Events

Berlioz framework provides an event dispatcher. He’s accessible by method Core::getEventDispatcher() or by container.

Listen an event

With Subscriber

You can create a subscriber to listen some events. Subscriber class must implement \Berlioz\EventManager\Subscriber\SubscriberInterface interface.

You can help you of \Berlioz\EventManager\Subscriber\AbstractSubscriber abstract class. This class provides dynamic listens() method.

Example:

use Berlioz\EventManager\Provider\ListenerProviderInterface;
use Berlioz\EventManager\Subscriber\AbstractSubscriber;

class MySubscriber extends AbstractSubscriber
{
    protected array $listens = [
        'anEvent',        
        'aSecondEvent',        
    ];

    /**
     * @inheritDoc
     */
    protected function subscribe(ListenerProviderInterface $provider): void
    {
        $provider->addEventListener('anEvent', [$this, 'doSomething']);
        $provider->addEventListener('aSecondEvent', [$this, 'doSomethingElse']);
    }

    public function doSomething($event): void
    {
        // ...
    }

    public function doSomethingElse($event): void
    {
        // ...
    }
}

Subscribers must be declared in configuration:

{
    "events": {
        "subscribers": [
            "MySubscriber"
        ]
    }
}

It’s recommended to use subscribers to listen events, and explode by work. In this case, only necessaries listeners are declared to the dispatcher.

Without Subscriber

If you want listen event without subscriber, you need to declare event and callback into the configuration:

{
    "events": {
        "listeners": {
            "AnEvent": "MyWebsite\\Event\\MyListener::doSomething",
            "ASecondEvent": [
                "MyWebsite\\Event\\MyListener::doSomethingElse",
                {
                    "callback": "MyWebsite\\Event\\MyListener::doSomethingElse",
                    "priority": 10
                }
            ]
        }
    }
}

Prefers subscribers to have the best performances.

Trigger an event

You can trigger a specific event with trigger method.

/** @var \Berlioz\Core\Event\EventDispatcher $eventDispatcher */
$eventDispatcher->trigger('myEvent', []);

The original event can contain some necessary data.

Dispatch an event

Your application can dispatch events with method dispatch of event dispatcher.

You can use \Berlioz\EventManager\Event\CustomEvent class to generate simple events.

Example:

use Berlioz\EventManager\Event\CustomEvent;

$myEvent = new CustomEvent('myEventName', ['foo' => 'bar']);

/** @var \Berlioz\Core\Event\EventDispatcher $eventDispatcher */
$eventDispatcher->dispatch($myEvent);

// ...all listeners whose listens 'myEventName' will be triggered
