Simple Example

The most important parts of this framework are the Dispatcher class and the event() decorator. Dispatcher is a base class for objects that want to broadcast events and the event decorator is used to register events.

>>> from kemepo import Dispatcher, event
>>> class Button (Dispatcher):
        @event
        def on_press(self):
            print('Calling internal handler')

The method decorated by event() is taken to be the “internal handler”, distinct from any “external observers” that may be attached using connect() later on. When an event is triggered using handle(), the internal handler is called before the external observers.

>>> button = Button()
>>> button.connect(on_press=lambda: print('Calling external observer.'))
>>> button.handle('on_press')
Calling internal handler.
Calling external observer.
