34cbc729db
Based on https://github.com/ccampbell/mousetrap. Cleaned up to fit our coding standards, pass JSHint, and assume jQuery's fixes where possible (e.g. no need for an addEvent utility, no need for filling e.target, e.which, etc. cross-browser which jQuery.Event already does). Initially all were local functions in the constructor, but to allow some customisations in subclasses moved various methods to the prototype instead and marked with @private. Really, only .register() must be called from the outside. The rest assumes normalisation etc. or might break things if called incorrectly. Change-Id: Ic69a3c70759052094aefbeab623d885f8b118e14

# VisualEditor Code Guidelines
|
|
|
|
We inherit the code structure (about whitespace, naming and comments) conventions
|
|
from MediaWiki:
|
|
* [Manual:Coding conventions/JavaScript#Code structure](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Coding_conventions/JavaScript#Code_structure) on mediawiki.org.
|
|
|
|
## Documentation comments
|
|
|
|
* End sentences in a full stop.
|
|
* Continue sentences belonging to an annotation on the next line, indented with an
|
|
additional space.
|
|
* Types in documentation comments should be separated by a pipe character. Use types
|
|
that are listed in the Types section of this document, otherwise use the identifier
|
|
(full path from the global scope) of the constructor function (e.g. `{ve.dm.BranchNode}`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Annotations
|
|
|
|
We use the following annotations. They should be used in the order as they are described

|

|
|
* @abstract
|
|
* @constructor
|
|
* @extends {Type}
|
|
* @private
|
|
* @static
|
|
* @method
|
|
* @until Text: Optional details.
|
|
* @source
|
|
* @context {Type} The type of the `this` value.
|
|
* @param {Type} varName Optional description.
|
|
* @returns {Type} Optional description.
|
|
|
|
