# Mitt
> Tiny 200b functional event emitter / pubsub.
- **Microscopic:** weighs less than 200 bytes gzipped- **Useful:** a wildcard `"*"` event type listens to all events- **Familiar:** same names & ideas as [Node's EventEmitter](https://nodejs.org/api/events.html#events_class_eventemitter)- **Functional:** methods don't rely on `this`- **Great Name:** somehow [mitt](https://npm.im/mitt) wasn't taken
Mitt was made for the browser, but works in any JavaScript runtime. It has no dependencies and supports IE9+.

## Install
This project uses [node](http://nodejs.org) and [npm](https://npmjs.com). Go check them out if you don't have them locally installed.
```sh$ npm install --save mitt```
Then with a module bundler like [rollup](http://rollupjs.org/) or [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/), use as you would anything else:
```javascript// using ES6 modulesimport mitt from 'mitt'
// using CommonJS modulesvar mitt = require('mitt')```
The [UMD](https://github.com/umdjs/umd) build is also available on [unpkg](https://unpkg.com):
```html<script src="https://unpkg.com/mitt/dist/mitt.umd.js"></script>```
You can find the library on `window.mitt`.
## Usage
```jsimport mitt from 'mitt'
const emitter = mitt()
// listen to an eventemitter.on('foo', e => console.log('foo', e) )
// listen to all eventsemitter.on('*', (type, e) => console.log(type, e) )
// fire an eventemitter.emit('foo', { a: 'b' })
// clearing all eventsemitter.all.clear()
// working with handler references:function onFoo() {}emitter.on('foo', onFoo) // listenemitter.off('foo', onFoo) // unlisten```
### Typescript
Set `"strict": true` in your tsconfig.json to get improved type inference for `mitt` instance methods.
```tsimport mitt from 'mitt';
type Events = { foo: string; bar?: number;};
const emitter = mitt<Events>(); // inferred as Emitter<Events>
emitter.on('foo', (e) => {}); // 'e' has inferred type 'string'
emitter.emit('foo', 42); // Error: Argument of type 'number' is not assignable to parameter of type 'string'. (2345)```
Alternatively, you can use the provided `Emitter` type:
```tsimport mitt, { Emitter } from 'mitt';
type Events = { foo: string; bar?: number;};
const emitter: Emitter<Events> = mitt<Events>();```

Returns **Mitt**
### all
A Map of event names to registered handler functions.
### on
Register an event handler for the given type.
#### Parameters
