This is a design document, explaining the design and vision for a HedgeDoc 2

|
feature. It is not a user guide and may or may not be fully implemented.

In HedgeDoc 2, we use an event system based on [EventEmitter2][eventemitter2].
|
|
|
|
It's used to reduce circular dependencies between different services and inform these services about changes.

|
|
|
|
|
HedgeDoc's system is basically [the system NestJS offers][nestjs/eventemitter].
|
|
|
|
The config for the `EventEmitterModule` is stored in `events.ts` and exported as `eventModuleConfig`.

|
|
|
In the same file enums for the event keys are defined. Each of these events is expected to be sent with an additional value.
|
|
|
|
In the enum definition a comment should tell you what exactly this value should be.
