During the life cycle of a plumber API various events will be fired, either automatically or manually. See the article on events in fiery for a full overview. api_on() allows you to add handlers that are called when specific events fire. api_off() can be used to remove the handler if necessary

api_on(api, event, handler, id = NULL)

api_off(api, id)

Arguments

api

A plumber2 api object to launch or stop

event

A string naming the event to listen for

handler
