using Unicorn.call in multiple child elements

[jacksund]

I have a form that uses a select2 dropdown menu, where this menu is within a child element.

So my setup is essentially the doc's example with multiple-children plus the ignore-elements when editing one row (specifically one column in table will have a select2 element).

How do I pass the key to Unicorn.call? Would it be something like this:

Unicorn.call('row', 'example_key', 'select_state', this.value, this.selectedIndex)

Or is passing the key not necessary?

I think I found the solution. The first arg in Unicorn.call is componentNameOrKey:

So you can call the child component as follows:

Unicorn.call('example_key', 'select_state', this.value, this.selectedIndex)

Yep, that should work!
