"Are the emitters asynchronous?"

[timsim00]

No. If you're interested in doing that, use something like nanotick to batch events and ensure they run asynchronously.

I'm probably misunderstanding something here, but I have a timing issue that sure seems async when calling emitter.emit.

module.exports = function view (state, emit, props = {}) {
  var id = state.params.msgId
  // emit('autopilot:edit-message', id)
  let {item} = state.autopilot.findItemById(id)
  state.autopilot.current = item

The listener for 'edit-message' only has the two lines that follow //emit... Calling emit instead of the two lines results in an error downstream because state.autopilot.current isn't set yet.

Events are async, but the logger in choo-devtools isn't because we can't get timing information synchronously. Hope that makes sense!

I think it's because I'm loading this view by refreshing the page. App load behavior seems to be a bit different than just swapping out a view. Logs say there's no listener but it's still running the listener...three times, in fact. Maybe my app structure isn't setup quite right for this scenario.

Bit of a hack but this worked:

app store:

  emitter.on('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
    state.app.DOMContentLoaded = true

view

if (state.app.DOMContentLoaded) {
    do everything as normal
} else {
  return html``
}

I'm not sure why the view is rendering before DOMContentLoaded. Only have to do this on pages where the query param affects what's being displayed ..the route is .../something/:id
