Component body
This module dispatches events for several Drupal core hooks. This allows you to use the D8 Event Subscriber system, instead of the outdated hook system, to react on certain events. The module includes events for the most common hooks.
Currently this module dispatches events for the following hooks:
- Block
- Entity
- EntityField
- Form
- Path
- Preprocess
- Token
- Views
If you want to see new events registered, open an issue in the issue queue and we will try to add it. Hopefully, in the near future, this will be in D8 core...
Examples
The module contains some examples on how to subscribe to certain events.
