Event Basics

Raising an Event

Providers can raise data events by creating an instance of the wire.data.DataEvent class, specifying the name of the event and then calling the raise method.

new wire.data.DataEvent("myevent").raise();

Listening for an Event

Consumers can listen for events by registering a listener as a function callback with the WireBootstrap Data Event Manager. Use the listen method on wire.data to create a new listener.

wire.data.listen().event("myevent").when((data) => {
   ...   
});

Standard Events

Methods are available on wire.data.DataEvent class for creating standard data events in the system.

DataSelect

The dataselectevent is used primarily by WireBootstrap components to let other components know when a user selects or changes data inside the component.

const dataevent = new wire.data.DataEvent().dataselect();

DataWrite

The datawriteevent is used primarily by WireBootstrap components to let other components know a user has saved data to a data service.

const dataevent = new wire.data.DataEvent().datawrite();
