SharedContent.AddLoadListener

Adding load event listeners

You can use the addLoadListener function on the sharedContent propery of the Kongregate API object to register an event listener which will be triggered when shared content of the specified type is loaded by the user. It accepts the following arguments:

Name	Type	Description
`type`	String	Type of content to listen for
`callback`	Function	Function to call when a shared content load request has been made

The callback method will be passed a single object with the following attributes:

Name	Type	Description
`id`	Integer	Unique ID of the created shared content
`name`	String	Name of the shared content
`permalink`	String	Link to the shared content
`content`	String	The content itself
`label`	String	The label for the shared content

📘
Note
It is important to register the listener as soon as possible after the API is loaded. This will allow you to capture a load event that was generated by the initial page load via URL parameters.

Example: Loading shared content with Contraption as the content type

kongregate.sharedContent.addLoadListener("Contraption", onContraptionLoad);
kongregate.services.connect();

function onContraptionLoad(params:Object):void {
  var id:Number        = params.id;
  var name:String      = params.name;
  var permalink:String = params.permalink;
  var content:String   = params.content;
  var label:String     = params.label;

  trace("Contraption " + id + " [" + label + "] loaded: " + content);
}

kongregate.sharedContent.addLoadListener("Contraption", onContraptionLoad);

function onContraptionLoad(params) {
  var id = params.id;
  var name = params.name;
  var permalink = params.permalink;
  var content = params.content;
  var label = params.label;

  console.log("Contraption " + id + " [" + label + "] loaded: " + content);
}
