Adds an event listener to an element with the ability to use event delegation.
|
|
|
|
Use `EventTarget.addEventListener()` to add an event listener to an element. If there is a `target` property supplied to the options object, ensure the event target matches the target specified and then invoke the callback by supplying the correct `this` context.
|
|
Returns a reference to the custom delegator function, in order to be possible to use with [`off`](#off).
|
|
Omit `opts` to default to non-delegation behavior and event bubbling.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const on = (el, evt, fn, opts = {}) => {
|
|
const delegatorFn = e => e.target.matches(opts.target) && fn.call(e.target, e);
|
|
el.addEventListener(evt, opts.target ? delegatorFn : fn, opts.options || false);
|
|
if (opts.target) return delegatorFn;
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const fn = () => console.log('!');
|
|
on(document.body, 'click', fn); // logs '!' upon clicking the body
|
|
on(document.body, 'click', fn, { target: 'p' }); // logs '!' upon clicking a `p` element child of the body
|
|
on(document.body, 'click', fn, { options: true }); // use capturing instead of bubbling
|
|
```
