从事件回调中引用包含骨干视图？

Question

I am using RequireJS and Backbone and listening to a collection 's add event using listenTo . I cannot figure out how to reference this as the instance of the view I am in, in this case GroupView .

define([
    'underscore',
    'backbone',
    'handlebars',
    ...
    ...
    ], function(_,Backbone,Handlebars,...){
    ...
    ...
    var GroupsView = Backbone.View.extend({
        el: "#current-item",

        collection: Groups,
        model: Group,

        groupTemplate: Handlebars.compile(GroupTemplate),

        events: {
            "click #add-group"              : "addGroupClicked",
        },

        initialize: function(){
            this.listenTo(Groups,'add',this.addGroup,this);
        },

        addGroup: function(group){
            //I want a reference to this instance of GroupsView here.
            //if I use this... it references
            //Uncaught TypeError: Object [object global] has no method 'groupTemplate' 
            console.log(this.groupTemplate);
            //Uncaught TypeError: Object [object global] has no method 'redrawGroups' 
-->         console.log(this.redrawGroups);
        },

        redrawGroups: function(){

        },
    ...
    ...

You have:

 this.listenTo(Groups,'add',this.addGroup,this);

With Backbone's on you can provide a 4th argument, as you have done, to set the context. However, that doesn't work with listenTo ; it only takes three arguments (this is because listenTo always sets the context to the listented-to object).

You should be able to get around this by creating a bound addGroup like so:

 this.listenTo(Groups,'add',_(this.addGroup).bind(this));

Alternatively you could simply bind the method to your class with:

_(this).bindAll('addGroup');

which would then let you do just:

 this.listenTo(Groups,'add',this.addGroup);
