|
This method can be used to emit an event that other plugins can hook. The
|
|
event name is prefixed with the plugin ID.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from lektor.pluginsystem import Plugin
|
|
|
|
|
|
class MyPlugin(Plugin):
|
|
|
|
def on_env_setup(self, **extra):
|
|
self.emit('setup', foo=42)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Another plugin can then hook this:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from lektor.pluginsystem import Plugin
|
|
|
|
|
|
class MyPlugin(Plugin):
|
|
|
|
def on_my_plugin_setup(self, foo, **extra):
|
|
print 'got %s' % foo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(This assumes the plugin id is set to `my-plugin` in `setup.py`)
