Registering Event Callbacks
Purpose
@TODO
In this article
main Events
Callbacks for main events exist under the renderer. There are two main hooks provided for registering callbacks: useEventCallback and useEventCallbackDeferred. Plural forms of these hooks also exist, which accept Records, such that each key is an event channel, and its corresponding value is the callback that you wish to register.
As one might expect, useEventCallback registers the given callback when the containing component mounts, and unregisters the callback when the containing component unmounts.
The useEventCallbackDeferred hook returns a registerCallback function, to be called later. The corresponding hook useUnregisterEventCallbackDeferred returns a function to unregister a given callback.
renderer Events
Callbacks for renderer events exist under main. Simply call handle and provide the channel and callback.
