Events

Editor will emit custom DOM events when it performs particular operations, providing the ability to listen for these events and take action on them when they occur, for example starting or completing an edit for a particular row.

The events Editor emits can all be listened for using the on() method. The example below shows how the create event can be listened for:

editor.on( 'create', function ( e, json, data ) {
    alert( 'New row added' );
} );

For further general information about Editor's custom events, please refer to the events manual.
