An EventEmitter that isolates the emitter from errors in handlers
npm install @metamask/safe-event-emitterAn EventEmitter that isolates the emitter from errors in handlers. If an error is thrown in a handler it is caught and re-thrown inside of a setTimeout so as to not interrupt the emitter's code flow.
The API is the same as a core EventEmitter.
``bash`
$ yarn add '@metamask/safe-event-emitter'
`js
import SafeEventEmitter from '@metamask/safe-event-emitter';
const ee = new SafeEventEmitter();
ee.on('boom', () => { throw new Error(); });
ee.emit('boom'); // No error here
// Error is thrown after setTimeout
`
The project follows the same release process as the other libraries in the MetaMask organization:
1. Create a release branch
- For a typical release, this would be based on master1.x
- To update an older maintained major version, base the release branch on the major version branch (e.g. )yarn version --minor --no-git-tag-version
2. Update the changelog
3. Update version in package.json file (e.g. )
4. Create a pull request targeting the base branch (e.g. master or 1.x)
5. Code review and QA
6. Once approved, the PR is squashed & merged
7. The commit on the base branch is tagged
8. The tag can be published as needed
