A tiny event module for Lua.

The event.lua file should be dropped into an existing project and required by it.

Event = require 'event'

Event = require 'event'

e = Event()

e:on('test', function(msg) print(msg) end)

e:dispatch('test', 'hello event')
-- print 'hello event'

Event with table instance

t = {}
function t:onTest(msg)
    print('t onTest' .. msg)
nd

e:on('test_t', t.onTest, t)

e:dispatch('test_t', 'hello event')
-- print 't onTesthello event'

Handle events of type name with callback, instance is an optional argument

Remove callback

Dispatch an event of type name with optional arguments

Clear callbacks of type name, if name is nil, clear all callbacks
