Passing multiple arguments and event to event handler using bind()

by

I want to use the .bind solution to implement event handler as per some latest solution in this thread here.

However, suppose my original handler is as following:

const clickHandler = (arg1, arg2) => {
   ...do stuff...
}

let var1 = "text1"
let var2 = "text2"
myButton.addEventListener("click", clickHandler.bind(null, var1, var2))

If I need to add a line like this, which requires the event argument, to the handler:

const clickHandler = (arg1, arg2) => {
   event.stopPropagation()
   ...do stuff...
}

If I do without using .bind, this would work:

const clickHandler = (arg1, arg2) => {
   ...do stuff...
}

let var1 = "text1"
let var2 = "text2"
myButton.addEventListener("click", (event) => {
   event.stopPropagation()
   clickHandler(var1, var2)
})

But if I want to make it concise using .bind, how should I pass event into the handler? Thanks.
