Re: Cakephp3 Events and Listeners

OK, so i have my have my event listeners working now.

I was attempting to fire the event from a controller in a different plugin, and had not understood that you need to use the global event manager, and need to register the listeners in the bootstrap of the plugin that contains the listener.

I have read the chapter, but my populateUserPrefs function does not fire.

Is any one able to flesh out the example, or tell me that actually I cannot have a Table Model class implement EventListener?

Event listeners are implementations of Cake\Event\EventListener interface

also then you have to attach your event - something like

// Attach the UserStatistic object to the Order's event manager

$statistics = new UserStatistic();

$this->Orders->eventManager()->attach($statistics);

See http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/core-libraries/events.html#registering-listeners

Hi all. I have read the cakephp book on events in version 3, and I cannot seem to get it to work. I am missing a piece of comprehension. 

I have the event dispatch code in a controller:

$event = new Event('Controller.User.login', $this);

$this->eventManager()->dispatch($event);

and I have a model with the following code:

public function implementedEvents() {

    return [

        'Controller.User.login' => 'populateUserPrefs',

    ];

}

public function populateUserPrefs(Event $event, $user){

    Log::write(

        'info',

        'Prefs User Login: '

    );

}

But I am not hitting the populateUserPrefs function. I guess I need to add some code somewhere to register the model as a listener, but I cannot figure out how.
