The Monaco widget provides forwards several events from the JavaScript API as AJAX behavior
events for your convenience. You can use
<p:ajax> to attach a server-side
listener to the event, or the
on[eventname] attributes to attach a client-side
callback. In case you require more fine-tuned control or wish to listen to an event not supported
by this widget, consider using
Monaco editor's client-side API
directly; possibly in combination with a
<p:remoteCommand> or
<pe:remoteCommand> if you need to invoke a client-side listener.
Supported events are:
- blur
- change
- focus
- initialized (after the Monaco editor was rendered)
- keydown
- keyup
- mousedown
- mousemove
- mouseup
- paste
Note that if you value performance, you should avoid adding server-side listeners for frequently occurring events
such as
mousemove etc. In this example, we display a growl message via
PrimeFace's client-side JavaScript API
in the
onstart callback of the AJAX behavior and
return false to cancel
the AJAX request to the server; but you could call a server-side method here if you wanted.
