typescript class EventEmitter { private events: Map<string | Symbol, Set<(payload?: any) => void>> = new Map();
on(eventName: string | Symbol, callback: (payload?: any) => void): () => void { if (!this.events.has(eventName)) { this.events.set(eventName, new Set()); } const listeners = this.events.get(eventName)!; listeners.add(callback);
// Return unsubscribe function
return () => {
listeners.delete(callback);
if (listeners.size === 0) {
this.events.delete(eventName);
}
};
}
emit(eventName: string | Symbol, payload?: any): void {
const listeners = this.events.get(eventName);
if (!listeners || listeners.size === 0) {
throw new Error(No listeners for event: ${String(eventName)});
}
for (const listener of listeners) {
listener(payload);
}
}
}
// Usage example: const myEmitter = new EventEmitter();
const unSubscribe = myEmitter.on('event', (payload) => { console.log('an event occurred!!!', payload); });
myEmitter.emit('event', { data: 123 });
unSubscribe();
// After unsubscribe, calling emit will throw an error // myEmitter.emit('event');
In this solution:
- Uses `Map` to store sets of listeners by event name.
- The `on` method adds a listener and returns an unsubscribe function.
- The `emit` method calls all listeners for an event if they exist, otherwise throws an error.
