raptor-pubsub

Super lightweight module to support EventEmitter-based Pub/Sub communication in the browser and on the server.

Installation

npm install raptor-pubsub --save

Usage

Communicating on the global pub/sub channel

var raptorPubsub = require('raptor-pubsub');

// Subscribe to an event
raptorPubsub.on('someEvent', function(arg) {
  // Do something...
});

// Publish an event
raptorPubsub.emit('someEvent', 'Hello World');

Communicating on named pub/sub channels

// Get a reference to named pub/sub channel
var channel = require('raptor-pubsub').channel('my-channel');

// Subscribe to an event
channel.on('someEvent', function(arg) {
  // Do something...
});

// Publish an event
channel.emit('someEvent', 'Hello World');

// Removing a channel
require('raptor-pubsub').removeChannel('my-channel');

The global pub/sub channel and named channels are simply EventEmitter instances.
