LiveEventSource class

Package:
@microsoft/live-share

Broadcasts live share events to all clients and can be received by an LiveEventTarget.

Remarks

Live objects won't typically create an LiveEventSource directly. They will, instead, create an LiveEventTarget class, which can both send & receive events.

Constructors

LiveEventSource<TEvent>(LiveEventScope, string)

Creates a new LiveEventSource instance.

Methods

sendEvent(TEvent)

Broadcasts an event to any listening LiveEventTarget instances.
sendLocalEvent(TEvent)

Same as SendEvent but only sent locally. Useful for events that do not need to be sent as a signal.
