class CommentsPresenter extends Transponder.Presenter presenterName: comments modelName: comment index: -> # your code for modifying the DOM # listens for event ujs:comments:index update: -> # listens for even ujs:comments:update...• ujs:comments:index triggers index()• ujs:comments:show triggers show()• ujs:comments:edit triggers edit()• ujs:comments:update triggers update()• ujs:comments:create triggers create()• ujs:comments:destroy triggers destroy()Monday, June 10, 13
