Sending a MXHR Request

mxhr('/api/foo-bar?param=1')

Binding MIME listeners

Payload will be passed as parameter of the callback function. You can also get access to XHR object inside your callback by this.

mxhr('/api/foo-bar?param=1').listen('application/json', function(payload) {
    console.log('ReadyState: ' + this.readyState);
    console.log('JSON: ' + payload);
}).listen('text/html', function(payload) {
    console.log('HTML: ' + payload);
});

Bind complete event

mxhr('/api/foo-bar?param=1').complete(function() {
    console.log('Complete');
});

Known Issue

Request will be only sent in GET method for now
