How can I add an event listener for all events in javascript without listing them individually?

There's no wild card, but using jQuery you can have 1 long event listener line, rather than multiple.

How do you log all events fired by an element in jQuery?

Like so:

('body').on("click mousedown mouseup focus blur keydown change dblclick mousemove mouseover mouseout mousewheel keydown keyup keypress textInput touchstart touchmove touchend touchcancel resize scroll zoom select change submit reset",function(e){
     console.log(e);
}); 

There is no feature to add a * listener, and I doubt if you want hundreds of events on an element being listened for anyway.

By the way, instead of your roll-your-own architecture for a generic event handler in the form of your myObject.controller, you should use the under-appreciated approach involving the EventListener interface and the handleEvent method it defines.

A little late to the party, but here's how I add all event listeners & log them to the console:

Object.keys(window).forEach(key => {
    if(/./.test(key)){
        window.addEventListener(key.slice(2), event => {
            console.log(key, event)
        })
    }
})
