good-listener

A more versatile way of adding & removing event listeners.

Install

You can get it on npm.

npm install good-listener --save

Or bower, too.

If you're not into package management, just download a ZIP file.

Setup

Node (Browserify)

var listen = require('good-listener');

Browser (Standalone)

<script src="dist/good-listener.js"></script>

Usage

Add an event listener

By passing a string selector (see full demo).

listen('.btn', 'click', function(e) {
    console.log(e);
});

Or by passing a HTML element (see full demo).

var logo = document.getElementById('logo');
 
listen(logo, 'click', function(e) {
    console.log(e);
});

Or by passing a list of HTML elements (see full demo).

var anchors = document.querySelectorAll('a');
 
listen(anchors, 'click', function(e) {
    console.log(e);
});

Remove an event listener

By calling the destroy function that returned from previous operation (see full demo).

var listener = listen('.btn', 'click', function(e) {
    console.log(e);
});
 
listener.destroy();
