backbone.jsHow can I add a checkbox event handler to my Backbone.js application?


To add a checkbox event handler to your Backbone.js application, you can use the listenTo method to bind the event to the view.

Example code

this.listenTo(this.model, 'change:checked', this.handleCheck);

This code will bind the change:checked event to the view, which is triggered when the checkbox value changes. The handleCheck function is then called when the event is triggered.

The handleCheck function can be written to do whatever you want it to do. For example, it could update some data in the model:

handleCheck: function(model, value) {
    model.set('data', value);
}

This code will update the data property of the model when the checkbox value changes.
