"Liferay.fire" what is it and how to use it?

[Prakash Khanchandani, modificado hace 9 años.]

Can anybody give me a short tutorial or point me in the right direction where I can understand how

Liferay.fire

actually works and in which scenarios can I use it.

I have used it for IPC but other than that I can't seem to understand how to liferay uses it say for example in document library for move, check-in, check-out etc.

Thanks for the help.

Liferay has a legacy, browser side IPC system using Liferay.fire() and Liferay.on(). You register a listener for an event using "on" and then you can trigger using "fire". It only has current page scope so you cannot go to another page or anything like that. Typically you'll do this for a lightweight IPC on a page, but then each portlet must be able to respond to the event either by making a change or invoking ajax back to it's server side to get some data.

There are plenty of examples in the OOTB portlets, so have at it
