Available events

************
Introduction
************

Modoboa provides a simple API to interact with events. It understands
two kinds of events: 
 
* Those returning a value
* Those returning nothing

Listening to a specific event is achieved as follows::

    from modoboa.lib import events
    
    def callback(*args):
      pass
    
    events.register('event', callback)

You can also use the custom decorator ``events.observe``::

  @events.observe('event')
  def callback(*args):
    pass

``event`` is the event's name you want to listen to, ``callback`` is
the function that will be called each time this event is raised. Each
event impose to callbacks a specific prototype to respect. See below
for a detailled list.

To stop listening to as specific event, you must use the
``unregister`` function::

  events.unregister('event', callback)

The parameters are the same than those used with ``register``.

To unregister all events declared by a specific extension, use the
``unregister_extension`` function::

  events.unregister_extension([name])

``name`` is the extension's name but it is optional. Leave it empty to
let the function guess the name.
