avoid multiple remove events

I use backbone version 1.0.0 & underscore js. From my collection , i remove models that match some criteria.

myCollection.remove(myCollection.where({filterId: "1"}));

This will remove all the models inside my collection having filterId attribute == "1".

Now this is causing multiple change events for "remove" being fired when I have more than 1 model matching the criteria.

I want it to be fired only once when all matching models are removed. Please advice.

It is not possible to limit the remove event only once as Backbone triggers every time when a model is removed from a collection.

Instead you can filter the collection and listen for reset event. 

   var filtered = myCollection.filter(function(model) {
      return model.get("filterId") != 1;
    });

   myCollection.reset(filtered);
