@DoNotStore public interface Event
An event called within Sponge.

This is a marker interface, which must be implemented by any event used with the Sponge event bus.

  • Method Summary

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    Cause
    cause()
    Gets the cause for the event.
    default EventContext
    context()
    Gets the context of the event.
    default Object
    source()
    Gets the source of the event (the first object in the cause).

  • Method Details

    • cause

      Cause cause()
      Gets the cause for the event. The Cause of the event is an object which implements the Iterable interface. So, when investigating the Cause of the event a common idiom is to use operations (functions) on the result of cause as follows:

      Use-case: Getting the Player (if any) responsible: Optional<Player> optPlayer = event.cause().first(Player.class);

      Returns:
      The cause

    • source

      default Object source()
      Gets the source of the event (the first object in the cause).
      Returns:
      The event source

    • context

      default EventContext context()
      Gets the context of the event.
      Returns:
      The event context
