/** * Creates an object which can listen for and emit events. * This is similar to the EventEmitter API in Node's standard library, but it has a few differences. * The goal is to allow multiple modules to attach arbitrary listeners to the same emitter, without * letting the modules know about each other at all. * 1. It has no special keys like `error` and `newListener`, which would allow modules to detect when * another module throws an error or registers a listener. * 2. It calls listener functions without any `this` value. (`EventEmitter` calls listeners with a * `this` value of the emitter instance, which would give listeners access to other listeners.) * @returns {SafeEmitter} An emitter */ module.exports = () => { const listeners = Object.create(null);
