# debounce
Useful for implementing behavior that should only happen after a repeated action has completed.
## Installation
$ component install component/debounce
Or in node:
$ npm install debounce
## Example
```jsvar debounce = require('debounce');window.onresize = debounce(resize, 200);
function resize(e) { console.log('height', window.innerHeight); console.log('width', window.innerWidth);}```
To later clear the timer and cancel currently scheduled executions:```window.onresize.clear();```
To execute any pending invocations and reset the timer:```window.onresize.flush();```
Alternately, if using newer syntax:
```jsimport { debounce } from "debounce";```
## API
### debounce(fn, wait, [ immediate || false ])
Creates and returns a new debounced version of the passed function that will postpone its execution until after wait milliseconds have elapsed since the last time it was invoked.
Pass `true` for the `immediate` parameter to cause debounce to trigger the function on the leading edge instead of the trailing edge of the wait interval. Useful in circumstances like preventing accidental double-clicks on a "submit" button from firing a second time.
The debounced function returned has a property 'clear' that is a function that will clear any scheduled future executions of your function.
The debounced function returned has a property 'flush' that is a function that will immediately execute the function if and only if execution is scheduled, and reset the execution timer for subsequent invocations of the debounced function.
