| 1 iron-signals |
| 2 ============ |
| 3 |
| 4 `iron-signals` provides basic publish-subscribe functionality. |
| 5 |
| 6 Note: avoid using `iron-signals` whenever you can use |
| 7 a controller (parent element) to mediate communication |
| 8 instead. |
| 9 |
| 10 To send a signal, fire a custom event of type `iron-signal`, with |
| 11 a detail object containing `name` and `data` fields. |
| 12 |
| 13 ```javascript |
| 14 this.fire('iron-signal', {name: 'hello', data: null}); |
| 15 ``` |
| 16 |
| 17 To receive a signal, listen for `iron-signal-<name>` event on a |
| 18 `iron-signals` element. |
| 19 |
| 20 ```html |
| 21 <iron-signals on-iron-signal-hello="{{helloSignal}}"> |
| 22 ``` |
| 23 |
| 24 You can fire a signal event from anywhere, and all |
| 25 `iron-signals` elements will receive the event, regardless |
| 26 of where they are in DOM. |
