Event System

The Event System in Matrix Framework handles the propagation and processing of events through the middleware tree.

Overview

Events can flow through the tree in different ways:

• Bubble up from child to parent
• Tunnel down from parent to child
• Direct routing to specific nodes

Key Features

• Event Types: Support for different event types and priorities
• Routing Strategies: Flexible routing through the tree
• Event Context: Rich context object passed with events
• Async Processing: Full support for async event handlers

Example

// Define an event handler
element.on("message", async (ctx, next) => {
    console.log("Processing message");
    await next();
});

// Route an event
await element.routeEvent(new MiddlewareEvent("message"));
