| 1 | +# Event System |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +The Event System in PySpring provides a powerful way to implement event-driven architecture in your applications. It allows components to communicate in a decoupled manner through events, following the publish-subscribe pattern. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +## Overview |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +The Event System consists of two main components: |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +1. `ApplicationEventPublisher`: The core component for publishing events |
| 10 | +2. `ApplicationEventHandlerRegistry`: Manages event handler registration and execution |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +## Key Features |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +- Thread-safe event publishing mechanism |
| 15 | +- Decorator-based event listener registration |
| 16 | +- Asynchronous event processing |
| 17 | +- Type-safe events using Pydantic models |
| 18 | +- Automatic event handler initialization |
| 19 | +- Integration with the component system |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +## Usage |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +### Creating Events |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +Events are defined as Pydantic models that inherit from `ApplicationEvent`: |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +```python |
| 28 | +from py_spring_core import ApplicationEvent |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +class MyEvent(ApplicationEvent): |
| 31 | + message: str |
| 32 | +``` |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +### Publishing Events |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +To publish events, inject the `ApplicationEventPublisher` into your component: |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +```python |
| 39 | +from py_spring_core import ApplicationEventPublisher, Component |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +class MyComponent(Component): |
| 42 | + event_publisher: ApplicationEventPublisher |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | + def do_something(self): |
| 45 | + self.event_publisher.publish(MyEvent(message="Hello World!")) |
| 46 | +``` |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +### Subscribing to Events |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +Use the `@EventListener` decorator to subscribe to events. Event listeners must inherit from the `Component` class: |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +```python |
| 53 | +from py_spring_core import Component, EventListener |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +class MyListener(Component): |
| 56 | + @EventListener(MyEvent) |
| 57 | + def handle_event(self, event: MyEvent): |
| 58 | + print(f"Received event: {event.message}") |
| 59 | +``` |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +The event listener will be automatically registered during application startup and will receive events of the specified type. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +## Technical Details |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +### Event Processing |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +- Events are processed asynchronously in a dedicated thread |
| 68 | +- The system uses a thread-safe queue for event distribution |
| 69 | +- Event handlers are automatically registered during application startup |
| 70 | +- Events are validated using Pydantic models |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +## Best Practices |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +1. **Event Design** |
| 76 | + - Keep events focused and specific |
| 77 | + - Use meaningful event names |
| 78 | + - Include only necessary data in events |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +2. **Event Handling** |
| 81 | + - Keep event handlers lightweight |
| 82 | + - Avoid long-running operations in event handlers |
| 83 | + - Use proper error handling in event handlers |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +## Example |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +Here's a complete example showing event publishing and handling: |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +```python |
| 90 | +from py_spring_core import ( |
| 91 | + ApplicationEvent, |
| 92 | + ApplicationEventPublisher, |
| 93 | + EventListener, |
| 94 | + Component |
| 95 | +) |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +# Define an event |
| 98 | +class UserCreatedEvent(ApplicationEvent): |
| 99 | + user_id: str |
| 100 | + username: str |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +# Publisher component |
| 103 | +class UserService(Component): |
| 104 | + event_publisher: ApplicationEventPublisher |
| 105 | + |
| 106 | + def create_user(self, username: str): |
| 107 | + user_id = "generated_id" # In real app, generate proper ID |
| 108 | + self.event_publisher.publish(UserCreatedEvent( |
| 109 | + user_id=user_id, |
| 110 | + username=username |
| 111 | + )) |
| 112 | + return user_id |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +class UserNotificationListener(Component): |
| 116 | + @EventListener(UserCreatedEvent) |
| 117 | + def send_welcome_email(self, event: UserCreatedEvent): |
| 118 | + print(f"Sending welcome email to: {event.username}") |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | +class UserEventListener(Component): |
| 121 | + @EventListener(UserCreatedEvent) |
| 122 | + def handle_user_created(self, event: UserCreatedEvent): |
| 123 | + print(f"New user created: {event.username} (ID: {event.user_id})") |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +``` |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +## Version Information |
| 128 | + |
| 129 | +This feature is available in PySpring version 0.0.11 and later. |
| 130 | + |
| 131 | +## Dependencies |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +The Event System is built into PySpring core and doesn't require additional dependencies. |
