bower minivents#*   invalid-meta The "main" field cannot contain minified files
bower minivents#*   mismatch Version declared in the json (2.0.1) is different than the resolved one (2.0.2)

version field now deprecated in bower, you can remove it. Also, you have bower.json and .bower.json files, is it really matters?

Emit calls the callback of an event in reverse order of which they were added.
this an fix fixed by using a for loop instead of a while loop in the emit method.

Which is more desirable functionality? Personally I use a mediator to decide when things should happen and don' functionality on the order in which I declare events.

Would the switch be something people want to see?

Sorry, saw your library and just had to make it smaller (no offence).
Feel free to use it, I re-wrote most of the code, and improved the emit api.

Just for the minification of minivents.js - it's not great for contributors to not be able to run a build script.

Looks great - I've been looking for a lightweight events object for some time.

My only barrier to using minivents is that my typical use-case for events would be to mixin an event to my existing object rather than create a dedicated object.

Minievents might have greater appeal if you considered that use as well!

(and if I've missed something and this is actually easy to do, please let me know!)

Thanks!

I have some events I'd like to only have bound one time.

I'm imagining you're intending for this to be small library, so not sure where this fits into your design goals.

I wouldn't mind extending it myself, only that's not an option because the events object is hidden inside the Events constructor.

If I were to use .off() before calling .on() so as to prevent adding the event handler multiple times I could accidentally remove events I needed to hold onto.

In a current project, I am using jspm as my package manager. It allows me to install minivents as a dependency by doing:

jspm install minivents=github:allouis/minivents

Sweet! Except...

jspm expects that the libs it installs track releases using Semantic Versioning. This means that v1.1.2 < v1.1.7 < v1.2.0

The latest release for this lovely project is v1.1.7, which is stable. However, there also exists a release v1.2.0 from Feb 26 2014 -- which is broken. So this means that when I install this project as a dependency, I get the old and busted version :(

Could you kindly delete that version?

Workaround

Just in case someone else has this same issue, here's the workaround until its fixed:

jspm install minivents=github:allouis/[email protected]

+1 for the callbacks of events being asynchronous

Hi,
I've found a bug when you register multiple callbacks to an event, then emit the event, and one of the callback unregister himself for this event, resulting in skipping the next callback.

I've forked your repo and fixed it.
Thanks

It assumes a module.exports to publish the public api.

Do you plan on having support for other environments, e.g. browser global or AMD?

Thanks for listening

It should be possible to send arbitrary arguments with the event. Eg

foo.on('myEvent', (arg1, arg2) => {
  ...
});
...
foo.emit('myEvent', arg1, arg2);

Hello,

I thought this code will launch two alert windows with values 1 and 2 respectively:

var sandbox = new Events();
sandbox.on("event", function(){
    alert(1)
});

var another= new Events();
another.on("event", function(){
    alert(2)
}, sandbox);

sandbox.emit("event");

I thought it'll be similar to Backbone listenTo

Here is my plunkr demo.
Could you please provide more details for what context could be used ?

I've found that an Events instance could not trigger an event, that will trigger another event on the same Events instance.

The solution can be fixed by declaring variables list, j, i locally in .off and .emit
I've forked your repo and fixed the bug.

Do you want a merge request?

off method sets value of event object to undefined rather than removing it from the array using Splice, currently throws an error when off is used with a second parameter and then that event is triggered. Global off's work fine. eg sandbox.off("eventname")

could you add a bowed support ?
I tried to add by myself the bower.json, but i can't contribute :s
`{
"name": "minivents",
"version": "1.1.6",
"description": "Tiny eventing for javascript",

"main": "minivents.js",

"ignore": [
"*/.",
"node_modules",
"bower_components",
"test"
],
"dependencies": {},
"devDependencies": {}
}`

I am evaluating this library for use in an existing project. I want to replace the current event system with this one. Support for trigger would be a great benefit since that is what the current event provider uses.

Is it possible to have it as an alias to emit? This would allow minievents to be a simple drop in replacements for cases where one does not need a full blown events provider.

Thanks for listening.
