Understanding this use of addeventlistener in Cordova

Asked

Hello, studying a little about Cordova and Phonegap, specifically the default application, Helloworld, I noticed the line: Document.addeventlistener('deviceready', this.onDeviceReady, false); which is in a js file (index.js). So, as far as I know, addeventlistener, from what I saw in W3school, it has the event as the first parameter, the function as the second, and an optional boolean as the third. But in the example I put, the 'deviceready' which is the element, is in the place of the event? Is that? and this "this" in the parameter: "thisonDeviceReady". Because I have used addeventlistener several times like this: [Document.getElementById('elementox'). addeventlistener('click',myfunction); that’s why I didn’t understand. I ask for help on this. I think the answer/explanation, may be in the code (commented) Phonegap, but, besides being in English, I saw and reviewed, but I could not understand.

Here are the codes:

Solved. Actually, the event "deviceready" is own (specific) Cordova, therefore, it is not part of the list of Javascript events. And this event is for two main things: certifying that the device triggered by Cordova is a mobile, and certifying that the Cordova plugins have been loaded and are already available in memory for calls. Thank you all.
