Events
Events are used to communicate between different aspects of the Nextcloud eco system. They are used in the Nextcloud server internally, for server-to-apps communication as well as inter-app communication.
Overview
The term “events” is a bit broad in Nextcloud and there are multiple ways of emitting them.
OCP event dispatcher
This mechanism is a versatile and typed approach to events in Nextcloud’s php code. It uses objects rather than just passing primitives or untyped arrays. This should help provide a better developer experience while lowering the risk of unexpected changes in the API that are hard to find after the initial implementation.
Naming scheme
The name should reflect the subject and the actions. Suffixing event classes with Event makes it easier to recognize their purpose.
For example, if a user is created, a UserCreatedEvent will be emitted.
Events are usually emitted after the event has happened. If it’s emitted before, it should be prefixed with Before.
Thus BeforeUserCreatedEvent is emitted before the user data is written to the database.
Note
Although you may choose to name your event classes differently, sticking to the convention will allow Nextcloud developers understand each other’s apps more easily.
Note
For backwards compatibility with the Symfony class GenericEvent, Nextcloud also provides a \OCP\EventDispatcher\Event class. With the release of Nextcloud 22 this class has been deprecated. Named and typed event classes should be used instead.
Writing events
As a rule events are dedicated classes extending \OCP\EventDispatcher\Event.
<?php
use OCP\EventDispatcher\Event;
namespace OCA\MyApp\Event;
class AddEvent extends Event {}
The event above allows signalling that something happened. But in many cases you want to actually transport data like the affected resource with the event. Then the events act as simple data transfer objects. Therefore they need a constructor that takes the arguments, private members to store them and getters to access the values in listeners.
<?php
use OCP\EventDispatcher\Event;
use OCP\IUser;
class UserCreatedEvent extends Event {
private IUser $user;
public function __construct(IUser $user) {
parent::__construct();
$this->user = $user;
}
public function getUser(): IUser {
return $this->user;
}
}
Writing a listener
A listener can be a simple callback function (or anything else that is callable, or a dedicated class.
Listener callbacks
You can use simple callback to react on events. They will receive the event object as first and only parameter. You can type-hint the base Event class or the subclass you expect and register for.
<?php
use OCA\MyApp\Event\AddEvent;
use OCP\AppFramework\App;
use OCP\EventDispatcher\IEventDispatcher;
namespace OCA\MyApp\AppInfo;
class Application extends App {
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct('myapp');
/* @var IEventDispatcher $dispatcher */
$dispatcher = $this->getContainer()->query(IEventDispatcher::class);
$dispatcher->addListener(AddEvent::class, function(AddEvent $event) {
// ...
});
}
}
Note
Type-hinting the actual event class will give you better IDE and static analyzers support. It’s generally safe to assume the dispatcher will not give you any other objects.
Listener classes
A class that can handle an event will implement the \OCP\EventDispatcher\IEventListener interface. Class names should end with Listener.
<?php
use OCA\MyApp\Event\AddEvent;
use OCP\EventDispatcher\Event;
use OCP\EventDispatcher\IEventListener;
namespace OCA\MyApp\Event;
class AddTwoListener implements IEventListener {
public function handle(Event $event): void {
if (!($event instanceOf AddEvent)) {
return;
}
$event->addToCounter(2);
}
}
Note
Php parameter type hints are not allowed to be more specific than the type hints on the interface, thus you can’t use AddEvent in the method signature but use an instanceOf instead.
In the Application.php the event and the listener class are connected. The class is instantiated only when the actual event is fired.
<?php
use OCA\MyApp\Event\AddEvent;
use OCA\MyApp\Listener\AddTwoListener;
use OCP\AppFramework\App;
use OCP\EventDispatcher\IEventDispatcher;
namespace OCA\MyApp\AppInfo;
class Application extends App {
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct('myapp');
/* @var IEventDispatcher $eventDispatcher */
$dispatcher = $this->getContainer()->get(IEventDispatcher::class);
$dispatcher->addServiceListener(AddEvent::class, AddTwoListener::class);
}
}
Note
The listener is resolved via the DI container, therefore you can add a constructor and type-hint services required for processing the event.

Hooks
Deprecated since version 18: Use the OCP event dispatcher instead.
Hooks are used to execute code before or after an event has occurred. This is for instance useful to run cleanup code after users, groups or files have been deleted. Hooks should be registered in the app.php:
<?php
namespace OCA\MyApp\AppInfo;
$app = new Application();
$app->getContainer()->query('UserHooks')->register();
The hook logic should be in a separate class that is being registered in the App constructor:
<?php
namespace OCA\MyApp\AppInfo;
use \OCP\AppFramework\App;
use \OCA\MyApp\Hooks\UserHooks;
class Application extends App {
public function __construct(array $urlParams=array()){
parent::__construct('myapp', $urlParams);
$container = $this->getContainer();
/**
* Controllers
*/
$container->registerService('UserHooks', function($c) {
return new UserHooks(
$c->get(\OCP\IUserManager::class)
);
});
}
}
<?php
namespace OCA\MyApp\Hooks;
use OCP\IUserManager;
class UserHooks {
private $userManager;
public function __construct(IUserManager $userManager){
$this->userManager = $userManager;
}
public function register() {
$callback = function($user) {
// your code that executes before $user is deleted
};
$this->userManager->listen('\OC\User', 'preDelete', $callback);
}
}
Available hooks
The scope is the first parameter that is passed to the listen method, the second parameter is the method and the third one the callback that should be executed once the hook is being called, e.g.:
<?php
// listen on user predelete
$callback = function($user) {
// your code that executes before $user is deleted
};
$userManager->listen('\OC\User', 'preDelete', $callback);
Hooks can also be removed by using the removeListener method on the object:
<?php
// delete previous callback
$userManager->removeListener(null, null, $callback);
The following hooks are available:
Session
