Kony Listener API

The Kony Listener API enables application developers to create, subscribe, and broadcast events between components. By using the Kony Listener APIs, developers can enable communication and pass data between components such as Quantum Component-Angular Component, Angular Component-Angular Component, or Quantum Component-Quantum Component.

The Kony Listener API uses the kony.listener Namespace and has the following API elements.

Function	Description
kony.listener.broadcast	Broadcasts the data to the specified event.
kony.listener.create	Creates an event.
kony.listener.destroy	Destroys the specified event.
kony.listener.subscribe	Subscribe to the specified event.
kony.listener.unsubscribe	Unsubscribe from the specified subscriptions.

 

To create a new event, use the kony.listener.create API. Use the kony.listener.subscribe API to subscribe to a specific event of a component. By using the kony.listener.broadcast API, you can broadcast an event to other Components or Forms. To stop receiving broadcasts from subscribed events, use the kony.listener.unsubscribe API. Use the kony.listener.destroy API to unsubscribe from all the subscriptions of the specific event (if there are any).
