Backbone.js event after view.render() is finished

Question

Does anyone know which event is fired after a view is rendered in backbone.js?

Answer 1

I realise this question is fairly old but I wanted a solution that allowed the same custom function to be called after every call to render, so came up with the following...

First, override the default Backbone render function:

var render = Backbone.View.prototype.render;
Backbone.View.prototype.render = function() {
    this.customRender();
    afterPageRender();
    render();
};

The above code calls customRender on the view, then a generic custom function (afterPageRender), then the original Backbone render function.

Then in my views, I replaced all instances of render functions with customRender:

initialize: function() {
    this.listenTo(this.model, 'sync', this.render);
    this.model.fetch();
},

customRender: function() {
    // ... do what you usually do in render()
}
