Events

Since a message may contain a text, photo, document, etc., some events are special cases. For example a message has additional properties as it may contain a text, photo, or a document. When the client will receive a message here's how it will be parsed:

Here's how tgx-core handles this:

• Client will emit message ClientEvent.Message
• If the message is text:
  • Client will emit text ClientEvent.Text
• If the message is a photo:
  • Client will emit photo ClientEvent.Photo

And so on.

For events emitted alonside with ClientEvent.Message, you can check the events with params (message).

To know what events are emitted by the client, you may visit ClientEvent.

Listening to Events

tgx-core currently offers two methods to listen to your client's events.

Registry

For more information about registries, please visit Introduction.

EventEmitter

The client exetends an event emitter, you may directly listen to the client itself.

Client.on(ClientEvent.Ready, () => {
    console.log('Client is ready!')
})

Stopping an Event

To simply stop listening to an event, you can get the event from the events registry as it stores the registered events.

client.extensions.registries.events.get('ready').stop()

client.extensions.registries.events.get(ClientEvent.Ready).stop()

Resume

To resume you just invoke the listen method.

client.extensions.registries.events.get('ready').listen()

client.extensions.registries.events.get(ClientEvent.Ready).listen()
