$on ( type in module ng )

Listens on events of a given type. See $emit for discussion of event life cycle.

The event listener function format is: function(event, args...) . The event object passed into the listener has the following attributes:

• targetScope - {Scope} : the scope on which the event was $emit -ed or $broadcast -ed.
• currentScope - {Scope} : the current scope which is handling the event.
• name - {string} : Name of the event.
• stopPropagation - {function=} : calling stopPropagation function will cancel further event propagation (available only for events that were $emit -ed).
• preventDefault - {function} : calling preventDefault sets defaultPrevented flag to true.
• defaultPrevented - {boolean} : true if preventDefault was called.
