EpiEvents - a library for simpler Episerver event handling

Install the library from the Episerver NuGet Feed:

Install-Package EpiEvents.Core

The library uses MediatR for event publishing and handling. You have to configure it in the StructureMap config.

Scan(x =>
{
    x.TheCallingAssembly();
    x.ConnectImplementationsToTypesClosing(typeof(INotificationHandler<>));
    x.ConnectImplementationsToTypesClosing(typeof(IAsyncNotificationHandler<>));
});
For<SingleInstanceFactory>().Use<SingleInstanceFactory>(ctx => t => ctx.GetInstance(t));
For<MultiInstanceFactory>().Use<MultiInstanceFactory>(ctx => t => ctx.GetAllInstances(t));
For<IMediator>().Use<Mediator>();

You also have to configure default settings for the EpiEvents.

For<EpiEvents.Core.ISettings>().Use<EpiEvents.Core.DefaultSettings>();

Default settings disable all loading events. Loading events cause Episerver to slow down. But you can enable those events in the appSettings.

<add key="EpiEvents:EnableLoadingEvents" value="true" />

Handling of an event is simple. Create MediatR's INotificationHandler with a type parameter of the event you want to handle.

public class SampleHandler : INotificationHandler<CreatedContent>
{
    public void Handle(CreatedContent notification)
    {
        // Handle your event
    }
}
