addEventListener

As an alternative to the addEventListener command developed by the IAB, Sourcepoint has implemented its own addEventListener command which can be used as an alternative to the callback functions.

• Stub function
• Command

Stub function

The following stub function ensures that the addEventListener command exists before calling it later on. Insert the following stub function onto your property:

JavaScript

<script type="text/javascript">
  //stub function to check if _sp_.addEventListener is loaded
  function checkExist() {
    console.log("checkExist()")
    var checkIt =  setInterval(function() {
      if (typeof ( window._sp_.addEventListener) == 'function') {
        clearInterval(checkIt);
        setListeners();
      }else{
        console.log('wait for _sp_')
      }
  	}, 100);
  }
  checkExist();	
</script>

Command

Once the stub function is implemented on your property, your organization can call the setListeners function and define all listeners you wish to listen to using the window._sp_.addEventListener command.

JavaScript

<script type="text/javascript">
  function setListeners(){
    window._sp_.addEventListener('onConsentReady',(e)=>{
      console.log("onConsentReady Listener Fired!")
    })
  }
</script>
