Custom event plugins

If you need to adapt some custom SrContainerObjectTree changes which can not be configured to your needs, SrContainerObjectTree will trigger some events, you can listen and react to this in an other custom plugin (plugin type is no matter)

First create or extend a plugin.xml in your custom plugin (You need to adapt PLUGIN_ID with your own plugin id) to tell ILIAS, your plugins wants to listen to SrContainerObjectTree events (You need also to increase your plugin version for take effect)

<?php xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>
<plugin id="PLUGIN_ID">
	<events>
		<event id="Plugins/SrContainerObjectTree" type="listen" />
	</events>
</plugin>

In your plugin class implement or extend the handleEvent method

...
require_once __DIR__ . "/../../SrContainerObjectTree/vendor/autoload.php";
...
class ilXPlugin extends ...
...
	/**
	 * @inheritDoc
	 */
	public function handleEvent(/*string*/ $a_component, /*string*/ $a_event, /*array*/ $a_parameter)/* : void*/ {
		switch ($a_component) {
			case IL_COMP_PLUGIN . "/" . ilSrContainerObjectTreePlugin::PLUGIN_NAME:
				switch ($a_event) {
					case ilSrContainerObjectTreePlugin::EVENT_...:
						...
						break;

					default:
						break;
				}
				break;

			default:
				break;
		}
	}
...
