Usage

Complete API Documentation.

// Importer
var EventEmitterGrouped = require('event-emitter-grouped')

// Instantiate a new instance
var emitter = new EventEmitterGrouped()

// Bind an asynchronous event
emitter.on('hello', function (next) {
	console.log('\tasync started')
	setTimeout(function () {
		console.log('\tasync finished')
		next()
	}, 1000)
})

// Bind a synchronous event
emitter.on('hello', function () {
	console.log('\tsync started and finished')
})

// Bind a prioritized event
function vipListener () {
	console.log('\tvip started and finished')
}
vipListener.priority = 1
emitter.on('hello', vipListener)

// Emit the events in serial (one after the other in a waiting fashion)
console.log('hello in serial started')
emitter.emitSerial('hello', function (err) {
	console.log('hello in serial finished')

	// Emit the events in parallel (all at once)
	console.log('hello in parallel started')
	emitter.emitParallel('hello', function (err) {
		console.log('hello in parallel finished')
	})
})

/* Outputs:
