PHP 5.3/HHVM 3.3 or later

Installation

The recommended installation method for this library is by either adding the dependency to your composer.json.

{
	"require": {
		"onoi/event-dispatcher": "~1.0"
	}
}

Usage

class BarListener implements EventListener {

	public function execute( DispatchContext $dispatchContext = null ) {
		// Do something
	}

	public function isPropagationStopped() {
		return false;
	}
}
class ListenerCollectionRegistry implements EventListenerCollection {

	private $eventListenerCollection;

	public function __construct( EventListenerCollection $eventListenerCollection ) {
		$this->eventListenerCollection = $eventListenerCollection;
	}

	public function getCollection() {
		return $this->addToListenerCollection()->getCollection();
	}

	private function addToListenerCollection() {

		$this->eventListenerCollection->registerCallback( 'do.something', function() {
			// Do something
		} );

		$this->eventListenerCollection->registerListener( 'notify.bar', new BarListener() );

		return $this->eventListenerCollection;
	}
}
$eventDispatcherFactory = new EventDispatcherFactory();

$listenerCollectionRegistry = new ListenerCollectionRegistry(
	$eventDispatcherFactory->newGenericEventListenerCollection()
);

$eventDispatcher = $eventDispatcherFactory->newGenericEventDispatcher();
$eventDispatcher->addListenerCollection( $listenerCollectionRegistry );

class Foo {

	use EventDispatcherAwareTrait;

	public function doSomething() {

		// No context
		$this->eventDispatcher->dispatch( 'do.something' );

		$dispatchContext = new DispatchContext();
		$dispatchContext->set( 'dosomethingelse', new \stdClass );

		// Using `DispatchContext`
		$this->eventDispatcher->dispatch( 'notify.bar', $dispatchContext );

		// Using an array as context which is later converted into
		// a `DispatchContext`
		$this->eventDispatcher->dispatch( 'notify.foo', [ 'Bar' => 123 ] );
	}
}

$instance = new Foo();
$instance->setEventDispatcher( $eventDispatcher );
$instance->doSomething();
