Baton provides a dispatcher that can be used to register function that will be called when some events occurr. At this moment Baton emits four types of events:

  • onNavbarReady: dispatched when the navbar is fully rendered

  • onMenuReady: dispatched when the menu is fully rendered (probably the last event fired, since the menu contents are retrieves async)

  • onTabsReady: dispatched when the changeform tabs are fully

  • onTabChanged: dispatched when the current changeform tab is changed

  • onMenuError: dispatched if the request sent to retrieve menu contents fails

  • onReady: dispatched when Baton js has finished its sync job

In order to use them just override the baton admin/base_site.html template and register your listeners before calling Baton.init, i.e.

<!-- ... -->
<script>
    (function ($, undefined) {
        // init listeners
        Baton.Dispatcher.register('onReady', function () { console.log('BATON IS READY') })
        Baton.Dispatcher.register('onMenuReady', function () { console.log('BATON MENU IS READY') })
        Baton.Dispatcher.register('onNavbarReady', function () { console.log('BATON NAVBAR IS READY') })
        // end listeners
    })(jQuery, undefined)
</script>
<script src="{% static 'baton/js_snippets/init_baton.js' %}"></script>
