Oblivion — Module: mixins/signalable

Add the ability to fire signals on your objects. Signals are events, but hard coded into the object and don't rely on strings like other events and `eventables`

Requires

module:base
module:signals
module:base/logger

Classes

Signal

Type Definitions

SignalOptions

Properties:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
`memorize`	boolean	<optional>	If Signal should keep record of previously dispatched parameters and automatically execute listener. Defaults to `false`
`params`	array	<optional>	Default parameters passed to listener during `Signal.raise`/`Signal.fire`/`Signal.trigger` and SignalBinding.execute. (curried parameters). Defaults to `null`
`context`	object	<optional>	When provided the signal will be raised in the context of this object. Defaults to `this` - the signal host

Example

signals:{
    opened: null,
    twisted: { memorize:true },
    applied: { memorize: false, params:[one, two] }
}

// Setting the context initially can be a hassle, so this also supports a function that returns a hash

signals: function(){
    return {
    opened: null,
    twisted: { memorize:true },
    applied: { memorize: false, params:[one, two] },
    reversed: {context: someOtherRuntimeObject}
    };
}
