Events mapped out completely - cross browsers
Using this powerful little tool will map out for you all Events in any browser you'd wish to execute it on.
npm install map-events --save
const getEventsMap = require('map-events');
const EventsMap = getEventsMap();
a map of all events in the browser in the following format:
{
'OBJECT': [
'EVENT1',
'EVENT2',
'EVENT3'
]
}
const getEventsMap = require('map-events');
const webSocketEventsMap = getEventsMap('WebSocket');
(webSocketEventsMap == {
"WebSocket": [
"open",
"error",
"close",
"message"
] // results in true
});
here's an example of how to register with your own listener to every event that exists on window
!
const windowEventsMap = getEventsMap('window')['window'];
for (let i = 0; i < windowEventsMap.length; i++) {
const event = windowEventsMap[i];
window[event] = (event) => { console.log(event) });
}
filter
(first optional argument)
allows you to pass a string that must exist within the object in order for it to make it to the final result map:
const getEventsMap = require('map-events');
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('*'); // will return a non-filtered map
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('HTML'); // will return a map that only contains objects that contain the string 'HTML' (such as 'HTMLBodyElement')
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('Doc'); // will return a map that only contains objects that contain the string 'Doc' (such as 'Document')
default value: '*'
hasOwnProperty
(second optional argument)
allows you to pass a boolean that indicates whether iterated object must has iterated property as its own property or not:
const getEventsMap = require('map-events');
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('*', true); // will return a map with objects and events properties that are the object's own properties
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('*', false); // will return a map with objects and events properties - whether the properties are the object's own properties or not
default value: true
noEmptyArrays
(third optional argument)
allows you to pass a boolean that indicates whether final result object should contain objects that have zero events or not:
const getEventsMap = require('map-events');
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('*', true, true); // will return a map with objects and events properties only if the object even has any events
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('*', true, false); // will return a map with objects and events properties whether the object has any events or not
default value: false
debug
(fourth optional argument)
allows you to pass a boolean that indicates whether to run module in debug mode or not. debug mode just logs errors in case any are thrown:
const getEventsMap = require('map-events');
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('*', true, true, true); // will run in debug mode
const EventsMap = getEventsMap('*', true, false, false); // will not run in debug mode
default value: false
in addition to this project there is a website that should show the events map of every (os + browser) combination that ever existed. in reality however, it shows most of the existing combinations, but not all of them. the maps were extracted using every existing combination in browserstack, but even in browserstack many automatic combinations have failed. also, the extraction script is not automatic and does not run every time there's a new browser/os. contributing to the JSON could help a lot with maintaining the map and keeping it as updated and as accurate as possible. highly appreciated!
