Event Emitter Pattern in Node Js

AIM:
To demonstrate the event emitter pattern

Objective:
Explanation of event emitter pattern with programme.

Theory:
The EventEmitter is a module that facilitates communication/interaction between objects in Node. EventEmitter is at the core of Node asynchronous event-driven architecture. Many of Node‟s built-in modules inherit from EventEmitter including prominent frameworks like
Express.js. The concept is quite simple: emitter objects emit named events that cause previously registered listeners to be called. So, an emitter object basically has two main features:
 
Emitting name events.
Registering and unregistering listener functions.
 
It‟s kind of like a pub/sub or observer design pattern (though not exactly).
 
Explanation:
The $http.POST() service is used to deliver data to a certain URL and expects the resource at that URL to handle the request. In other words, the
POST method is used to insert new data based on a specified URL and is one of the $http service's shortcut methods.
Create an event emitter instance and register a couple of callbacks

const myEmitter = new EventEmitter();
function c1() {
console.log('an event occurred!');
}
function c2() {
console.log('yet another event occurred!');
}

myEmitter.on('eventOne', c1); // Register for eventOne
myEmitter.on('eventOne', c2); // Register for eventOne

When the event „eventOne‟ is emitted, both the above callbacks should be invoked.
myEmitter.emit('eventOne');
The output in the console will be as follows:
an event occurred!
yet another event occurred!
