`_getFullType`

(

type

)

String private

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:564

Returns the fully qualified type, given a short type string. That is, returns "foo:bar" when given "bar" if "foo" is the configured prefix. NOTE: This method, unlike _getType, does no checking of the value passed in, and is designed to be used with the low level _publish() method, for critical path implementations which need to fast-track publish for performance reasons.

Parameters:

type String

The short type to prefix

Returns:

String:

The prefixed type, if a prefix is set, otherwise the type passed in

`_getType`

() private

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:36

If the instance has a prefix attribute and the event type is not prefixed, the instance prefix is applied to the supplied type.

`_hasPotentialSubscribers`

(

fullType

)

Boolean private

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-facade.js:643

Parameters:

fullType String

The fully prefixed type name

Returns:

Boolean:

Whether the event has potential subscribers or not

`_mod`

(

module

)

Object private

Provided by the intl module.

Defined in yui3/src/intl/js/Intl.js:22

Private method to retrieve the language hash for a given module.

Parameters:

module String

The name of the module

Returns:

Object:

The hash of localized resources for the module, keyed by BCP language tag

`_monitor`

(

what
eventType
o

)

private

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:636

This is the entry point for the event monitoring system. You can monitor 'attach', 'detach', 'fire', and 'publish'. When configured, these events generate an event. click -> click_attach, click_detach, click_publish -- these can be subscribed to like other events to monitor the event system. Inividual published events can have monitoring turned on or off (publish can't be turned off before it it published) by setting the events 'monitor' config.

Parameters:

what String

'attach', 'detach', 'fire', or 'publish'
eventType String | CustomEvent

The prefixed name of the event being monitored, or the CustomEvent object.
o Object

Information about the event interaction, such as fire() args, subscription category, publish config

`_parseType`

() private

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:52

Returns an array with the detach key (if provided), and the prefixed event name from _getType Y.on('detachcategory| menu:click', fn)

`_publish`

(

fullType
etOpts
ceOpts

)

CustomEvent private

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:588

The low level event publish implementation. It expects all the massaging to have been done outside of this method. e.g. the <code>type</code> to <code>fullType</code> conversion. It's designed to be a fast path publish, which can be used by critical code paths to improve performance.

Parameters:

fullType String

The prefixed type of the event to publish.
etOpts Object

The EventTarget specific configuration to mix into the published event.
ceOpts Object

The publish specific configuration to mix into the published event.

Returns:

CustomEvent:

The published event. If called without <code>etOpts</code> or <code>ceOpts</code>, this will be the default <code>CustomEvent</code> instance, and can be configured independently.

`add`

`addTarget`

(

o

)

chainable

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-facade.js:496

Registers another EventTarget as a bubble target. Bubble order is determined by the order registered. Multiple targets can be specified. Events can only bubble if emitFacade is true. Included in the event-custom-complex submodule.

Parameters:

`after`

(

type
fn
[context]
[arg*]

)

EventHandle

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:812

Subscribe to a custom event hosted by this object. The supplied callback will execute after any listeners add via the subscribe method, and after the default function, if configured for the event, has executed.

Parameters:

type String

The name of the event
fn Function

The callback to execute in response to the event
[context] Object optional

Override <code>this</code> object in callback
[arg*] Any optional

0..n additional arguments to supply to the subscriber

Returns:

EventHandle:

A subscription handle capable of detaching the subscription

`before`

()

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:849

Executes the callback before a DOM event, custom event or method. If the first argument is a function, it is assumed the target is a method. For DOM and custom events, this is an alias for Y.on. For DOM and custom events: type, callback, context, 0-n arguments For methods: callback, object (method host), methodName, context, 0-n arguments

Returns:

detach handle

`bubble`

(

evt

)

Boolean

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-facade.js:554

Propagate an event. Requires the event-custom-complex module.

Parameters:

evt CustomEvent

the custom event to propagate

Returns:

Boolean:

the aggregated return value from Event.Custom.fire

`detach`

(

type
fn
context

)

EventTarget

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:356

Detach one or more listeners the from the specified event

Parameters:

type String | Object

Either the handle to the subscriber or the type of event. If the type is not specified, it will attempt to remove the listener from all hosted events.
fn Function

The subscribed function to unsubscribe, if not supplied, all subscribers will be removed.
context Object

The custom object passed to subscribe. This is optional, but if supplied will be used to disambiguate multiple listeners that are the same (e.g., you subscribe many object using a function that lives on the prototype)

Returns:

EventTarget:

the host

`detachAll`

(

type

)

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:479

Removes all listeners from the specified event. If the event type is not specified, all listeners from all hosted custom events will be removed.

Parameters:

type String

The type, or name of the event

`fire`

(

type
arguments

)

Boolean

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:673

Fire a custom event by name. The callback functions will be executed from the context specified when the event was created, and with the following parameters. The first argument is the event type, and any additional arguments are passed to the listeners as parameters. If the first of these is an object literal, and the event is configured to emit an event facade, that object is mixed into the event facade and the facade is provided in place of the original object. If the custom event object hasn't been created, then the event hasn't been published and it has no subscribers. For performance sake, we immediate exit in this case. This means the event won't bubble, so if the intention is that a bubble target be notified, the event must be published on this object first.

Parameters:

type String | Object

The type of the event, or an object that contains a 'type' property.
arguments Object

an arbitrary set of parameters to pass to the handler. If the first of these is an object literal and the event is configured to emit an event facade, the event facade will replace that parameter after the properties the object literal contains are copied to the event facade.

Returns:

Boolean:

True if the whole lifecycle of the event went through, false if at any point the event propagation was halted.

Available since 3.1.0

Returns the language among those available that best matches the preferred language list, using the Lookup algorithm of BCP 47. If none of the available languages meets the user's preferences, then "" is returned. Extended language ranges are not supported.

Parameters:

`on`

(

type
fn
[context]
[arg*]

)

EventHandle

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:188

Subscribe a callback function to a custom event fired by this object or from an object that bubbles its events to this object. <pre><code> this.on("change", this._onChange, this); </code></pre> Callback functions for events published with <code>emitFacade = true</code> will receive an <code>EventFacade</code> as the first argument (typically named "e"). These callbacks can then call <code>e.preventDefault()</code> to disable the behavior published to that event's <code>defaultFn</code>. See the <code>EventFacade</code> API for all available properties and methods. Subscribers to non-<code>emitFacade</code> events will receive the arguments passed to <code>fire()</code> after the event name. To subscribe to multiple events at once, pass an object as the first argument, where the key:value pairs correspond to the eventName:callback. <pre><code> this.on({ "attrChange" : this._onAttrChange, "change" : this._onChange }); </code></pre> You can also pass an array of event names as the first argument to subscribe to all listed events with the same callback. <pre><code> this.on([ "change", "attrChange" ], this._onChange); </code></pre> Returning <code>false</code> from a callback is supported as an alternative to calling <code>e.preventDefault(); e.stopPropagation();</code>. However, it is recommended to use the event methods whenever possible.

Parameters:

type String

The name of the event
fn Function

The callback to execute in response to the event
