@ -15,3 +15,49 @@ Speaker.speak(...args)
Speaker.silence(callback)
// Removes a given callback
```
## Example
A simple example:
```js
const speaker = new Speaker(true /* run callbacks immediately */)
speaker.listen(value => console.log(value))
speaker.listen(value => console.warn(value))
speaker.speak("This will be logged twice")
console.log("This message will appear last")
```
A slightly more convoluted example:
```js
import Speaker from '/speaker.js'
// A new message that schedules messages as microtasks
const speaker = new Speaker()
// A callback that calls messages as functions
speaker.listen(fn => fn())
// A shorthand wrapper around the speaker
const defer = fn => speaker.speak(fn)
// Defer a function to be called in a microtask
defer(() => console.log("This message will appear second"))
console.log("This message will appear first")
// Defer another function to be called in a microtask
defer(() => console.log("This message will appear third"))
// Note: A single speaker will use a single microtask even
// for multiple messages.
defer(() => {
// You can continue pushing messages inside the callback;
// they will be processed within the same microtask.
defer(() => console.log("This message will appear last"))
})
```
