true, baz: false });
