Middleware + Event Emitter for node.js

Build Status codecov

NPM

  1. async middlewares
  2. async/sync event listeners
  3. support priority for both middlewares and event listeners

Environment

Every ES5 compliant environment + Promise Api & Symbol.iterator. In case of unsupported environments you can use appropriate polyfill(s).

Installation

Using yarn:

yarn add middlemitter

Using npm:

npm install middlemitter

Usage

Importing

import { MiddlEmitter } from 'middlemitter';

const emitter = new MiddlEmitter();

Add/Remove listener on test event

const listener = emitter.on('test', (a,b,c) => {
  console.log('>>', a, b, c);
});

emitter.off('test', listener);

Add listener on test event with priority

emitter.on('test', (a,b,c) => {
  console.log('second');
}, 10);

emitter.on('test', (a,b,c) => {
  console.log('first');
}, 11);

Emit test event Returns promise that resolves when all listeners executed.

emitter.emit('test', 'a', 'b', 'c');

Use middleware on test event

emitter.use('test', async (params) => {
   const [a,b,c] = params;
   // Mutate params array
   params[0] = `(${a})`;
   params[1] = `(${b})`;
   params[2] = `(${c})`;
   // Await for other middleware or just skip them all 
   await next();
});

emitter.on('test', (a,b,c) => {
  // This will log (a)(b)(c)
  console.log(a,b,c);
});

emitter.emit('test', 'a', 'b', 'c');

Use middleware on test event with specific priority

emitter.use('test', async (params) => {
   const [a,b,c] = params;
   // Mutate params array
   params[0] = `(${a})`;
   params[1] = `(${b})`;
   params[2] = `(${c})`;
   // Await for other middleware or just skip them all 
   await next();
}, 10);

emitter.use('test', async (params) => {
   const [a,b,c] = params;
   // Mutate params array
   params[0] = `{${a}}`;
   params[1] = `{${b}}`;
   params[2] = `{${c}}`;
   // Await for other middleware or just skip them all 
   await next();
}, 11);

emitter.on('test', (a,b,c) => {
  // This will log ({a})({b})({c})
  console.log(a,b,c);
});

emitter.emit('test', 'a', 'b', 'c');

Add middleware on test event at once

emitter.use(
  'test',
  async (params, next) => {
    const [a,b,c] = params;
    // Mutate params array
    params[0] = `{${a}}`;
    params[1] = `{${b}}`;
    params[2] = `{${c}}`;
    await next();
  },
  async (params, next) => {
    const [a,b,c] = params;
    // Mutate params array
    params[0] = `(${a})`;
    params[1] = `(${b})`;
    params[2] = `(${c})`;
    await next();
  },
  10 // priority optional, default: 0
);

emitter.on('test', (a,b,c) => {
  // This will log ({a})({b})({c})
  console.log(a,b,c);
});

emitter.emit('test', 'a', 'b', 'c');

Async listeners

const delay = (ms) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    setTimeout(() => { resolve(); }, ms);
  });

emitter.on('test', async (a,b,c) => {
  await delay(1000);
  console.log('first');
});

emitter.on('test', (a,b,c) => {
  console.log('second, just after 1000 ms delay');
});
