-==============================================================================================
-1. Introduction to Internal Events
-==============================================================================================
-
- Internal Events are setup to give module developers more information about what the core
-is doing at different times. This information can be as complex as data we are feeding to the
-uplink, to simple triggered events such as the databases being saved. A list of triggered
-events can be found below. Additional there is a module included with the core which can
-provide some clue as to how to use the code in your modules. The rest of this document assumes
-that you are used to writting modules.
-
-==============================================================================================
-2. Complex Events
-==============================================================================================
-
- This type of events are based around what happens when we talk to the IRCD, much like
-MESSAGE events that the IRCD sends to us. The events are triggered when Anope writes to the
-ircd. To watch for these events you must have some knowledge of how the IRCD command system
-works. In our example we will trap for NICK events.
-
-A. All functions most be formatted as
-
- int functioname(char *source, int ac, char **av);
-
-B. In AnopeInit you must declare EvtMessage in some fashion, it is into this variable that
- we will create the event handler. Here is what the base AnopeInit should look like at
- this point.
-
- int AnopeInit(int argc, char **argv)
- {
- EvtMessage *msg = NULL;
- int status;
-
- moduleAddAuthor(AUTHOR);
- moduleAddVersion(VERSION);
- return MOD_CONT;
- }
-
-C. Pass "createEventHandler" the name of the message in this case NICK, and the function
- that was created in Step A. At this point you should assign the return of
- "createEventHandler" to the EvtMessage variable.
-
- msg = createEventHandler("NICK", my_nick);
-
-D. The Handler is not ready for use, now you must add it to the hash, with
- "moduleAddEventHandler", you will want to pass to this function the return
- of "createEventHandler"
-
- status = moduleAddEventHandler(msg);
-
- it will return the module error code so you can confirm that it was added
- correctly.
-
-E. With that setup in your function you will be passed 3 items. The source most of the time
- this will be set to ServerName or NULL, consult our ircd documentation about how messages
- are formatted. AC is the count of variables you will find in AV.
-
- int my_nick(char *source, int ac, char **av)
- {
- alog("Internal Event - nick is %s",av[0]);
- return MOD_CONT;
- }
-
-==============================================================================================
-3. Triggered Events
-==============================================================================================
-
- These events also known as "event hooks" are internal events such as expiring of nicks to
-the saving of databases.
-
-A. All functions most be formatted as
-
- int functioname(char *message);
-
-B. In AnopeInit you must declare EvtHook in some fashion, it is into this variable that
- we will create the event handler. Here is what the base AnopeInit should look like at
- this point.
-
- int AnopeInit(int argc, char **argv)
- {
- EvtHook *hook = NULL;
- int status;
-
- moduleAddAuthor(AUTHOR);
- moduleAddVersion(VERSION);
- return MOD_CONT;
- }
-
-C. Pass "createEventHook" the name of the event, in this case we are going to hook to the
- saving of databases, "EVENT_DB_SAVING"
-
- hook = createEventHook(EVENT_DB_SAVING, my_save);
-
-D. The Handler is not ready for use, now you must add it to the hash, with
- "moduleAddEventHook", you will want to pass to this function the return
- of "createEventHook"
-
- status = moduleAddEventHook(hook);
-
- it will return the module error code so you can confirm that it was added
- correctly.
-
-E. With that setup in your function you will be passed 1 items, the message is very simple
- it could be as simple as a start, stop or message. In the case of saving it has a start
- and stop
-
- int my_save(char *source)
- {
-
- if (!stricmp(source, EVENT_START)) {
- alog("Saving the databases! has started");
- } else {
- alog("Saving the databases is complete");
- }
- return MOD_CONT;
- }
