Listeners

If you won’t use .listen method on an instance, then you’ll need to specify selectors to a class constructor:

var geokb = new Geokeyboard('#input1, #input2');

Above code starts listening to those two elements automatically.

You can call .listen on an instance later and also chain on it:

geokb.listen('#input3, #input4').listen('#input5');

Default options for selectors are:

{
    replaceOnType: true, // If transformation to Georgian is enabled or not
    replaceOnPaste: false, // If pasted text should be processed to Georgian
    hotSwitch: true, // If language switch is supported for an element or not
    change: null, // Function to call when an element gets changed
}

In following example, we are having non-Georgian letters initially on first input, and turn off hot switch on the second element:

new Geokeyboard('#input1', {}, {
    replaceOnType: false
}).listen('#input2', {
    hotSwitch: false
});

See an example at JSFiddle.

Having a reference to instance variable, you can call .listen to add selectors, or change options for existing selectors anytime in your code.
