# throttle-debounce
|
|
|
|
|
|
[![Build Status][ci-img]][ci]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Throttle/debounce your functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This module is the same as [jquery-throttle-debounce][jquery-throttle-debounce] ([with some differences](#differences-with-original-module)), but it’s transferred to CommonJS so it can be easily used with tools like Browserify or Webpack.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
npm install throttle-debounce --save
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
|
var throttle = require('throttle-debounce/throttle');
|
|
|
var debounce = require('throttle-debounce/debounce');
|
|
|
|
|
|
throttle(300, function () {
|
|
|
// Throttled function
|
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
|
|
debounce(300, function () {
|
|
|
// Debounced function
|
|
|
});
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
|
|
### throttle(delay, noTrailing, callback, debounceMode)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: `Function`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Throttle execution of a function. Especially useful for rate limiting execution of handlers on events like resize and scroll.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### delay
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: `Number`
|
|
|
|
|
|
A zero-or-greater delay in milliseconds. For event callbacks, values around 100 or 250 (or even higher) are most useful.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### noTrailing
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optional, defaults to false. If noTrailing is true, callback will only execute every `delay` milliseconds while the throttled-function is being called. If noTrailing is false or unspecified, callback will be executed one final time after the last throttled-function call. (After the throttled-function has not been called for `delay` milliseconds, the internal counter is reset)
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### callback
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: `Function`
|
|
|
|
|
|
A function to be executed after delay milliseconds. The `this` context and all arguments are passed through, as-is, to `callback` when the throttled-function is executed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### debounceMode
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
|
|
If `debounceMode` is true (at begin), schedule `clear` to execute after `delay` ms. If `debounceMode` is false (at end), schedule `callback` to execute after `delay` ms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### debounce(delay, atBegin, callback)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: `Function`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debounce execution of a function. Debouncing, unlike throttling, guarantees that a function is only executed a single time, either at the very beginning of a series of calls, or at the very end.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### delay
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: `Number`
|
|
|
|
|
|
A zero-or-greater delay in milliseconds. For event callbacks, values around 100 or 250 (or even higher) are most useful.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### atBegin
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optional, defaults to false. If `atBegin` is false or unspecified, callback will only be executed `delay` milliseconds after the last debounced-function call. If `atBegin` is true, callback will be executed only at the first debounced-function call. (After the throttled-function has not been called for `delay` milliseconds, the internal counter is reset).
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### callback
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: `Function`
|
|
|
|
|
|
A function to be executed after delay milliseconds. The `this` context and all arguments are passed through, as-is, to `callback` when the debounced-function is executed.

## Differences with original module
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Dependancy on jQuery is removed, so if you rely on GUIDs set by jQuery, plan accordingly
|
|
|
* There is no standalone version available, so don’t rely on `$.throttle` and `$.debounce` to be available
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Browser support
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tested in IE8+ and all modern browsers.
