aurelia-typing-trigger

This plugin simply allows you to add typing-trigger to elements in Aurelia, so that they dispatch CustomEvents named 'typing' when keypresses are generated for typing characters (like a-zA-Z0-9 and punctuation).

Using the plugin

Install the plugin and configure the plugin in main.js

$ jspm install npm:aurelia-typing-trigger

.plugin('aurelia-typing-trigger')

Use it in your html:

<input type="text" typing-trigger typing="triggerWhenTyping()" />

Options

The only option for this Custom Attribute is adding a debounce time in microseconds. The default is 500ms (0.5 seconds)

<!-- Set the timeout to 1000ms (1 second) -->

<input type="text" typing-trigger="1000" typing="triggerWhenTyping()" />

Building The Code

To build the code, follow these steps.

Ensure that NodeJS is installed. This provides the platform on which the build tooling runs.
From the project folder, execute the following command:

npm install

Ensure that Gulp is installed. If you need to install it, use the following command:

npm install -g gulp

To build the code, you can now run:

gulp build

You will find the compiled code in the dist folder, available in three module formats: AMD, CommonJS and ES6.
See gulpfile.js for other tasks related to generating the docs and linting.

Running The Tests

To run the unit tests, first ensure that you have followed the steps above in order to install all dependencies and successfully build the library. Once you have done that, proceed with these additional steps:

Ensure that the Karma CLI is installed. If you need to install it, use the following command:

npm install -g karma-cli

Ensure that jspm is installed. If you need to install it, use the following commnand:

npm install -g jspm

Install the client-side dependencies with jspm:

jspm install

You can now run the tests with this command:

karma start
