<nebula-dispatch>

Send and receive action requests between web components.

  • Can be used to implement a unidirectional data flow architecture
  • Uses a standard custom dispatch event to facilitate communication between elements
  • Listens for events on window so sender/receiver can be anywhere in document hierarchy
  • Uses a Promise to allow action handler to resolve or reject the action and notify caller

Installation

$ bower install -S arsnebula/nebula-dispatch

Getting Started

Import the package.

<link rel="import" href="/bower_components/nebula-dispatch/nebula-dispatch.html">

Use the Nebula.DispatchBehavior class extension mixin to add the dispatchAction method to any element. The dispatchAction method returns a Promise that allows the action handler to resolve or reject the action request.

class MyElement extends Nebula.DispatchBehavior(Polymer.Element) {
  static get is() { return 'my-element' }
  ready() {
    super.ready()
    this.dispatchAction('MY_ACTION', {message: 'Hello World'}).then( (message) => {
      console.log('Action completed:', message)
    })
  }
}

Use the Nebula.DispatcherBehavior class extension mixin to automatically receive dispatch events, and invoke action handlers. Methods on the dispatcher element will be automatically invoked if the method name matches the action type.

class MyActionsElement extends Nebula.DispatcherBehavior(Polymer.Element) {
  static get is() { return 'my-actions-element' }

  MY_ACTION(action) {
    try {
      // do stuff with payload
      const payload = action.payload

      action.resolve('Hello, nice to meet you')
    } catch(error) {
      action.reject(error)
    }
  }
}
