Is there a callback or any other way to execute a function after the jQuery mmenu has plugin finished activation?

Question

I'm firing the plugin on click.

$('#activate_mmenu').on('click', function(){
    $('#menu').mmenu();
});

is there a way to bind another function after the plugin has been activated?

something like this:

$('#activate_mmenu').on('click', function(){
    $('#menu').mmenu(function(){
        alert('plugin is activated!');
    });
});

Answer 1

Mmenu triggers it's own events

$("#nav")
   .mmenu()
   .trigger( "mmenu-created" )
);

more information is available here: http://mmenu.frebsite.nl/events.php

Edit: Had removed the wrong part of the code. You can trigger an event right after the mmenu initialisation.

Answer 2

$('#activate_mmenu').on('click', function(){
    $("#menu")
        .mmenu()
        .on('init', function(){
            console.log('init');
        })
        .trigger( "init" );
});

The documentation doesn't say a ton about custom events, but I got this to work. Then trigger it. As a result, you can simulate callbacks on initialization.

At first I created the custom event and bound it to the .mm namespace as recommended in the docs, but that doesn't appear to be necessary.
