JavaScript/JQuery: $(window).resize how to fire AFTER the resize is completed?

I'm using JQuery as such:

$(window).r开发者_StackOverflow中文版esize(function() { ... });

However, it appears that if the person manually resizes their browser windows by dragging the window edge to make it larger/smaller, the .resize event above fires multiple times.

Question: How to I call a function AFTER the browser window resize completed (so that the event only fires once)?

Here's a modification of CMS's solution that can be called in multiple places in your code:

var waitForFinalEvent = (function () {
  var timers = {};
  return function (callback, ms, uniqueId) {
    if (!uniqueId) {
      uniqueId = "Don't call this twice without a uniqueId";
    }
    if (timers[uniqueId]) {
      clearTimeout (timers[uniqueId]);
    }
    timers[uniqueId] = setTimeout(callback, ms);
  };
})();

Usage:

$(window).resize(function () {
    waitForFinalEvent(function(){
      alert('Resize...');
      //...
    }, 500, "some unique string");
});

CMS's solution is fine if you only call it once, but if you call it multiple times, e.g. if different parts of your code set up separate callbacks to window resizing, then it will fail b/c they share the timer variable.

With this modification, you supply a unique id for each callback, and those unique IDs are used to keep all the timeout events separate.

I prefer to create an event:

$(window).bind('resizeEnd', function() {
    //do something, window hasn't changed size in 500ms
});

Here is how you create it:

 $(window).resize(function() {
        if(this.resizeTO) clearTimeout(this.resizeTO);
        this.resizeTO = setTimeout(function() {
            $(this).trigger('resizeEnd');
        }, 500);
    });

You could have this in a global javascript file somewhere.

I use the following function for delaying repeated actions, it will work for your case:

var delay = (function(){
  var timer = 0;
  return function(callback, ms){
    clearTimeout (timer);
    timer = setTimeout(callback, ms);
  };
})();

Usage:

$(window).resize(function() {
    delay(function(){
      alert('Resize...');
      //...
    }, 500);
});

The callback function passed to it, will execute only when the last call to delay has been made after the specified amount of time, otherwise a timer will be reset, I find this useful for other purposes like detecting when the user stopped typing, etc...

If you have Underscore.js installed, you could:

$(window).resize(_.debounce(function(){
    alert("Resized");
},500));

Some of the previously mentioned solutions did not work for me, even though they are of more general usage. Alternatively I've found this one that did the job on window resize:

$(window).bind('resize', function(e){
    window.resizeEvt;
    $(window).resize(function(){
        clearTimeout(window.resizeEvt);
        window.resizeEvt = setTimeout(function(){
        //code to do after window is resized
        }, 250);
    });
});

Many thanks to David Walsh, here is a vanilla version of underscore debounce.

Code:

// Returns a function, that, as long as it continues to be invoked, will not
// be triggered. The function will be called after it stops being called for
// N milliseconds. If `immediate` is passed, trigger the function on the
// leading edge, instead of the trailing.
function debounce(func, wait, immediate) {
    var timeout;
    return function() {
        var context = this, args = arguments;
        var later = function() {
            timeout = null;
            if (!immediate) func.apply(context, args);
        };
        var callNow = immediate && !timeout;
        clearTimeout(timeout);
        timeout = setTimeout(later, wait);
        if (callNow) func.apply(context, args);
    };
};

Simple usage:

var myEfficientFn = debounce(function() {
    // All the taxing stuff you do
}, 250);

$(window).on('resize', myEfficientFn);

Actually, as I know, you can't do some actions exactly when resize is off, simply because you don't know future user's actions. But you can assume the time passed between two resize events, so if you wait a little more than this time and no resize is made, you can call your function.
Idea is that we use setTimeout and it's id in order to save or delete it. For example we know that time between two resize events is 500ms, therefore we will wait 750ms.

var a;
$(window).resize(function(){
  clearTimeout(a);
  a = setTimeout(function(){
    // call your function
  },750);
});

Declare globally delayed listener:

var resize_timeout;

$(window).on('resize orientationchange', function(){
    clearTimeout(resize_timeout);

    resize_timeout = setTimeout(function(){
        $(window).trigger('resized');
    }, 250);
});

And below use listeners to resized event as you want:

$(window).on('resized', function(){
    console.log('resized');
});

It works for me. See this solution - https://alvarotrigo.com/blog/firing-resize-event-only-once-when-resizing-is-finished/

var resizeId;
$(window).resize(function() {
    clearTimeout(resizeId);
    resizeId = setTimeout(doneResizing, 500);
});
function doneResizing(){
    //whatever we want to do 
}

Simple jQuery plugin for delayed window resize event.

SYNTAX:

Add new function to resize event

jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( func, delay, id ); // delay and id are optional

Remove the function(by declaring its ID) added earlier

jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( false, id );

Remove all functions

jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( false );

USAGE:

// ADD SOME FUNCTIONS TO RESIZE EVENT
jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( function(){ console.log( 'first event - should run after 0.4 seconds'); }, 400,  'id-first-event' );
jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( function(){ console.log('second event - should run after 1.5 seconds'); }, 1500, 'id-second-event' );
jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( function(){ console.log( 'third event - should run after 3.0 seconds'); }, 3000, 'id-third-event' );

// LETS DELETE THE SECOND ONE
jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( false, 'id-second-event' );

// LETS ADD ONE WITH AUTOGENERATED ID(THIS COULDNT BE DELETED LATER) AND DEFAULT TIMEOUT (500ms)
jQuery(window).resizeDelayed( function(){ console.log('newest event - should run after 0.5 second'); } );

// LETS CALL RESIZE EVENT MANUALLY MULTIPLE TIMES (OR YOU CAN RESIZE YOUR BROWSER WINDOW) TO SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN
jQuery(window).resize().resize().resize().resize().resize().resize().resize();

USAGE OUTPUT:

first event - should run after 0.4 seconds
newest event - should run after 0.5 second
third event - should run after 3.0 seconds

PLUGIN:

jQuery.fn.resizeDelayed = (function(){

    // >>> THIS PART RUNS ONLY ONCE - RIGHT NOW

    var rd_funcs = [], rd_counter = 1, foreachResizeFunction = function( func ){ for( var index in rd_funcs ) { func(index); } };

            return this; // RETURN JQUERY OBJECT

        }

        // SHOULD WE DELETE THE EXISTING FUNCTION(S) INSTEAD OF CREATING A NEW ONE?

                        clearTimeout( rd_funcs[index].timeout );

                });

                rd_funcs = [];

                return this; // RETURN JQUERY OBJECT

            }

                return this; // RETURN JQUERY OBJECT

            }

        }

        // NOW, FIRST PARAM MUST BE THE FUNCTION
        if( typeof func_or_false != "function" )
            return this; // RETURN JQUERY OBJECT

        // SET THE DEFAULT DELAY TIME IF ITS NOT ALREADY SET

        if( typeof id == "undefined" )
            id = rd_counter;

        // ADD NEW FUNCTION TO RESIZE EVENT
        rd_funcs[id] = {
            func : func_or_false,
            delay: delay_or_id,
            timeout : false
        };

        rd_counter++;

        return this; // RETURN JQUERY OBJECT

    }

})();

Assuming that the mouse cursor should return to the document after window resize, we can create a callback-like behavior with onmouseover event. Don't forget that this solution may not work for touch-enabled screens as expected.

var resizeTimer;
var resized = false;
$(window).resize(function() {
   clearTimeout(resizeTimer);
   resizeTimer = setTimeout(function() {
       if(!resized) {
           resized = true;
           $(document).mouseover(function() {
               resized = false;
               // do something here
               $(this).unbind("mouseover");
           })
       }
    }, 500);
});

This is what i've implemented:

$(window).resize(function(){ setTimeout(someFunction, 500); });

we can clear the setTimeout if we expect resize to happen less than 500ms

Good Luck...

Many Solutions. I tried to do the event after a mouuseevent so I addded the reload just after ouse enters the window:

jQuery(window).resize(function() {
        // this. is window
        if(  this.resizeTO) {
            clearTimeout(this.resizeTO) 
        };
    
         this.resizeTO = setTimeout(function() {
            
                jQuery(window).mouseenter(function() {
                    if( jQuery(window).width() < 700 &&   jQuery(window).width() > 400 ){
                        console.log("mouseenter  reloads elements"); 
                        // is loading the page  
                        location.reload();
                        //
                     }; // just mobile
                }); // mouse  fired    
        }, 400);  // set Time Ouuut
});
