# Event Framework

A lightweight event-driven framework in Python that allows you to define events, subscribe handlers, and publish them through a central publisher.  
It is designed with clarity, maintainability, and extensibility in mind.

---
Got it Tony — here’s the imports section rewritten in **English Markdown**, clear and concise, showing exactly how users should import from your `saul_events` package:

---

## Imports

The root package is **`saul_events`**.  
From there you can import the main components directly:

```python
from py-events import (
    EventPublisher,
    EventMiddleware,
    MiddlewarePipeline,
    event_handler,
    Event
)
```

Exceptions are imported from the `exceptions` submodule:

```python
from py-events.exceptions import (
    MissingEventError,
    EventSubclassRequiredError,
    InvalidEventTypeError,
    UnannotatedEventParameterError
)

```

---

This makes it clear:  
- **Non-error classes/functions** (`EventPublisher`, `EventMiddleware`, `MiddlewarePipeline`, `event_handler`, `Event`) are imported directly from `saul_events`.
- **Errors/exceptions** are imported from `py_event.exceptions`.  

## ⚙️ Components

### 1. `Event` (event.py)

```python
class Event:
    """
    Immutable base class for all events in the framework.

    Every custom event must inherit from this class. Because the base class
    is decorated with `@attr.frozen`, all subclasses are automatically frozen
    as well. This ensures that event instances cannot be modified after
    creation, preserving consistency and traceability across the system.

    Attributes:
        id (uuid.UUID): A unique identifier automatically generated when
            the event is created.
        timestamp (datetime.datetime): The exact date and time when the
            event instance was created.
        type (str): The name of the event class, useful for distinguishing
            event types during dispatching and logging.

    Usage:
        @attr.frozen
        class UserLoginEvent(Event):
            username: str

        # Example instantiation
        login_event = UserLoginEvent("John Doe")
        print(login_event.id)        # Unique UUID
        print(login_event.timestamp) # Creation time
        print(login_event.type)      # "UserLoginEvent"

    """
```

**Usage Example:**
```python
      @attr.frozen
        class UserLoginEvent(Event):
            username: str
                    # Example instantiation
        login_event = UserLoginEvent("John Doe")
        print(login_event.id)        # Unique UUID
        print(login_event.timestamp) # Creation time
        print(login_event.type)      # "UserLoginEvent"
```

---

### 2. `EventPublisher` (publisher.py)

```python
class EventPublisher(Singleton):
    """
    Central event dispatcher and subscription manager.

    The EventPublisher manages event listeners and dispatches events to their
    corresponding handlers. It ensures a single publisher instance across the
    application.

    Methods:
        publish(event: Event): Dispatches an event to all subscribed listeners.
        subscribe(event_class: Type[Event], event_listener: EventListener):
            Subscribes a listener to an event class.
        unsubscribe(event: Type[Event], listener_method: Callable):
            Removes a listener method from an event class.
        unsubscribe_all(): Clears all registered listeners.
    """
```

**Usage Example:**
```python
publisher = EventPublisher(debug=True, in_order=True)

# Subscribe a handler
publisher.subscribe(UserLoginEvent, EventListener(order=1, method=handle_login))

# Publish an event
publisher.publish(UserLoginEvent(username="Tony"))

# Unsubscribe a handler
publisher.unsubscribe(UserLoginEvent, handle_login)

# Clear all listeners
publisher.unsubscribe_all()
```

Got it Tony — here’s the full documentation and examples in **English Markdown**, ready to copy‑paste directly:

---

## `event_handler` Decorator (`handler.py`)

```python
def event_handler(
    publisher: EventPublisher,
    event_class: Type[Event] | FrozenSet[Event] = None,
    order: int = None
):
    """
    Decorator used to register a function as an event handler.

    Supports two modes:
    1. Explicit subscription: Provide `event_class` to subscribe directly.
    2. Annotation-based subscription: If `event_class` is not provided,
       parameter annotations of the function are inspected to determine
       which events to subscribe to.

    Exceptions:
    - UnannotatedEventParameterError:
        Raised if the decorated function has parameters without type annotations.
    - EventSubclassRequiredError:
        Raised if the annotated parameter type is not a subclass of `Event`.
    """
```

---

### ✅ Correct Usage Example

```python
@event_handler(publisher, UserLoginEvent, order=1)
def handle_login(event: UserLoginEvent):
    print(f"User {event.username} logged in")

# Or using parameter annotations:
@event_handler(publisher)
def handle_login(event: UserLoginEvent):
    print(f"User {event.username} logged in")
```

---

### ⚠️ Example Raising `UnannotatedEventParameterError`

```python
@event_handler(publisher)
def handle_login(event):  # ❌ Missing type annotation
    print(f"User {event.username} logged in")
```

---

### ⚠️ Example Raising `EventSubclassRequiredError`

```python
class NotAnEvent:
    pass

@event_handler(publisher)
def handle_invalid(event: NotAnEvent):  # ❌ Not a subclass of Event
    print("This should never be executed")
```

---

### Example: Using EventMiddleware

```python
from event import Event
from middlewares import EventMiddleware, MiddlewarePipeline

class UserLoginEvent(Event):
    def __init__(self, username: str):
        super().__init__()
        self.username = username

class LoggingMiddleware(EventMiddleware):
    def process(self, event, next_middl):
        print(f"[Start] {event.type}")
        result = next_middl(event)
        print(f"[End] {event.type}")
        return result

pipeline = MiddlewarePipeline()
pipeline.add(LoggingMiddleware(order=1))

```

---

## 🚀 Getting Started

1. Define your custom events by inheriting from `Event`.
2. Create an `EventPublisher` instance.
3. Use the `event_handler` decorator or `subscribe` method to register handlers.
4. Publish events with `publisher.publish(event)`.

---

## 🧩 Example Workflow

```python
# event.py
      @attr.frozen
        class UserLoginEvent(Event):
            username: str

# handler.py
@event_handler(publisher, UserLoginEvent, order=1)
def handle_login(event: UserLoginEvent):
    print(f"User {event.username} logged in")

# main.py
publisher.publish(UserLoginEvent(username="Tony"))
```

---

## 📖 Notes

- `EventPublisher` is a **Singleton**, ensuring only one dispatcher exists.
- Handlers can be executed in order if `in_order=True`.
  
``` python
- class EventListener:
    """
    If you want to manually subscribe events, you must create an instance of this class.

    Example:
        def handle_user_login(event):
            print(f"User {event.username} logged in")

        listener = EventListener(order=1, method=handle_user_login)
        publisher.subscribe(UserLoginEvent, listener)
    """
    def __init__(self, order: int, method: Callable):
        self.method = method
        self.order = order
```

---

## ✅ Conclusion

This framework provides a simple yet powerful way to implement event-driven programming in Python.  
It is extensible, easy to maintain, and supports both explicit and annotation-based handler registration.
