A straight forward EventEmitter implemented in Javascript using ES6

es6-eventemitter.js

let isFunction = function(obj) {
    return typeof obj == 'function' || false;
};

class EventEmitter {
  constructor() {
    this.listeners = new Map();
  }
  addListener(label, callback) {
    this.listeners.has(label) || this.listeners.set(label, []);
    this.listeners.get(label).push(callback);
  }

  removeListener(label, callback) {
      let listeners = this.listeners.get(label),
          index;
      
      if (listeners && listeners.length) {
          index = listeners.reduce((i, listener, index) => {
              return (isFunction(listener) && listener === callback) ?
                  i = index :
                  i;
          }, -1);
          
          if (index > -1) {
              listeners.splice(index, 1);
              this.listeners.set(label, listeners);
              return true;
          }
      }
      return false;
  }
  emit(label, ...args) {
      let listeners = this.listeners.get(label);
      
      if (listeners && listeners.length) {
          listeners.forEach((listener) => {
              listener(...args); 
          });
          return true;
      }
      return false;
  }
}

class Observer {
  constructor(id, subject) {
    this.id = id;
    this.subject = subject;
    this.subject.addListener("change", (data) => this.onChange(data));
  }
  onChange(data) {
    console.log(`(${this.id}) notified of change:`, data);
  }
}

let observable = new EventEmitter();
let [observer1, observer2] = [
  new Observer(1, observable),
  new Observer(2, observable)
];

observable.emit("change", { a: 1 });

Read your article, it was succinct and to the point. Thank you dude

What license, if any, is this released under please?

I want to ask how you can compare function inside the reduce. Can I use anonymous function with addListerner or removeListerner ?

 listeners.splice(index, 1);
//fyi, this line below is useless as the above line mutates the array in place
 this.listeners.set(label, listeners);
