Using angular-pubsub

angular-pubsub provides 3 methods :

• subscribe()
• publish()
• unsubscribe()

Subscribing to a topic

The client (controller in most cases) which needs to receive messages has to subscribe to a specific topic:

PubSub.subscribe(topic, callback);

• topic - {string} - Name of the topic/event (BUS name)
• callback - {function} - Function to call when receiving a message

Publishing into a topic

PubSub.publish(topic, args);

• args - {*} - Optional one or more arguments which will be passed onto the subscribed clients

Unsubscribing from a topic

When the client does not need to receive messages anymore, and to avoid memory leaks, it is recommended to unsubscribe.

PubSub.unsubscribe(topic, callbackToUnregister);

• callbackToUnregister - {function} - Registered callback
