MessageKit

Decoupled message sending system meant as a replacement for SendMessage and its variants. MessageKit comes with the ability to send zero, one or two parameter messages. The keys for messages are ints. Most message systems use strings but it has been my experience that folks are less likely to define their keys as consts when dealing with strings so it ends up creating hard to debug issues when a string is mistyped. By using ints for keys the hope is that MessageKit users will define their keys as const ints so that they get the benefit of code completion and end up with easy to read code.

Usage

• define your event types as const ints
• to add an event listener for a zero parameter event call MessageKit.addObserver( eventType, handler )
• post events by calling MessageKit.post( eventType )
• don't forget to remove your event listeners with MessageKit.removeObserver( handler )!

One or Two Parameter Events

When using events with parameters you need to specifiy the paramter types so that everything remains strongly typed.

• to add an event listener for a one parameter event call MessageKit<Transform>.addObserver( eventType, handler ) (notice that the parameter type is Transform for this example)
• post events by calling MessageKit<Transform>.post( eventType, someTransform )
• don't forget to remove your event listeners with MessageKit<Transform>.removeObserver( handler )!
